Hurns Brewing Company

[1][2] Hurns premises were in Northampton Lane in Swansea and they initially produced bottled soda water, ginger beer, lemonade and cordials.

The company went into decline for the next ten years, until Idris's grand daughter Connie and her brother were old enough to take over in 1976.

[3] The Hurns Brewing Company acquired the Tomos Watkin brewery in 2002.

The present incarnation of Tomos Watkin was started in 1995 by Simon Buckley.

[4] Tomos Watkin is now owned by Drop Bear Beer Co. and all of its beers are now produced and packaged at the Drop Bear Brewery in Llansamlet, Swansea.
