Dartmoor Brewery - DARTMOOR BREWERY

Station Road, Princetown, Devon PL20 6QX. Tel 01822 890789.


Established in 1994, formerly named Princetown Brewery, it is the highest brewery in England at 1,465 feet above sea level. In 2005 the brewery moved to a new purpose built building. In 2012 the capacity was increased to 360 barrels per week by the addition of another 60-barrel fermenter with a further increase in 2013. In 2017 a further extension was built which now gives a brewing capacity of 540 barrels. All five live beers, including the eponymous Dartmoor Jail Ale, are brewed using English malt, and are available in bottles, although they are not bottle conditioned.
