More award wins!

It’s been a pretty good week here at the brewery – we’re pleased to announce that our beers have achieved significant recognition at both the Great Taste Awards 2024 and the World Beer Awards 2024.

Our Seahorse Ale was awarded a 2-star rating at the Great Taste Awards 2024, while our Devon Amber received a 1-star rating. Additionally, both our Island Street Porter and Pilsner were honoured with Silver medals for taste at the World Beer Awards.

~ Great Taste Awards
Run by the Guild of Fine Food, Great Taste is the world’s largest and most trusted food and drink accreditation scheme. Products are blind taste-tested by a panel of experts often including the demanding palettes of chefs, critics, buyers and journalists, to gain honest and impartial feedback, and are given a seal of approval with a 1, 2 or 3 star accolade.

A 1-star award is given to a product that is simply delicious. 2-stars represent an outstanding product.

Judging notes for Seahorse, which received 2-stars: This is a very good bitter with a perfect marriage of hops and malt. The sweet caramel note is welcome and not cloying, making it thoroughly quaffable.

Judging notes for Devon Amber, which received 1-star: It’s crisp and refreshing, and leaves you with a moreish malty and spicy impression on the palate. A really tasty, well-made bitter.

~ World Beer Awards
The World Beer Awards (part of World Drinks Awards) are the global awards selecting the very best internationally recognised beer styles. With a global judging panel, each expertly chosen for their proficiency in the specific category, taste and quality are the sole criteria for awards – to receive 2 silver awards on the global stage is an incredible achievement.

We’re incredibly proud of our amazing brewing team, headed up by Sam Beaman for consistently producing award-winning products – these awards are a testament to their skill, passion, and commitment to excellence in brewing.

Thank you for all your support – we look forward to continuing our journey of producing the very best tasting beers crafted in sunny Devon!
