Description
Mark, Sam and Olly Brooking brew the beer and the brewery is now run by Sam, keeping the business firmly in the family. Originally known as Sutton Brewing, South Hams Brewery moved to its present site overlooking the glorious Start Bay in 2003, with a 10-barrel plant and plenty of room and ambition to expand. We brew beers that like to travel and the full range of beers can be found and enjoyed in Devon and throughout the country, all created with the SHB seal of quality and craftsmanship.
South Hams Brewery has a real love for real ale. The good stuff! Honest, traditional brewing with passion, delivering consistently high quality real ales - what the punters wan With long standing classics, such as Eddystone and Devon Pride, and also producing several seasonal ales for the changing climate and palates - all brewed to the exacting SHB brewing quality standard. We'd love to introduce you to the small brewery that's very BIG on taste, and discover a range of ales that fully deliver on flavour and have proven to be extremely popular with pubs and restaurants alike.

Cask @ South Hams Taphouse, near Torcross. Darker golden with a thick head. Its strength is noticeable but has a very clean texture. There’s some fruitiness and it comes across as a pretty good IPA.

Bottle from Ashby’s of Salcombe, Malborough. Copper-red with a bubbly-frothy head. Has a nice red ale styling with gentle bittered malts, giving the ale a lower feel than its strength would suggest in terms of taste, but retains a fuller texture.
