Sponsors

Cheddar Ales were established in 2006 and we have firmly positioned ourselves in the local market as brewers of quality, consistency and reliability. An ever present core range of 7 beers are brewed all year round along with various seasonal specials that come and go. A taproom is opening in early 2020 to complement our small pilot brew plant, allowing us to experiment with a wider range of beer styles than ever before and keep our beer thirsty customers topped up. Collaborations with home brewers also possible and actively encouraged. Come and join our fun.

Fierce & Noble

Bristol

Here at Fierce & Noble we are committed to brewing modern, seasonal beer in small batches. Yet, as a relatively young brewery in the heart of Bristol, we still respect years of brewing tradition that have gone before. The Taproom in St. Werburghs is a space that reflects the heritage and history of the craft beer industry - which steers our whole operation and everything we create. Here you can try our core range, which includes a Session IPA, American Pale Ale, West Coast IPA and a truly unique Black IPA. You can also get your hands on our latest brews, throw a private event and take a tour around our home.

Good Chemistry Brewing

Bristol

Good Chemistry Brewing was set up by Bob and Kelly to create good chemistry in its broadest sense – not just in the quality of the beer they produce, but using that to allow them to celebrate community and relationships across science, the arts, music, food, and social experiences, as well as beer & brewing. They have been up and running in their St Philips brewery since 2015, opened their first pub, The Good Measure, in Redland in December 2018, and open their brewery tap through the summer every year. In addition to serving Bristol drinkers on draught and in can, Good Chemistry are increasingly reaching further afield. All their beers are suitable for vegans.

Maria & Noel of New Bristol Brewery have their work cut out running the Brewery, the Tap Room and a Specialist Brewery School. They also host the UK National Homebrew Competition. Nobody knows when they manage to sleep.
