Who are we ?

Howard Town Brewery is owned by husband and wife teams Les and Janet Dove, and Tony Hulme and Rowena Curley.

Les is a consultant engineer, Tony is an analyst programmer, while Janet and Rowena are both teachers.

Both families have lived in Glossop for about eighteen years.

Tony now works full time for the Brewery, assisted by Janet, and although Les has kept his day job, he probably puts in more hours than the other three combined !

None of us had much brewing experience before we started, and we are very grateful for the assistance provided by Nick and Jon at the Millstone Brewery, and Dave Porter, who supplied and installed the equipment.

Although lacking in brewing experience, we all have a longstanding and rewarding relationship with beer.
