History

Started brewing in July 2005 located at Unit 10 Howard Town Mill, Mill Street, Glossop initially under the name Howard Town Brewery. The 8BBL plant was supplied by PBC Brewery Installations Ltd. Brewing was suspended due to a serious fire at the premises at the beginning of April 2006 and for a short period brews were commissioned from other breweries such as Hebridean. Brewing re-commenced at their current location on 20th June 2006 and to finish a difficult year, they were voted overall winner at the SIBA National Beer Championships in 2007. The brand name Distant Hills was initially used for "craft" beers but became the main name in May 2022. Brewing ceased in Spring 2023.
