From summer 2025 our client begins an exciting new chapter. They're a new food-led pub venture blending craft brewing with traditional pub warmth, offering a curated selection of small-batch beers, refined pub food and a focus on community-driven hospitality. The brewery was born from a love of bold, characterful beers, brewed with respect for tradition but never bound by it. They combine time-honoured methods with modern techniques to create beers that are inventive and expressive but still true to their style. They want the food offering to reflect their approach to brewing - true to the craft but with fresh, modern ideas. Rooted in the Tamar valley, they're connecting directly with local small-scale growers, organic farmers, foragers and producers to create a food experience which showcases the best they have to offer.
