Description
Founded in 2006 in a renovated farm building which overlooks Beeston church and the tranquil valley beyond. which provides a perfect setting to craft our fine beers.

Sustainability and locality is at the heart of what we do. Our water comes from deep in the Norfolk chalk from our private supply beneath the brewery, and is perfect for brewing real ale.

Our main ingredient, Maris Otter malting barley is grown locally at Branthill Farm on the Holkham Estate. This is some of he finest malting barley on the planet.
