## About

Daydreaming from desk jobs, we were constantly living with our head in the clouds.
Emails, meetings, empty staplers, jammed and inkless printers, End of Month, synergies. It’s not hard to want something more.
We don’t think we’re alone in this – we know you can relate to wanting to escape the daily grind. But for us it was more a dream of embracing the daily mash.

Brewing was always our weekly escape, a creative outlet, a passionate hobby, and even a side-hustle as we tried to live two lives.
But now we’re diving in head-first to make this more than a dream.
Come share the fruits of our labour and love, with a local or three, at Plant 3, Bowden.
