A Cornish brewery that makes a point of hand-crafting and testing at every stage, and packing orders with a bit of care. Shipping goes out Tuesdays and Thursdays on a tracked next-day service, which is worth knowing if you are timing an order around a weekend.
Padstow Brewing Company is an independent micro-brewery on Cornwall's rugged North Coast, run without computers or accountants getting in the way. They cover a lot of ground: Padstow Pocket Rocket, a juicy American session pale; crisp Padstow Pilsner; malty amber Padstow Pride; the stronger Padstow IPA; wheat beer Lobster Tale, lovely with seafood; rich, smoky stout The Smoke; light golden Padstow Pale Ale; and copper-coloured Padstow Windjammer with dried fruit aromas. Padstow May Day, an extra pale, citrusy Summer Ale, joins them in warmer months.
