Harbour Brewing Company

What Harbour Brewing Company does

Harbour Brewing Company is an independent, founder-owned craft brewery established in 2012 in Bodmin, Cornwall, UK. The company produces and sells a focused portfolio of easy-drinking craft beers — Session IPA (Arctic Sky), Hazy IPA (Big Wednesday), Helles Lager (Singlefin), Meshi Rice Lager, Premium Pilsner, Lemon Zeppelin, and Bright Pale Ale (Beach Party, brewed with Cornish sea salt) — engineered as sessionable styles for outdoor social occasions such as beach days, BBQs, and festivals. Core beer ABVs range from 3.4% to 5.6%, with the lineup complemented by curated mixed packs (Harbour Hits, Pales Mix, Lagers Mix, Fridge Filler).

The business operates primarily through direct-to-consumer channels: an e-commerce website (harbourbrewing.com) shipping fresh product across the UK within 24 hours (Monday–Friday), and a physical brewery taproom and shop at Tretoil Farm, Lanivet, open Monday–Friday 9am–5pm. Revenue is generated from one-time purchases of beer (individual 330ml/440ml cans at £2.38–£3.40, 12-packs at roughly £25–£30, 24-packs at roughly £52–£57) and branded merchandise, including a co-branded YETI drinkware line. The company also drives top-of-funnel awareness through UK craft beer festival participation (Bristol Craft Beer Festival, Taste of London, City Beer Fest, London Craft Beer Festival, Rock Oyster) and an email newsletter. In 2026 the company executed a brand refresh ("The Harbour Evolution") to align its identity with its expanded national UK distribution presence, which now spans pubs, bars, and shops across the entire UK.
