The pioneer of British premium lager, Freedom Brewery, has announced a new contract brewing service enabling growing producers to meet any increase in demand through a trusted resource.
Having recently invested more than £2 million into its production facilities, Freedom Brewery is offering its industry expertise to other brewers to brew, bottle, can and keg beers in multiple volumes, utilising state-of-the-art infrastructure.
The multi-award-winning brewer, which has been operating for nearly 30 years, has installed a brand-new CFT canning line. The machine can operate at a rate of 15,000 cans per hour, with printing or labelling into trays or multi-packs and then palletised all part of the offering.
A market-leading keg washing and filling machine can also support with filling 30L and 50L kegs, for brewers specifically needing an on-trade support function.
As an independent business, Freedom Brewery’s agility means it can quickly and expertly create all manner of beer styles, from crisp, refreshing lagers to juicy IPA’s, at minimum 5,000 litre brews. The business is also offering an option to combine experiences and develop new recipes, if that’s where the interested parties are seeking support.
And with sustainable production practices now an intrinsic part of most brewing businesses, Freedom Brewery also provides strong credentials on this front. As well as using Kieselguhr filtration to ensure beers are free from animal products and Vegan Society Certified, it uses natural spring water from a bore hole on site, thermal fluid heating to reduce energy consumption by 30%, and reed bed filtration to naturally clean wastewater, to name a few.
Matthew Willson, Managing Director at Freedom Brewery, said: “Contract brewing has been a staple of this industry for a long-time and we felt this was an area in which we could provide strong value to the market.
“Investment in new equipment, infrastructure, and workforce to grow your business can be costly, time-consuming and a real barrier to growth and what’s where we’re in a fortunate position to support.
“We’re able to take care of every aspect of your brew, from raw ingredients to the finished product, and the new canning line enables an incredibly efficient method to get from production to packaging so products can be put into market faster to help your bottom line.”
Freedom Brewery was founded in 1995 and is renowned for proper premium beer, brewed properly. The brewery utilises long, cold fermentation over 14 days, and long, slow maturation over a minimum of four weeks, to produce beer that is full bodied and naturally carbonated, while also refreshingly crisp and drinkable.
