Conceived as an idea in 2002, the Otley Brewing
Company became a reality in the summer of 2005. ‘O1’, the
first brew, was launched on 1st August 2005. A ten barrel plant based
in Pontypridd, South Wales, originally produced a family of six
different ales that were distributed all over South, Mid & West
Wales. More ales have now been added to the portfolio, &
distribution often spreads further afield.
Hand crafted using the finest malted barley and
hops, the company aim to produce beers of a consistently high standard.
Packed with flavours and aromas they will appeal to real ale lovers all
over, whether male, female, young or old.
