The Dorset Maverick Brewers! Cerne Abbas brewery boasts a huge amount of personality with tonnes of fun. The owners are entertaining and you can easily lose a few hours at their taproom. As they quote they are a 'modest brewery with Giant integrity. Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy!'.
Their beer is brewed using green sand-filtered water of the finest quality, Maris Otter barley which is organically grown in the Cerne Valley by Will Best at Manor Farm, and other top-quality ingredients. The Tiger Tom stout is especially good as an alternative to Guinness (some say it's better!) and the Dorset ale is exceptionally good as a light ale. We haven't yet had a chance to try their coconut rum based beer which has won a lot of awards. We are told it is pretty special.
Throughout the year, the brewery hosts a number of events. In particular, their festivals are renowned for being huge amounts of fun with lots of bands to entertain the crowd. Set within a huge barn. What's not to like?
They are currently planning their 2024 events schedule. So keep an eye on their facebook page and website for the latest announcements.

Cerne Abbas Brewery is 5.7 miles away, an 11 minute drive.
