Drink Dorking Brewery Beer Where It's Made

Our taproom is The Tap & Gun, on Aldhurst Farm in Capel. It was a cattle shed before we moved in, and now it is where we pour our beer fresh from the source, a few metres from where it is brewed. Come to collect an order, pick up cans or a mini keg to take away, or stay for a pint.

What People Say

Chris Reynolds

Very interesting tour of the brewery, plenty of beer to sample, staff were very knowledgeable, helpful and entertaining!

Paul Hurley

Had an amazing time on the brewery tour today! The staff were fantastic—so friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable. I learned so much about the beer-making process, from the ingredients to the brewing techniques. To top it all off, the beer tastings were excellent—each one had a unique flavour, I had to buy some to take home. Highly recommend this tour to anyone who loves beer or just wants a fun and informative experience. Cheers to the team!

Emily Hardesty

Came along for a tour for the Heritage Open Day and had a fantastic time - very generous hosts (David and Jim) making sure everyone had a glass topped up and incredibly knowledgeable. Thank you so much!

David Horn

Had an excellent experience here this weekend. Knowledgeable and interesting staff talked us through the history and process of brewing and provided us with a few liveners along the way. Excellent beer and a good morning out.
