OUR VISION
We believe craft beer is all about the relentless pursuit of perfection – and it’s this pursuit that drives us to make Uncommonly Good Beer.
Highly drinkable and exceptionally moreish, our beers are inspired by the character of our thriving agricultural home, the raw flavour of the East Midlands, and our international brewing experience.
We seek to brew the best example of every beer style we approach. Our high standards are paying off – the awards and accolades keep coming, year on year.
OUR HOME
Melton is recognised as the UK’s rural capital of food, renowned for locally-made Stilton cheese and pork pies. The market is the epicentre of a thriving agricultural economy, dating back 1000 years to the Domesday Book. It attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors every year – people who come to experience the very best of the region’s gastronomy, most notably during the many food and drink festivals, including our very own, now legendary, Rare Foods Festival, held in September every year.
As well as our brewery and taproom, the market is home to a growing number of exciting artisanal food and drink businesses – who are all doing their bit to contribute to this wonderful community that we’re lucky to be a part of. Many of these businesses produce ingredients that either make their way into our beers, or inspire us to think outside of the box.
OUR FOUNDERS
Over two decades in the industry, Round Corner head brewer and co-founder Colin Paige has championed the highest standards of brewing excellence. Whether that's brewing at big breweries, start ups or judging at World Beer Cups.
Colin has scored golds wherever he has gone, but never at the pace he's been accumulating them here at Round Corner including golds at all of the three biggies: the International Brewing Awards, the European Beer Challenge and the World Beer Awards.
Combie loves running and building the business and making friends and partners for RCB.
Colin and Combie are co-founders and co-conspirators.
OUR AWARD-WINNING BEER
We love our own beer. So it’s great to hear that other people love it just as much and think its worth awarding.
Since our conception in 2018, we’ve been awarded over 65 medals, from some of the most prestigious awards going, The European Beer Challenge, International Brewing Awards and The World Beer Awards, containing numerous gold, silver and bronze medals.
Our most notable award has been for our Steeplechase Pale Ale when it was awarded the Gold Medal and Trophy for best canned ale at the 2021 International Brewing Awards.
