Here at Braybrooke Beer Co, our aim is simple: to make really good lager. That’s exactly what we’re doing, brewing proper lager in the heart of the English countryside, near Market Harborough. We are craft lager specialists, brewing our core beers – Keller, Helles and Session – all year round plus a variety of seasonal specials and collabs with other top breweries.
We use only the finest ingredients from Germany, the home of lager. Our malt is from Franconia in Germany, which we mill on site just before every brew for utmost freshness. We import our classic German hop varieties directly from a renowned hop farm in Tettnang. And our house lager yeast is grown for us in Bavaria and shipped overnight for maximum quality.
The final, and some say, most important ingredient is our local Midlands water. We have our own reverse osmosis water treatment plant to soften the water and ensure a greater smoothness in the final product. Our semi-automated, three vessel 10hL ZIP brewhouse enables us to turn these great ingredients into our lagers using traditional German brewing techniques.
We don’t use any filtering or fining agents except for time and patience! This also means our beer is vegan friendly.To have total control over the entire process, we package every bottle and keg ourselves, and we hold the finished product in our 4ºC cold store to keep the beer as fresh as possible.
