A thread for keeping up with Leics beer & cider producers, a relation of the Nice Pubs thread.

 

The smaller/start up breweries seem to be doing well. Everard's have finally pushed the boat out a touch after they moved.

 

Everards - Enderby

Round Corner - Melton

Braybrooke - Harborough

Charnwood - Loughborough 

Tollgate Brewery - Ashby

 

Are fairly productive, there's a more exhaustive list here:

Round Corner have collaborated with Braybrooke to produce a Kolsch.

 

I hope one of the newer lot take up a pub in Leicester, the Brewdog unit would be great for it.

Would be great if Braybrooke opened somewhere in the city but I can’t see it.

Mill Hill also brews quite a few now I believe

Langton Brewery have been going a long time now and seem to have got a lot bigger in recent years. Always rate their stuff but only ever seem to see it in South Leics/North Northants pubs.

I saw an Everardes lorry opposite work the other week at one of my local pubs. Never seen it outside Leicester before?

The Chesterfield Arms is an Everards

It's Piefest at the Melton livestock market this weekend, that's also where Round Corner are based and they'll be open early for ticket holders I believe. Pies and beer... the food of champions.

Shame Framework and the West End brewery have called it a day relatively recently.

 

I don't know much about the reasons why but I got the impression is was all very hard work 

WEB jacked it in due to energy costs and I get the impression Framework were doing it part time or didn't have the business acumen

Grainstore is a fine East Leicestershire brewery in Oakham. Really like their beer 'East Leicestershire Osprey'.

 

Looks like they also do an 'East Leicestershire Bitter' and a variety called 'East Leicestershire Panther'.

Does Ind Coope  still  brew in Leicestershire? Just a couple of small places in Leeds brew it now,I think, and once they go it will be gone for ever, I suspect.

Didn’t realise Framework had binned it off. Think the guy that owns that owns TTL does he not?

Yes. When I looked at Companies House that was the cases

Anyone know rough time when the new micro brewery is opening in barrow upon soar where the old H2O is? Living in barrow myself I’m quite keen to know - could be a great little spot

My brother's been to the thing they put on in the summer (Langtonfest?) and it looks a good do.

 

They keep a decent pint of both you mentioned at the Swans in Harborough, plus they're always the cheapest beers in there!

It is. They've got a few micro pubs in Mountsorrel & Shepshed too.

 

I believe the barrow one is due to open between September to November this year.

I was looking at potential property to rent to open a micro pub in barrow and then covid came 😔

Soar brewing are new this year and have their stuff on in the Swan Inn at Mountsorrel.

 

Best pub in Leics, imo.
