The brewery

Eagles Crag Brewery operates from a fully equipped commercial brewing facility capable of producing a wide range of cask, bottled and keg beers.
The brewery has developed a strong reputation for producing innovative and consistently high-quality products, with an established core range complemented by seasonal and limited-edition brews.
Products are supplied directly to pubs, clubs, restaurants, retailers and wholesale distributors throughout the region.
The brewery benefits from established customer relationships and repeat trade built over many years.
The taproom

A major attraction of the business is the recently refurbished taproom.
Featuring a bespoke bar installation, multiple hand pulls and draught systems, the venue regularly hosts:
• Live music performances
• dj events
• Private functions
• Community gatherings
• Brewery launches
• Beer festivals
The taproom has become a popular local destination and provides an excellent platform for future expansion.
Importantly, the taproom currently operates only on the final Friday and Saturday of each month by owner choice.
This represents one of the most exciting growth opportunities available to a purchaser.
Brewery experience days

The business successfully operates brewery experience days where members of the public spend a day brewing alongside the brewery team.
These experiences provide an additional revenue stream whilst helping to strengthen customer loyalty and brand awareness.
A new owner could expand this area significantly through tourism packages, corporate hospitality and team-building events.
Financial performance

The business has demonstrated strong growth over recent years.
Average Turnover: £143,007
The reduction in profit during 2025 reflects increased staffing costs and owner remuneration rather than any decline in trading activity, with turnover continuing to increase year-on-year.
Detailed financial information is available to qualified purchasers following completion of a confidentiality agreement.

Exceptional growth potential

One of the most compelling aspects of Eagles Crag Brewery is the significant untapped potential available to a new owner.
Expand Taproom Trading
The taproom currently opens for only one weekend each month.
This equates to approximately 24 trading sessions annually.
Opening every weekend could increase available trading sessions to over 100 per year, creating substantial opportunities to increase revenue through bar sales, events and entertainment.
Introduce In-House Food Operations
Food provision is currently outsourced to visiting vendors.
A purchaser could introduce an in-house kitchen operation and retain the full profit margin from food sales whilst increasing customer spend and enhancing the overall visitor experience.
This alone could create a significant new revenue stream.
Increase Direct Consumer Sales
The business currently focuses heavily on business-to-business sales through pubs, clubs, restaurants and wholesalers.
There is substantial opportunity to increase direct-to-consumer sales through:
• Taproom retail sales
• Online ordering
• Local retail partnerships
• Brewery subscriptions
• Gift packs and merchandise
Direct consumer sales generally achieve significantly higher margins than wholesale distribution.

Corporate Events & Tourism
The brewery is ideally positioned to expand into:
• Corporate hospitality
• Team-building experiences
• Private celebrations
• Beer tasting evenings
• Brewery tours
• Tourism packages

Production Growth
The existing infrastructure offers scope for increased production volumes without significant additional capital expenditure.
Occupational costs

The premises benefit from exceptionally low operating costs.
Current Rent:
£400 per calendar month
£4,800 per annum
No VAT
Business Rates Exempt
This represents a considerable competitive advantage when compared to many hospitality and leisure businesses.
