Gary and Bunny will be presented with 3 more 'beer of the festival' awards on August 30th for the Isle of Man, Kingston and Pigs Ear events.
Production capacity has recently tripled with a new 1000 litre brew system which is purpose designed for open fermented ales and, to optimise its capabilities, only whole cone hops are being used, creating even tastier brews. More traditional Ale styles are also being introduced - but with their own modern approach.
They have also started working with a new Malting company, using only floor
malted Organic malts which have a beautiful rich flavour.
In March they took on a permanent line for their nitro stout, Parlour, at the Crown Inn in Dial Post. All Day Succa beer was given an honourable mention at the CAMRA Spring
Equinox beer festival and Aleworks have also been selected as finalists for the Southeast in the UK Start-Up Awards.
Busy, but they are looking forward to a great year!
