About Tuck’s Brewery

A Fresh Take on Tradition

At Tuck’s Brewery we combine the time-honoured art of classical brewing with carefully applied modern methods. Every beer is handmade from an all-malt mash in our uniquely built brewhouse, served fresh and full of character.

Where It All Began

Tuck’s was born out of friendship – and an unchecked love of quality beer. Over countless conversations (and cans), we realised something was missing. The joy of beer was being diluted by mass-produced, commoditised brews. Even the craft beer boom hadn’t quite captured the spark we were looking for.

With Father Simon’s background in science and years of kitchen-based homebrewing, we discovered what fresh beer really tasted like – lively, unfiltered, and brimming with flavour. That revelation sent us on a journey that soon outgrew kitchens and garages, leading to the birth of a true community brewery.

From Garages to Thoresby Park

Like many good ideas, Tuck’s began small. From a converted garage, we produced our first 80-litre batches – a set-up we still use today for demonstrations and experimenting with new recipes.

In 2022, opportunity knocked in the form of Lady Manvers’ historic garage at Thoresby Courtyard, Nottinghamshire. What began as a modest pilot kit quickly scaled into a bespoke brewery housed in a shipping container, more than ten times the size. It was both exciting and terrifying – but exactly the leap we needed.
