We’re excited to report that due to the growth in popularity of GBC’s beers, we’ve recently welcomed two new members of the team: these ‘80x brewer’s barrel’ fermenting vessels. To put this into perspective for our customers: there are 288 pints in a brewer’s barrel, so these two vessels alone will enable us to brew an extra 46,080 pints at a time, increasing our brewing capacity by 40%! (Which I think you’ll agree is a whole lot of beer!!!)

We’ve also invested significantly in all the necessary cooling equipment and greater infrastructure that we need to ensure we are not just brewing a lot more beer, but we maintain the high-quality standards we set ourselves, too.

As we’ve grown the brewing arm of GBC over the last decade, we have been conscious of taking total control of quality. Last year, we invested a six-figure sum in a kegging machine which means not only is every beer brewed in Llantrisant, but it’s also kegged and casked here at the brewery – never leaving our sight or being placed in the hands of anyone else. This gives us complete confidence in our products and total ownership! It also means that if there is ever an issue with a GBC keg or a cask, we can resolve it quickly and effectively.

After all: the more you focus on quality, the better the beer keeps becoming!
