Handsome Brewery

Highlight • Pub

Limited opening hours for this great craft brewery but always worth it if you time it right. The Tap bar opens at 5pm on a Friday and 3pm on a Saturday and Sunday. Beer can be bought anytime after 11am if someone is at the brewery.

Really welcoming place for cyclists and the brewery is building a huge car park for 2019 so you can park here, do a great ride and end with one of the most handsome beers you’ll enjoy anywhere.
