About The Brewery

The Adkin Brewery was originally founded as a hobby in early 2000.  It is a true example of a small cottage brewery, and is run by the sole proprietor, Mr Shaun Cunningham, from the garage attached to his house on a housing estate in Wantage, Oxfordshire.  All of Shaun's beers are produced using only natural ingredients, most of which are supplied by Dave and Helen Maggs of the West Berkshire Brewery www.wbbrew.co.uk and Ken Thomas of Arkwright's Homebrew in Highworth, near Swindon, Wiltshire www.arkwrightshomebrew.com.

At the moment, Shaun still has a full-time job.  He therefore brews to order only, and does not normally supply pubs , but restricts himself to brewing for CAMRA beer festivals and friends and work-colleagues only.  If you do have an interest in purchasing beers from the Adkin Brewery, please contact Shaun by emailing him. info@adkinbrewery.co.uk

Despite the restrictions placed upon Shaun in terms of both time and space, you can see from the photographs just how much can be achieved in a small, basic garage.  As for the quality of the products, well, that speaks for itself!  Shaun now regularly supplies beers to various beer festivals .  See the News Page for further details, and always feel free to contact us at info@adkinbrewery.co.uk  if you would like some more information.
