Brewery tap & bottle shop
Had a nice time here with a couple of beers. Chatted with the owner for a while and she is so knowledgeable and helpful when we were selecting brews to take home. Recommend taking a trip here, the beers are worth it!
Fantastic day an Elly was really knowledgeable and friendly. A great tour with some good samples is worth a visit an if you like real ale then plan a visit here. All their beers are top notch. Well be visiting again ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Visited on Saturday morning and got 24 bottles. A wide range of ales and IPA, small batch ales and staples/favourites. Knowledgeable woman in the shop offered a friendly welcome and talked me through the range with enthusiasm but no hard sell. I left happy with the beers purchased and would happily recommend a visit. Good prices as well for a quality product.
The Durham Brewery offers some of the finest and most exceptional beers you will find. I am a big fan of their strong ales/stouts (note you should respect their strength and drink them as you would good wine). The stand out high end products are their barrel aged beers/stouts. I've just received 6 bottles of Bede's Moscatel Barrel Aged Tripel (ABV 9.7%), and 3x 2 bottles of Imperious Stout: 2 aged in Bourbon Barrels (ABV 10.5%) , 2 in Rum Barrels (ABV 12.8%) and 2 in Whisky Barrels (ABV 11.5%). I also retained 2 bottles of their previous Imperious Oak Aged Stout (ABV 11.8%) from a previous order and one Temptation Imperial Russian Stout (ABV 10%), so look forward to hosting a small scale stout tasting once COVID tiers permit. I've also still got 4 bottles of Redemption (ABV 12%) with a best before 2028 date. These I originally bought as part of a case nearly 2 years ago, and so far they have remained incredibly stable retaining the original toffee and vanilla flavours with the whisky cask finish.
Great microbrewery producing some very tasty beers. Good tuored tasting sessions on Saturdays and don't miss out on the August anniversary events!
