THE BEER.


As an open-source brewery, we have nothing to hide. The recipes for each of our beers are listed below so you can try to make them yourselves, send us any feedback, and let us know how it went!

​

Our beers are numbered using a system based on the way in which universities and colleges number courses by their degree of complexity and expertise. Each beer's corresponding number reflects the sophistication of its flavour profile. Lower numbers indicate a more entry-level beer, while higher numbers are reserved for more experimental and bold-flavoured beers.
