Tap Bar
Friday night delight
Twenty years after the brewery first opened its doors, our new tap bar and shop opened in the summer of 2023.
On Friday evenings from 4 to 9pm it's the perfect place to welcome battle-hardened regulars and new guests for a drink, a chat and something to eat.
We still have the covered seating area outside the brewery, which is where our 'guest chefs' cook up a treat each week, but the tap bar opposite is great for a relaxing pint, glass of wine, G&T or soft drink.
And remember our Secret Sobriety comes in at 0.5% so perfect for the designated driver!
On special occasions we also have live music at the tap room, which is available for private hire and has already been a big hit for parties.
Don't take our word for it though - pop in for a pint.
We look forward to welcoming you soon.
