Hopulist Issue Eight

“It would be completing our most recent expansion project -
all the team pulled together under really stressful conditions,
continuing to produce really good beers among utter chaos of
builders, electricians, welders all on site together. I’m proud that
Buxton Brewery is about the Peak District and the surrounding
environment, and the people that make the beer, and who serve
and present it in our bars. I feel proud to have these guys in my
organisation, and without them I’d be in the garage still…”
QUICK FIRE Q&A
What is the future vision for both Buxton Brewery and its beers?
To expand our bars as well as the good word of Buxton to many more folk.
What is the thing that excites you most about the future of craft?
That’s a tough question as there are so many things that are exciting
about the future of craft! It’s great to see all the creativity, inclusivity and
ingenuity and we hope this continues.
What is the thing that worries you most about the future of craft?
Competition rather than partnership. Corporation rather than craft.
Are there any exciting plans on the horizon you can tell us about?
Probably – we’ll let you know when we know!
