NOTE: PAYMENT BY CARD ONLY! CASH NOT ACCEPTED.

A community-owned, five brewer's barrel establishment which is housed in part of an industrial unit and commenced brewing in 2016.

All aspects of the brewery are primarily volunteer-operated, and new members are more than welcome - life membership costs £10.

The Tap bar usually offers up to four real ales: a bitter, two pales, and a dark, which are brewed on site. Wines, spirits, and soft drinks are also available. The Tap bar is located in the main brewery building, with seating available in an adjoining heated marquee where events are also held. These are often live music events, with most being fundraising evenings for different charities and are held on Fridays and Saturdays when the opening hours are extended. Please check the website and social media for details.

Large groups are welcome but are advised to give notice in advance by emailing bar@dronevalleybrewery.com

All the brewery products, cask, bottles, and beer in box are available to purchase via https://dronevalleybrewery.com/shop

NOTE: Sunday opening is only on the first Sunday of the month, when all are welcome to an open mic session.

Cask ale is £2.50 a pint on Mondays only.

Later closing on Friday and Saturday evenings when special events are on (please check the website and social media for details).

All the profits generated by this unique community brewery trust are used to help good causes.
