About Signature Brew

Multi-award-winning beers inspired by and brewed with our musical heroes

At Signature Brew we make beer that makes music better, crafting an award-winning range of music inspired beers in a state-of-the-art brewery by day and legendary live music venue by night. Since forming back in 2011 during the craft beer revolution we have collaborated with more musicians than any other brewery on the planet.

Our commitment to brewing the highest quality, industry defining beers as well as to the community and environment means we're the only brewery to have won SIBA’s prestigious Brewery Of The Year Award twice (2018 & 2021).

In an age when time comes at a premium every moment counts, but none more than those spent enjoying great music in good company. Signature Brew exists to ensure these times are never compromised; from the moment the first beer hits to the moment the beat drops.

Our limited release band collab beers have seen us work with artists of all sizes, including household names such as the Libertines, Alt-J, Hot Chip, Mastodon, IDLES, Hak Baker, The Darkness, Enter Shikari, Dynamite MC, Noisy, Flogging Molly, Sports Team, Big Joanie and Mogwai to name just a few. 

Our core range features Roadie IPA, Studio Lager, Backstage IPA and Haze Machine which have all won two stars at the Great Taste Awards and are beloved by drinkers around the world.
