The idea

Every batch brewed 500 litres at a time, and tasted before it leaves the building.

Our story

Small enough to taste every batch.

Shelby's Brewery started with a simple idea: brew beer the way you'd want to drink it — honestly, carefully, and in small enough batches that nothing gets lost in a bigger operation's schedule.

Based in the Wye Valley, we sell straight from the brewery, through a handful of good local pubs, and from our own taproom when the tanks allow.

Who's brewing

Small team. One good dog.

It's a hands-on operation — every batch passes through the same few hands, and one very interested nose.

Head of Quality Control

Reports to no one. Supervises every brew day from the office, and is the reason the brewery has a name.

Small batch, big flavour.

Three beers, brewed a few hundred litres at a time — more on the way as the tanks free up.

Fetch

IPA

Big citrus and tropical fruit on the nose, with a good hit of pine in the background. It's bold and bitter up front, but finishes clean and dry.

ABV [4.5]%IBU [42]

Waggy Tale

Pale Ale

Light, zesty aroma with a touch of orange and fresh grass. Easy-drinking and balanced, with a soft bitterness that fades quickly and leaves you ready for the next sip.

ABV [5.0]%IBU [35]

Good Companion

Lager

Clean and light on the nose, with a gentle hint of biscuit. Crisp and refreshing to drink, finishing dry and quick — the kind of beer that disappears fast on a warm day.

ABV [4.0]%IBU [10]
