Brill in Buckinghamshire was the inspiration behind Bree from J R Tolkein's trilogy, The Lord of the Rings.
It is now the home of the award winning Vale brewery and our equally inspirational beers. Having moved from Haddenham our new home features the brewery, offices and a brewery shop.
Our real ales are traditionally brewed, using only the highest quality natural ingredients, floor malted barley and whole cone hops.
Visit us in Brill to buy directly, visit one of our four pubs to taste our beers or as a starter simply browse our web site.
