About Me

I like brewing beer at home and with anyone else who will have me.  I’m currently enjoying my job, but see my future in the brewing industry.

I have a growing interest in beer, as a brewer and a beer blogger.  I brew, drink, think, write or dream about beer 24/7.  Sometimes all at the same time.

I’m a member of The Leeds Homebrew group and the Northern Craft Brewers (a regional group directly connected to the Craft Brewing Association).  I had a go at brewing commercially with Northern Monk Brew Co.  You can contact me by email: BroadfordBrewery (at) gmail (dot) com or on Twitter: @Broadfordbrewer.

Homebrewing successes:

Copper Dragon – 1st place – Belgian Pale Ale

Ilkley Brewery – Joint 1st place – American Brown Ale (shared honours with Matt Lovatt). Combined recipes created Joshua Jane.
