HANGING UP OUR HYDROMETERS

Old brewers never die or even fade away, they just hang up their hydrometers and retreat to the garage to drink home-brew. Such will be the fate of the GODSTONE BREWERS this spring.

We thank each and every one of you for your support and custom over the past years. We have so many memories and as such have opened a shared image and video gallery so that we remember the good times together. Take a look!

OUR STORY

It was waaaaay back in 2014 when two old Uni friends bumped into each other at their kids’ awards ceremony in County Hall.

“Do you still brew?” Steve asked, remembering the days when Anne could sink a pint in 6 seconds.

“I certainly do,” replied Anne, who had earlier that year in fact featured on The One Show for a chili and lime concoction.

And with that, they ditched their careers and founded The Godstone Brewers.

A lot has happened since that day.

They’ve developed more beer recipes than Head Of Labels; Will, can keep up with, attended what feels like close to 1000 beer festivals, braved the rain and cold in countless farmers markets, and even dressed up in full lederhosen at Flower Farm’s annual Oktoberryfest.

Oh and Anne recently downed a pint in 8 seconds - not bad for a 60ish year old...

The best part however, has been getting to know everyone along the way. Many thanks are in order for Patrick and friends at Flower Farm, who kindly welcomed punters to quirky venues such as the tearoom or 16th Century Shepherds Barn, every Friday, for #FreshBeerFriday (one of Steve’s better ideas).

FBF has settled in its Taproom attached to the brewery at the rear of Flower farm and will have its last huzzah on 28th February 2025.
