Description
St.Ives Brewery was founded in 2010 by former publican Marco Amura and has steadily grown, experimented and learned a few lessons along the way. Boilers Golden Cornish Ale was our original session ale and remains as popular today as it was back then.

Recently we have consolidated a decade of experience and launched a new core range - we hope you enjoy them! We believe in 'The Art of Brewing'; heavily-hopped IPA's, modern classics and an incredible view from our tap room!

In 2015 we found our new home on Trenwith Burrows and set up our 10 brewers barrel plant along with gift shop and cafe above. With stunning views over St.Ives harbour and onwards to Godrevy Lighthouse, there could not be a more picturesque location to brew award winning beers.

In late 2022 the brewery moved to brand new premises in Hayle.

Sights & Swills Summer Holiday Beer#4. WOOL. Wool has a lovely countrified church at the back of the village-style town, not too far to walk but worth the detour if you spend time here. This beer bought close by in the local 'Spar' is a traditional English IPA and quite refreshing for it. It has a low but appealing fruitiness and a steady strength, with a good mouthfeel. Golden with a creamy head and creamy-ish texture

Sights & Swills Summer Holiday Beer#5. WOOL. 'Spar' found beer in the small Dorset village-style town of Wool, with its pretty thatched houses. Easier than most traditional IPA beers, but still not really sessionable. Decent though with mild tropical fruit notes in both aroma and taste, but remaining very British in terms of style.

Can from Beer52. Fairly hazy gold with small white top. Aroma of apricot, slightly jammy, flora, soft malts. Taste of soft apricot and mango fruitiness with a creamy oat and light floral bitterness. Medium bodied, fairly creamy for the strength, soft to fine carbonation. OK finish, could do with some more oomph but this is the best of the 4 St Ives beers I've tried to date. Quite tasty.
