Gritty McDuffs

Gritty's first brewery was designed and manufactured in 1988 by Peter Austin & Partners in Ringwood, Hampshire, England. All subsequent renovations and expansions of our brewery have remained true to the original, classic style of the English pub brewery. The copper-domed, brick faced brew kettle is the showpiece of the brewery and sits in a tiled room behind large viewing windows in our Wharf Street basement brewery bar. The pub brewery produces our five classic ales (Sebago Light, Portland Headlight Pale Ale, McDuff's Best Bitter, Best Brown Ale, Black Fly Stout) and many seasonal ales depending on the time of year. From its inception, our brewery has been producing award-winning ales, and production has grown at a rate of thirty percent per year. We use only the finest hops, English barley malt, and a special English ale yeast and water to produce hand-crafted ales that are all-natural and always fresh. Gritty's Portland pub brewery recently passed a significant milestone, our 3000th Brew! Here's to 3000 more!
