First sold beer: May 2017
Founded by Steve Dass and Becky Kean, this operation in a modern industrial unit at Lea Bridge specialises in low alcohol beers. Everything is properly brewed and fermented from traditional ingredients but using reduced amounts of malt and controlling mashing temperatures and fermentation carefully to reduce the strength.
The brewery is equiped with a 16 hl brewhouse plus a pilot kit. A taproom is open for occasional events.
Head brewer Steve Hunt, formerly at 360 Degree in Uckfield, moved on in 2021, replaced by Chris Matthewman, ex-Brixton.
Beers are mainly bottled, with some kegs and cans. Core beers are no more than 0.5% ABV while specials made on the pilot kit occasionally creep up to 1.2%.
