The Colchester Brewery

Update: 18th July 2012

Our range of brews is now increasingly available in the area and we are supplying beer festivals whenever we can! See the 'Pubs Supplied' page for the latest.

Here is a picture of the brewery team, L to R:
Top: Danny Knox (Tom's dad, chief cask washer), Tom Knox, Dom Skeet (trainee brewer) and Dean Elmer (delivery driver)
Middle: Carol Hill (sales), Roger, Tania Ellis (accounts)
Bottom: Gilly and Diesel, the dogs

Update: 13th March 2012

All the brewery infrastructure is now in place and brewing has commenced, with Colchester No 1 now available in selected pubs. Please tell your friends! Not only that but we have supplied our first beer festival and sold out jolly quick - see home page.

Colchester Brewery is financed by friends and family and those connections are part of our ethos. Here you can see the majority of our investors enjoying a beer at our launch party.
 
 

You can see a bit of the story of how we got to this stage in our old progress page.

Colchester Brewery Ltd is not to be confused with the old Colchester Brewing Company - you can find out more about the history of that old bottling company here.
