Firebrand Brewing Co has installed two new 7,500 litre fermentation vessels to boost brewing capacity, as demand for their alcoholic and non-alcoholic beers rockets.

The new tanks will increase Firebrand’s brewing capability by 30%. The company has also invested in a new delivery van to meet the continually expanding local delivery schedule.
“We started 2025 with the busiest January ever, and each month sales have continued to soar, outstripping previous years and leaving us working hard to deliver our maximum output, but still struggling to quench the thirst for our beer,” said Joe Thompson, co-owner and head brewer.
“We believe that this is an upward trend, so we decided to invest in two additional fermentation vessels. We are delighted that these have now been installed and we hope that the extra 15,000 litres will ensure we always have our customers’ favourite beers in stock.”
He added: “We have seen huge growth in our sales nationwide since we launched our first non-alcoholic beer, Shorebreak, and we desperately need to be able to produce more. We also need to increase the volume of Helles Beach, our much-loved Cornish Lager, particularly in the summer months.
“Our latest investments will give us the ability and flexibility that we need to continue to grow and to make sure our customers always have a cold pint of Firebrand beer to hand.”
