By all accounts Exmoor Ales will now be brewed at Hogsback Brewery in Tongham. The current brewery at Wiviliscombe will be retained as a local distribution centre.

Somerset’s iconic brewery closes but it’s not last orders just yet

Exmoor Ales is closing its Somerset brewery—but a new brewing partnership with Hogs Back Brewery will keep its iconic beers alive and jobs protected

Exmoor Ales has announced the closure of its Somerset brewery after battling the impact of Covid-19, inflation and rising taxes, but insists a new collaboration will help preserve the brand and protect jobs.

Managing director Jonathan Price said the company had faced “challenging times” in recent years, which forced it to restructure in order to survive. After exploring several options, Exmoor Ales decided to collaborate with Hogs Back Brewery, a family-owned independent brewery based in Surrey.

Jonathan said: "It is shocking to have to close a brewery, but the environment for small brewers has been one of decline since Covid. I don’t know how many small breweries have closed down, but likely in the hundreds."
