Description
UnBarred was established in 2014 from the shed of our founder and Head Brewer Jordan Mower. Born of a passion to brew uncompromising and exciting beer, our original flagship IPA won the Bev Robbins Award for the Best Sussex Beer in its first year of production. We soon outgrew the shed and moved onto gypsy brewing, enabling us to grow production and hone our craft, working together with other fabulous breweries.

Since establishing our taproom and brewery in the heart of Brighton in August 2019, we have doubled our production and embraced the Brighton community that we call home. Our core range is stocked nationwide, alongside ltd editions that embody the creativity, passion and freedom that have always defined our core ethos. We love to collaborate with other breweries that share those same values.

We’re inclusive, passionate and adventurous in everything we do, from our beer conception through to our design, brewing and welcoming taproom experience. To celebrate our roots, we love to work with local artists, independent businesses and fellow-creatives to showcase the best of the vibrant culture and boundless innovation of this beautiful city.

We are UnBarred.

440ml can bought at Vinmonopolet Bergen Storsenter. Coal black with a deep ruby glint, covering beige head, clingy lacing. Promising malt-driven aromas, nicely roasted grain, hints of liquorice. Well blended dark malt-forward taste character, featuring caramel, chocolate, liquorice and ash. A coffee twist to a roasted ending. Quite enjoying. (Hotel room, Bergen 11.06.2022).

440ml can bought from the Offie, Leicester and drunk at home. The colour is light orange/gold and hazy with a white head. Big apricot frozen yogurt pop aroma. The sweet taste doesn’t last and becomes quite bitter quite quickly. More apricot/peach flavours but I’m getting less of the honey. Long bitter finish. Thin body, heavy carbonation. Strange but not bad.

Keg at Awakening Fest last, Gosport. Aroma is surprisingly sour with vague malty streak. Opaque dark brown. Foamy thin light beige head. Sour berry edge but primarily malty and chocolate. Light-medium bodied. Light creamy body. Flat-average carbonation. Abrupt finish. Hmm. Doesn't do much for me.
