Cronx Brewery wins award

The Cronx Brewery took home the GOLD in the Bottle/Can British Dark Beer (4.5% – 6.4%) Category at the SIBA South East Independent Beer Awards, which took place at Tonbridge Juddians Rugby Football Club in Tonbridge last week.

“Judges had a tough job separating the pack as the standard was extremely high once again. The winners from the SIBA competition are officially the best independent craft beers in the UK, something brewers should be extremely proud of,” said Ian Fozard, SIBA Chairman.

The SIBA South East Regional Independent Beer Awards judged a huge range of beers across a number of styles in separate cask, keg and bottle & can competitions. As the awards are judged mostly by brewers, industry experts and beer journalists the SIBA Independent Beer Awards are seen as the prestigious ‘Brewers’ choice Awards’ by the industry.

Mark Russell, Director at The Cronx Brewery said:

“This is a fantastic award for all the hard work that goes into making the beer in the brewery, to know that expert judges have rated our beer as the best in category in the region is a great achievement. We are now looking forward to representing Croydon on the National stage, as we have qualified for the national awards to be staged in Liverpool next March.”

The Cronx Brewery started in 2012, and now brews a core range of 5 beers, including a bitter, a blonde, a pale and an IPA. They also have a craft beer bar at Boxpark, by East Croydon station.
