BREWERY TAP
Try out the newly redecorated quirky and unique Tap Room – with a bar crafted from aged whiskey barrels, comfy sofas, a cosy wood burner, upcycled tables made from old brewery casks and historic hop garden images adorning the walls.
THE HANGAR
The Hangar, complete with hop picker and drying kiln, is used in September for harvesting. The rest of the year it doubles as a unique bar and event space. It’s even available for private hire for your special occasion!
