Why Should Brewers Have All The Fun?

Beer shouldn’t be designed behind closed doors.

The Fellowship of Beer is a nationwide crew of drinkers, home-brewers, beer writers and pros who suggest, vote on, and help create every beer we make.

In the last year alone our members dreamed up
– Birch-smoked Grodziskie
– Elderberry Stock Ale
– Barrel-aged Doppelbock
– West Coast Marzen Hybrid – and more.

Limited to 450 members. Want in?

  • Sean M

    “As members we get to choose what gets brewed, and then be the first to taste it. It is so unique. It’s more than just hazy IPAs…it’s every style you could think of, and many you wouldn’t !”

  • Angela C

    “Together, we create what we want to drink."

  • Belper Beer Club

    “One of the most exciting things I’ve heard in the world of craft beer. For me, it seems like Steam Machine is the one brewery that could do this, and I can’t think of a safer pair of hands than Nick’s, that we would entrust on a project like this.”

  • Andrew S

    “The FOB is a beer sub that is actually community driven. I've tried, and loved, styles of beer that I would not have tried without the ideas of the friendly members.”

Who's Behind This?

Founded a decade ago, Steam Machine Brewing Company were part of the UK craft-beer boom. Our mission: show how vast beer can be by reviving lost recipes, foraging botanicals and barrel-ageing everything from milds to imperial stouts.

Hundreds of beers later, The Fellowship of Beer lets you steer that journey.
We doubled membership in 2024 and will cap at 450 members.
