Greater Manchester
Welcome to Tūn Brewing Company, where great beer meets creativity, craftsmanship, and purpose. Founded in Manchester by Richard Alston, Tūn Brewing Company is the result of years of passion, perseverance, and a desire to bring a new perspective to the UK’s drinking culture.
The name "Tūn" reflects two key inspirations. Tūn is an Old English word for settlement or community, a nod to the connections beer can foster. This word lives on in the suffix "-ton," found in the names of many British places, including our home in Chorlton, Manchester. Secondly, "Tun" is the name given to the brewing vessels, such as a mash tun or lauter tun, that are essential in the creation of beer. Together, these meanings represent our vision: to create beers that bring people together while honouring the craft of brewing.
