Description
Independent Brewery born in Brighton.

The parent company took over the old Gloucester nightclub building and opened it as ⁠The North Laine Brewhouse in October 2012. Following success with the on-site kit, the owners expanded the concept, adopting and spinning off the Laine Brew Co name.

Laine Brew Co opened its large-scale brewing operations at Adversane in late 2016. The core beer range and flagship lines were transferred from North Laine to Adversane. North Laine Brewhouse kept operational for small-batch experimental beers, seasonal releases, brewery fresh and collaboration brews, mostly issued under North Laine Brews branding, until effectively ceasing in 2020. Formally closed September 2025 when the internal brewing division was shut down, although the venue remains open.

Note - This entry is for beers brewed in Brighton and discontinued prior to the establishment of Laine Brew Co in Adversane, and experimental etc beers brewed in Brighton after.
