#146 | The story of Closet Brewing
Manage episode 433298814 series 3230061
Welcome to Closet Brewing, an Edinburgh-based nano-brewery focused on producing unique seasonal beers.
The founders Lucy and Lizzie Stevens, began as homebrewers (brewing quite literally out of their closet), before officially launching the brewery in 2022.
Since then, they’ve gone from strength to strength; brewing a diverse array of beers including a traditional doppelbock, a smoked pineapple gose, and a raspberry-chocolate torte stout, while also working with fantastic breweries across the country.
Lucy, the head brewer, is the driving creative force behind the brewery drawing inspiration from a host of unusual sources; including botanical gardens and baked goods.
She is always on the lookout for new techniques, developing and learning with every beer she designs. Some of the highlights of her brewing career so far include featuring in Dr Christina Wade’s book, “The Devil’s in the Draught Lines“, being selected as a mentee for the UK-wide Women in Beer mentorship program, and, most recently, lending her expertise as a taste judge for the Scottish Beer Awards.”
Here, Lucy tells us more about Closet Brewing, their journey to-date and how they built a brewery from nothing.
