A picture of the brewing plant of Country Life Brewery

History

Brewery opened in Summer 1998 using the plant from Marisco Tavern Brewery. The brewery was originally located at the Pig On The Hill pub in Pursehill. During 2001 the brewery's capacity doubled in size. In late Summer 2002, the brewery moved to its current location. Some beers have been seen bearing the name Big Sheep Brewery as the brewery is advertised on their website.

Beers Brewed

We do not maintain a list of beers brewed by each brewery. There may be a list on the brewery's own website. A crowd-sourced beer list is also available on the Untappd page for this brewery. For historical information, we suggest you also visit the brewery page on the unfortunately no longer updated Beermad.

Since the 1974 local government reorganisation there has been much controversy over many county boundaries. The links we provide cover all areas possibilities: Ceremonial Counties which are the counties for which a Lord-Lieutenant has been appointed, Historic Counties (and their allied county boroughs) which represent the position before the 1974 re-organisation and Local Authority which represents the third tear District level.
