The Durham Brewery

Established in 1994, the Durham Brewery produces a wide range of cask and bottle-conditioned ales. The brewery has a ten barrel plant but with a 20 barrel Mash Tun for the stronger ales, four 10-barrel fermenters and three 10-barrel conditioning tanks for bottled beer with a warm room for bottle conditioning. The Brewery is planning an expansion into a new retail unit, including a new shop.

As well as their cask range, beers are available in bottles and 5 litre mini-casks and sold throughout the North East. For a list of outlets, or to buy directly online, visit the website at www.durham-brewery.co.uk. There is a 10% discount available for CAMRA members.
