Skinner's Brewery

Skinner's Brewery

Skinner’s is a British brewery founded in 1997 by Steve and Sarah Skinner in Cornwall, Cornwall, England, UK. The company produces cask ales and bottled beers, the names of which often come from Cornish folklore. Several recent ales have a connection to surfing culture, such as Skin Dog Cornish lager, which is named after the owner’s son, Ben “Skindog” Skinner who is a surfer.

The brewery gained popularity through its range of cask ales and bottled beers, many of which are inspired by Cornish folklore, myths, and maritime heritage. These creative themes helped Skinner’s stand out in the UK craft beer scene, with branding that celebrates Cornwall’s identity, humour, and coastal lifestyle.

Over time, Skinner’s beers became widely available across pubs, restaurants, and bars throughout Cornwall and beyond, helping to strengthen the visibility of Cornish brewing on a national level. The brewery has also been associated with supporting local events, festivals, and the wider hospitality industry, contributing to Cornwall’s tourism and food-and-drink economy.
