Wookey Ale only launched in 2020, but they are already making their mark on the beer scene - at an international level.

It was founded by Samuel Mills who dreamt of creating a beer for the famous village of Wookey Hole. He decided that he couldn't do this alone so he asked a fellow ale connoisseur to join in partnership with him in making the dream come true. They both decided that they wanted a session ale, which is easy on the pallet and doesn't leave an after taste, and they came up with their first ale, 'Witch Way Home'. 

Since then they've also created Autumn Gail (a fruity, malty amber ale) and Arthur's Point (a classic bitter-style beer).

But it's Witch Way Home that has catapulted them into the spotlight after it won a Gold Medal at the European Beer Challenge.

"European Beer Challenge Medals are extremely valuable to us, as they recognise the absolute top tier of Beer producers in the World," said Samuel."Winning at European Beer Challenge is super competitive, and this Gold European Beer Challenge 2022 Medal is a huge asset to our brand! Beer is our passion, and we are appreciated by the people that know what they are talking about. European Beer judges are extremely demanding. This bodes well for our brand expansion and evolution. We are ambitious and excited!"

Wookey Ale is now stocked in more than 30 shops, delis, restaurants and tap rooms in Somerset, Bristol, London and Dorset.
