The Editorial Team

Who We Are

The HopStarBrewery editorial team is a small group of beer writers, brewers, and editors based in the UK. We operate independently from commercial teams to deliver clear, reliable, and accessible content about our beers, brewing, and the wider craft community.

Editorial Line

We cover brewing techniques, ingredient provenance, sustainability, events, and responsible enjoyment. Our features are evidence-based; opinion pieces are clearly signposted. Reviews and educational articles are written to inform, never to hype, and are free from undue commercial influence.

Journalistic Values

Accuracy, clarity, and balance guide our work. We verify facts, cite sources where appropriate, and update articles when new information arises. Any samples, partnerships, or material benefits relevant to coverage are disclosed within the content.

Journalistic Ethics and Deontology

We respect the right of reply, avoid conflicts of interest, and maintain a clear separation between editorial and advertising. We do not target under-18s and promote responsible drinking. We respect privacy and comply with applicable UK laws and advertising standards. Errors are corrected promptly and transparently with a visible note of the change.
