## About

Buxton Brewery’s first ever brew was mashed-in on a cold, dark, January 1st, 2009. The brewhouse was the family garage and the batch size was about 40 litres. 

Fast-forward 14 years and the team, which has steadily grown to be 20 strong is now based in a 7000 square foot modern building on Staden Lane, Buxton. Its custom designed and (British) built brewhouse produces around 3500 litres per brew, 8-10 times per week. The brewery has a core range of 9 beers brewed all year round and will make more than 30 seasonals and one-offs in 2024 comprising of special editions, beers from the archive and beers so good we expect them to be core range soon! Innovation and super-high quality are the prime goals, along with a nod to tradition and an almost maniacal attention to detail.

All of the beers the brewery produces are designed to delight the senses and enthral the drinker. Not all beers are created equal, some are big and strong and full of powerful hops and malts, others are lighter, and have subtle nuances of flavour and aroma. All are intended to be enjoyed as a lovingly hand made product, nurtured by a small team of dedicated beer lovers.
