Your Bristol Favourites: Breweries

By Bristol24/7  Monday Mar 12, 2018

This month, Bristol24/7 readers named their favourite breweries in Bristol. Here are some of the best:

Incredible brewing company
214-224 Broomhill Road, Brislington, BS4 5RG
“Making beers to reflect the varying seasons using traditional methods. I also look forward to trying their beers at the markets at the Tobacco Factory and Whiteladies Road.”
Lydia Fletcher

Wild Beer Co.
Units 6-8 Gaol Ferry Steps, Wapping Wharf, BS1 6WE
“Okay, so they don’t make their beers in Bristol but they are still very much of the city’s beer scene. They are also wonderfully experimental. Exhibit A: Iced Modus, a barrel-aged iced beer to celebrate their fifth birthday, blended, frozen and aged again in Pedro Ximenez barrels.”

Left Handed Giant
Unit 8 & 9, Wadehurst Industrial Park, St Philip’s Road, BS2 0JE
“The best beers in the city – I haven’t had a bad or even an average beer from them, all are excellent. In a bar I will always choose their beers over others and completely trust the name, which is rare.”
Rachel Cartwright

Moor Beer
Days Road, St Philip’s, BS2 0QS
“Gurt proper beer that tastes lush!”
Tim Brown

Lost and Grounded

Kev in Keynsham via email

Wiper and True

“So many good options, and I think I’ve only ever had one beer from them that I didn’t think was fabulous. We had Kaleidoscope for our wedding bar last year and it was perfect.”
