Our Story

Established in 2023, The Old Firestation has been a labor of love, born from a passion for great beer and the desire to create a welcoming space for our community. We take immense pride in being a local, family-owned brewery that values quality, creativity, and sustainability in every aspect of our operation. Our commitment to these principles shines through in every sip of our beer and every bite from our pop-up kitchen.

OUR BEERS

Keg beers are filtered and force-carbonated, which makes them colder than cask ales and fizzy, and expands their lifespan.
They’re gas-driven too, which is why you’ll notice the beer flow steadily from a tap on the bar, rather than pulled through the line, as with cask ale.
Cask ale, or real ale, is beer that has gone through a secondary fermentation in the vessel from which it is dispensed.
The carbonation occurs naturally from the fermentation process.

SHOP OUR BOTTLED BEERS

All our bottled beers are brewed and bottled on site, and are produced in small batches to expertly control the quality of the beer.
