Knops Beer Company

Knops’ modus operandi is modern interpretations of traditional beer styles. This is reflected in their labels as well as their ales, which draw on vintage travel poster designs ‘to reflect a sense of discovery and exploration’. The beer names, also, are traditional or historic: deep golden, easy-to-drink California Common, four-malt Musselburgh Broke, hoppy India Pale Ale and strong, very dark Black Cork. In April 2013, Robert Knops' brand new brewery and bottling plant opened within the walled garden of the Archerfield Estate, with a restaurant and farm shop adjoining. He now brews for the estate under the Archerfield Fine Ales label, as well as continuing his own range, which expanded with the addition of Knops Premier Bru.
