At our breweries we source finest quality roasted malted barley which is first ground in the mill. This also sifts out any other particles like stones. The resulting grist (ground grain) is then transferred to the mash tun where it is churned with hot water in order to initiate the saccharification process. This is when enzymes convert starch into sugar. The mash is then put through the lauter tun which separates liquid from spent grain which doesn\u2019t go to waste as it is used as cattle fodder.<\/p>\n

The liquid mixture called wort is then boiled in the wort kettle where the hops flowers are added for the characteristic bitter taste of beer. Next, the wort gets pumped into the whirlpool where the hops and protein residue separates from the liquid. The wort then gets transferred through heat plate exchangers and reaches the unitank in a cooled state and is ready for the initial fermentation process with the addition of yeast which may take one to two weeks. The brew is then filtered through to the bright beer tank for secondary fermentation before it is ready to be filled into bottles or cans. Lastly, before labelling and packaging, the beer goes through tunnel pasteurization extending its shelf-life.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s the brewing process in short, but it actually takes about two weeks! After this lengthy process, the beer is ready to be bottled (or canned) by supervised machinery. Then, to ensure that the beer retains its flavour our brewers have worked so hard to achieve, it is sterilised in a tunnel pasteuriser. Finally, the bottles are labelled and packaged for distribution.<\/p>\n
