A Day in the Life at Lord Chambray brewery: Production Day

Ever wondered what goes into crafting your favourite Lord Chambray beer? A production day at the brewery is a mix of precision, passion, and a whole lot of fun (plus, the smell of fresh hops isn't bad either). Let’s take a trip through a typical day when we brew up those tasty beers you love! The Day Before: Prep Time! Even before the brewing starts, we’re already setting the stage. Hot and cold water are prepped, and the malted barley and grains—basically the backbone of our beer—are taken from storage and milled. It's like gathering all the ingredients for a big, delicious recipe, making sure everything is ready for the next morning. Early Morning: Powering Up and Setting the Mood Brewing days start early. First thing? Powering up the equipment: compressors, steam generators, water pumps—all systems go! We heat the water and get it perfectly balanced with minerals, giving our beers that unmistakable Lord Chambray edge. Mashing: The Heart of the Brew Next, it’s mash time! This...
