Cotswolds Brewing Co. is a microbrewery in Cheltenham, England in the United Kingdom. Aside from beer, they also produce vodka and gin.[1]
Cotswolds Brewing Co. was founded in 2005 by Emma and Rick Keene.[2] The couple started the brewery to focus on lager versus ale beer. The first beer they released was a German-style lager called Cotswold Premium.[1] It has been named of the "10 of the Best Breweries in the Cotswolds" by The Cotswolds Gentleman.[3]
The brewery is located on a farm in the Bourton-on-the-Water area in The Cotswolds. They offer two hour tours during the summer, which includes a tasting of the beers they produce.[1] The brewery building is made of Cotswold stone.[2]
Cotswolds Brewing Co. produces gin, which is a favorite alcoholic drink of Emma Keene.[4] For legal reasons, they distill their gin at Thames Distillers Ltd. in London. The gin is made with hawthorn berries, verbena, and lime.[1]
