We have four permanent beers – Best, Topsail, Gold and Devon Dumpling. Each beer is different with its own unique flavour and aroma. Our distinctive range of beers mean that we have something for everyone – covering the whole spectrum of beer styles and strengths.
We also brew a number of seasonal ales throughout the year, so keep a look out for them in the pubs. Better still, why not visit the brewery for a tasting session!
