Last Monday we paid a visit to The Durham Brewery to purchase some of their beers (Unit 6a, Bowburn North Ind Est, Bowburn, Co. Durham, DH6 5PF).
It’s been quite a long time since we last went on a proper beer-run, and we thought buying direct from a local brewery would be a good way to support a business in our local area.
Inside the shop at The Durham Brewery there is a bar, and some tables and chairs, so a good place to taste a few ales.
Unfortunately I was driving, and it was also early in the morning, so neither of us sampled any beer on site, but we did come away with 13 bottles.
To date we have only tried one, the Temptation Imperial Russian Stout. This is because Mrs.R has been very unwell, and it would be a shame for her not to enjoy the beers. I’m sure once Mrs.R is back in full health, we will devour our beer haul at a decent rate.
The welcome we received at The Durham Brewery was very friendly, and the lady who served us was knowledgeable about all of the beers.
We will definitely have to revisit to restock in the future.
