WELCOME TO INDIE BEER
Independent beer is handmade by real people who truly care about the quality and flavour of the beer they are producing.
Choose independent beer for a great tasting pint and much more choice of styles and flavours than you get with global mass-produced beers. Importantly, you’ll be supporting local business, protecting local pubs, and making a more sustainable choice too.
Support independent breweries by buying beers that carry the INDIE BEER mark on their pump clips, labels, or bottle caps and look for INDIE BEER posters and window stickers in pubs and brewery taprooms that are proud to serve it.

ABOUT INDIE BEER
Independent beer is handmade by real people who truly care about the quality and flavour of the beer they are producing. By choosing independent beer you're not only getting a great tasting pint, but supporting local business, protecting pubs, and making a more sustainable choice.
The INDIE BEER campaign aims to make the INDIE BEER mark the recognisable standard for high quality craft and cask beer, brewed across the UK, by truly independent breweries.
The campaign was launched by the Society of Independent Brewers and Associates with the support of other beer organisations including the Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA), the British Institute of Innkeepers (Bii), and Independent Family Brewers of Britain (IFBB). It has also gained the support of beer media outlets such as Pellicle Magazine. If you're interested in supporting the campaign click here.
