It sells 'historically-accurate' beers
Tucked away in a small Nottinghamshire village stands a brewery that opens just a handful of times every year - but its open days are always welcomed by huge queues. Inside Brook House in Collingham, near Newark, Cat Asylum has built up a reputation for itself by brewing 'historically accurate' beer.
"We had a few ideas, we thought about a bakery but the brewery seemed to be the most sensible one and I did home brew. It's a lovely solution to what to do with an old building."As the site is so full of history, Henry was also inspired to make a range of historically-accurate beers.
When asked about how he named the business, Henry replied: "It's because I liked asylum as a name for a brewery because of the lost beers and the recipes for beer that time had forgotten. I did have cats, so I just put cat on it and it worked." "It's nice and it's for the village and the little villages around. We are a venue as well, so when we are open 24 times a year some of those are ticketed events."
Chris explained that they have created a range of fruity beers as well, and at one time they had people in the village "bringing in pieces of rhubarb for us" to make into beer. Describing the process, he added: "It's a lot of blokes standing around and talking which is great and people from the village pop in and have a look."
