Fields Brewery, then, the 6th or 7th brewery
in London. I had my first experience of
commercial brewing there before moving
on and honing my skills in a load of other
breweries and craft beer bars in London
before moving back to my home town of
Southampton and starting Unity.”
Southampton was an easy choice for Jimmy
and his wife – they both grew up there and
they have family dotted around the city.

of the|r parts,
but more than
