Hook Norton Brewery Celebrates Double Victory at 2025 British Bottlers Institute Awards

Hook Norton Brewery is proud to announce that it has been named a 2025 Competition Winner at the prestigious British Bottlers Institute Awards, taking home Diploma honors for it’s Twelve Days Original Porter and Ironstone, Premium English Lager.

This year's competition saw an impressive range of high-quality beverages entered across all categories. After careful tasting and rigorous evaluation, the panel of expert judges recognized Hook Norton’s commitment to tradition, quality, and innovation.

“We’re absolutely delighted to see both Twelve Days and Ironstone recognized,” said James Clarke, Managing Director at Hook Norton Brewery. “These awards are a true testament to the passion and craftsmanship that our brew team put into everything we produce.”

Twelve Days Original Porter, known for its rich malt character and smooth finish, has long been a seasonal favourite. A strong dark porter with a malty palate and nutty overtones, that give way to a lyrical sweetness. 

Ironstone Lager, named after the quarried stone their iconic tower brewery is built from, is a crisp, light thirst quenching English lager, only ever brewed onsite and conditioned for a full 44 days to ensure the best quality and flavour.

Hook Nortons award winners are available in the brewery shop, online at www.hooky.co.uk and discerning shops, pubs and restaurants.
