Bluntrock was founded in Rock, Cornwall in 2021 by 24 year old George Collins and 21 year old Hugo Roads. The pair joined forces to bring their newly discovered obsession of quality-focused, US-style pale ales and IPAs to their local area. These beers were making waves in the national craft beer industry, but they couldn't find access to them in their little pocket of North Cornwall.

In late 2020 the pair sparked their idea at a clifftop bbq in North Cornwall, and not before long, a tiny brewery, taproom and beer garden had been built out of recycled yellow shipping containers! A beautiful, vibrant place for them to share their passion for fresh, diverse styles of beer. Support from local enthusiasts grew the demand for Bluntrock beers, and out flowed countless pale ales, IPAs and other exciting, modern styles of beer. Soon after setting up, the 150L brew kit reached full capacity, and since then the team have been doing their best to keep up with the demand from their Taproom alone. After two and a half years of non-stop brewing and exploring countless recipes, they are now opening the next chapter in the Bluntrock journey.

Over the last year, the team have been busy building a new, state-of-the-art brewery, just 600 metres from the original Bluntrock container brewery in Rock, Cornwall. Here, not only will the team aim be to produce much more beer, but they'll also aim to achieve new heights of innovation, quality and sustainability in their brewing techniques, along with doing their best to operate in the most inclusive and honest way possible. News on our sustainability journey will be released soon!

The team commissioned the new brewery on the 14th of May, so you can expect to see a diverse range of pale ales, lagers, cask beers and monthly specials start to flow out from our new site from mid June. After the first release, find the freshest Bluntrock beers at our container Taproom, select venues in Cornwall and further afield in the national craft beer scene, and also on our brand new online store!
