The Chew Valley Brewery is a microbrewery based in Pensford, Somerset, England.
The brewery was opened in 2014 by Dom Lowe and Matt Stalker, after training at Masters Brewery in Wellington.[1][2] The company logo uses an illustration of the Pensford Viaduct.
First sales of their Pagan bitter were at the Stoke Inn in Chew Stoke,[3] and are now available at several pubs in the Chew Valley including The Stoke Inn Chew Stoke, Druids Arms Stanton Drew, Rising Sun and George & Dragon in Pensford and The Old Bank in Keynsham.
Currently two beers are brewed:
- Pagan (3.9% abv) brewed with Maris Otter barley and hopped with Fuggles and Golding hops. The pump clips show a tree on Pagan's Hill, Chew Stoke close to the site of the Pagans Hill Roman Temple.
- Druid (4.4% abv). The pump clips depict the Stanton Drew stone circles.[4]
