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.

Keg at BD Dalston - Hackney. Pours black-brown with a small, creamy khaki head. Big artificial adjunct nose. Medium sweet flavour, some chocolate, toasted marshmallows, a little earth, raisins, moderate roast. Medium to full bodied, lightly oily, with fine carbonation. Lightly sticky finish, notes of burnt sugars, more marshmallows, vanilla beans, cocoa, roast, dark fruits. Enjoyable in a childish kind of way.

Black beer, thick light brown head. Malty, sugary smell. With milk chocolate and hazelnut this has a great praline quality with a brown sugar flavour there too. It does s very sweet so if you don't like your stouts too dessert-y this may not be one for you bit it's my cup of tea. Rich, sweet, nicely balanced. Great stuff.
