Compared to some of their established US compatriots, Two Roads are a relatively new kid on the block. The brewery was founded in 2012 by four friends, the realisation of a dream to ‘take the road less travelled’, the company’s driving ambition ever since.
Brewmaster Phil Markowski cut his teeth home brewing, before a long career bagging awards and medals at other pioneering breweries. Who better to take the wheel, then, for their glorious beery road trip? The brewery have really hit the ground running, with an extensive lineup of beers praised far and wide as unique twists on classic styles, taking inspiration from their east coast home’s industrial heritage. Case in point: Lil Heaven, a session IPA packed with exotic hops and juicy, tropical flavours. The title? A nickname given to a space in the factory roof workers used to use for mid-shift naps. Whether it’s souring limited-edition beers in a requisitioned dairy truck parked in the brewery lot, or hosting food trucks and bands for Road Jam, a summer music festival, Two Roads lives and breaths the road less travelled.

Our Two Roads Brewing Range
Honeyspot Road
| Style: | Unfiltered IPA |
|---|---|
| ABV: | 6.0% |
The Two Roads version of this traditional beer style takes a road less traveled. It's unfiltered and uses wheat as the dominant malt backbone. The result is a slightly cloudy, pale IPA with a softer mouthfeel that accentuates the citrusy Pacific Northwest hop character.

Lil Heaven
| Style: | Session IPA |
|---|---|
| ABV: | 4.8% |
A session IPA in a can. Made with four exotic hops - Azacca, Calypso, Mosaic and Equinox. Taste is of tropical fruits, specifically passion fruit, grapefruit and apricots. Finishes with just enough toasted malt character to balance.

Two Roads Ol Factory Pils
| Style: | Pilsner |
|---|---|
| ABV: | 5.0% |
Traditional in concept with a Two Roads twist; dry hops. We use a combination of classic German as well as American hop and malt varieties in our Pils. We renovated a 100 year-old factory building and designed this Pils to have extra aroma so, pardon the pun! Crisp, refreshing and refined.

Two Roads Workers Comp
| Style: | Saison |
|---|---|
| ABV: | 4.8% |
A traditional farmhouse ale made with a very expressive yeast strain that contributes an array of tropical fruit, spice flavors and aromatics. Brewed with a variety of harvest grains including barley, wheat, oats and rye as was likely the case with farmhouse brewers of yore. The result is a complex, refreshing and distinctive example of this esoteric style. Intensely fruity (passion fruit, pineapple, mango, lychee), slightly spicy (clove, white pepper)
