-The Brewery
Building a brewery in the current economic climate proved to be unfeasible. Unfortunately there are only a handful of breweries in the UK that are capable of brewing and packaging beers of the style and to the quality that Mitchell Krause Brewing insists upon.
From a technical point of view any brewing partner needs the right equipment to be able to properly condition Mitchell Krause beers at low temperatures for extended periods (‘lagering’).
This means cylindro-conical shaped vessels that are covered in cooling jackets. These vessels also need to be pressure-controlled in order to keep the natural CO2 (the bubbles) that is produced from fermentation in the beer rather than artificially injecting it just before it is packaged as is the case in bigger lager breweries.
There also aren’t that many brewers in the UK that have experience of brewing authentic, crafted lagers.
Possibly the most important criteria, however, is the brewing partner’s shared company values and an all-consuming passion for brewing a variety of different styles of beer excellently.
Andy Hepworth and his company, Hepworth & Co in Horsham, West Sussex are an established, award-winning brewer of ales and lagers of distinction. They are committed to using local ingredients and are accredited by the Soil Association for the production and packaging of organic beers.
