## About

Anarchy Brew Co. started life back in 2012 in Morpeth, Northumberland, and has built up a reputation for producing quality beers packed with well-balanced flavours. Following on from the success of core beers such as Blonde Star and Citra Star, the brewery has expanded over the past seven years to creating more iconic beers, in keg, cask, and 440ml cans.

October 2018 saw the brewery move to a bigger site in Walkergate, Newcastle upon Tyne, with the addition of a new taproom playing host to tap takeovers, brewer meet-ups, gigs, DJ sets, and other popular events every Friday and Saturday.

Beers from Anarchy Brew Co. can now be found across the globe, proving popular in Russia, Italy, Finland, and many other countries, and with recent collaborations with 7 Fjell Bryggeri (Norway), plus several more in the pipeline, the brewery continues to go from strength to strength, ably assisted by the incredible artwork of designer Josh Tinsley (Studio Tinsley), plus collaborations with local roller derby team, Tyne & Fear, and local UK artist, Ryan Roadkill.

The brewery has won numerous awards, including a Certificate of Excellence for Buried in Hops (Brussels Beer Challenge 2019),  ‘UK Country Winner – Gluten-free’ for Exile (World Beer Awards 2018), ‘Best Pale Ale’ for Urban Assault (World Beer Awards 2017), and ‘Best Stout in the UK & Europe’ for Sublime Chaos (World Beer Awards 2015).
