Alex Brodie
Alex Brodie is the owner of Hawkshead Brewery, which he founded in 2002, in the heart of the English Lake District. In 2006 he moved the brewery to a new site and installed a purpose built 20 brl plant. Hawkshead is now a level 3 brewery, producing 70 brls per week in 2008.
Alex came to brewing in his fifties, after a lifetime of dedicated enjoyment of beer and a thirty year career as a journalist, largely in foreign news.
