FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Tūn Brewing Company Launches with Debut of Modern English IPA and Innovative Membership Program
Chorlton, Manchester, November 2024 — Tūn Brewing Company Ltd., the latest addition to Manchester's vibrant craft beer scene, is excited to announce its official launch. Founded by Richard Alston, Tūn Brewing Company is committed to crafting high-quality beers while bringing people together through shared experiences and sustainability.
Brewing with a Purpose: Crafting Community and Connection
The name "Tūn" embodies the brewery’s ethos — it refers to a brewing vessel and also speaks to the Old English word for “community.”
Launch Lineup Begins with Archetype
Tūn Brewing Company’s debut beer, Archetype, is a Modern English IPA that celebrates the best of British hops with a fresh, balanced flavour profile.
The Future: Contract Brewing and Taproom Plans
While Tūn Brewing Company has ambitious plans to open its own brewery and taproom in Chorlton, it is currently contract brewing, also known as "shadow brewing." This approach allows the brewery to overcome the significant barriers to entry in the brewing industry, where high equipment costs can be prohibitive for new players.
“Contract brewing is a model used by other great Manchester breweries like Burton Road Brewery, Shindigger, and Balance Brewing,” explains Alston. “I develop the recipes on my pilot kit, and then we partner with an excellent brewery to scale up production. We trust our partner to bring our recipes to life while maintaining the quality we strive for.”
With plans to establish its own brewery and taproom in the next 12-18 months, Tūn Brewing Company is ready to make its mark on the UK craft beer industry.
