Magic Rock Brewing: Salty Kiss 4.1% - short dated

Alongside a distinctive core range we produce an ever changing line up of idiosyncratic beers with an innovative quality driven approach. Our ‘Same but Different’ beers are packed with intense yet approachable flavours which will challenge and inspire, but above all remain balanced and drinkable.

In line with a desire to reflect US beer culture and enhance the UK beer scene, local designer Rich Norgate was commissioned from day one to create a modern and contemporary look for our brand which would resonate with a new wave of beer drinkers bored by the traditional beer landscape.

Initial reaction to the beers exceeded expectations and a fantastic first six months culminated in the brewery being voted 2nd best new brewery in the world 2012 (and 5 times a top 100 world brewer since) on the independent ratings site RateBeer.com. To meet demand, capacity was increased twice in the first year with additional fermenting vessels added in October 2011 and January 2012.

In 2015 the brewery moved to a new facility in Birkby, Huddersfield less than 10 minutes’ walk from the town centre, featuring a 4,000 sqft Tap Room and automated canning facility. The move also facilitated an expansion of brewing operations with the installation of a 50hl brewing system and additional fermenters. In the intervening years production has tripled and currently stands at around 15,500hl pa (2.7million pints).
