When we started out we were tiny. Garage Project wasn't even micro brewing… it was a truly nano brewery.

After nine years of working in breweries with equipment 100 times bigger it was quite a change to downsize to a fifty litre brew kit. But what we lacked in size we more than made up for in agility and the ability to experiment.

When you’re brewing on such a small scale you can afford to take risks. That suited us. We wanted to try something new.

Three years have passed and we’ve grown, but that same ethos still shapes how we do things at the Garage. Whether we’re brewing 50 litres or 2000, we’re still here to take some risks, to have a bit of fun and to try something new.
