Brewed and poured on Halden Street

Small-batch beer, poured where it is brewed

Four core beers and a changing list of specials, straight from the tanks behind the bar. Bottles and cans to take home from the shop by the door.

Since 2014 (sample)

A brewhouse with a bar at the front

Halden Street Brewery (sample) brews in an old tram depot: the tanks are at the back, the taproom is at the front and you can see one from the other. Everything on the bar was brewed within twenty metres of your glass.

We make four beers all year and one or two specials a month, and we sell them nowhere else but here and in a handful of local bars.

Take some home

The bottle shop by the taproom door sells every beer we make, in cans, bottles and growler fills, plus gifts and tours. Ask us to put anything aside and collect it on your way home.

Example prices. Over 21 only; we ask for ID at the counter.

Fresh, local, unhurried

A ten-barrel brewhouse, four fermenters and two brewers. Small batches mean the beer on the bar is never more than a few weeks old.

Malt from the valley

Pale and crystal malts from a maltings forty miles away (sample).

Whole-cone hops

Added by hand in the kettle and again in the tank.

Slow fermentation

Lagers rest six weeks in the cold before they reach the bar.

Brewed on site

No contract brewing: every beer is made here, by us.

Two friends, one tram depot

Mara and Tom (sample) started brewing in a garage, sold their first keg to the bar across the road and took the lease on the old depot a year later. The tram rails still run under the taproom floor.

Good beer needs a good room to drink it in.

We still brew every batch ourselves and still pour it at the bar on Saturdays. Come and say hello.
