ORGANIC BREWERY
Introduction Liverpool Organic Brewery Limited was established in September 2008. Our objective was a simple one; we wanted to produce great tasting beers using the best ingredients. This philosophy gave birth to our maxim "Quality over Compromise" After a year of intensive research and development, we started trading in September 2009. Since then a substantial local customer base has been established. During 2011 and 2012 our growth has continued and we now regularly supply customers in London, Brighton, Leeds, York & Manchester to name just a few. Our growth and success is based on our passion to brew great beer. Over the years our product range has continued to expand thanks to our dedicated brew team and some excellent brew recipes. We’re very proud of our cask and bottle range and we hope to be brewing many more! Our full product range is listed overleaf. Within our product range are the ‘Liverpool Heroes’. The Heroes of Liverpool Ales are inspired by historical figures from Liverpool. We wanted to produce a range of beers that celebrates Liverpool’s important and historic past. The range began with William Roscoe, a best bitter, and now includes Josephine Butler “Elderflower Ale”, Joseph Williamson “Tunnale”, Kitty Wilkinson, a Chocolate and Vanilla Stout and Empire Ale to honour Captain Noel Chavasse.

Regular Capt. Noel G Chavasse VC & BAR 1884-1917 The battlefield of Mametz was to see acts of heroism by Captain Chavasse, the only man to be awarded the Victoria Cross twice during the First World War. In 1916, Chavasse was hit by shell splinters while rescuing men in no-man's land. He got as close as 25 yards from the German line, where he found three men and continued throughout the night under a constant rain of sniper bullets and bombing. He performed similar heroics in the offensive at Passchendaele to gain a second VC and become the most highly decorated British serviceman in the war. He died of his wounds on the 4th of August 1917.
