Hawkstone Brewery
The Hawkstone Brewery was born from Jeremy Clarkson’s desire to turn his Cotswold‑grown barley into a premium beer, leading to the creation of Hawkstone Lager and later Hawkstone IPA. The brewery’s origins are rooted in Clarkson’s Diddly Squat Farm in Oxfordshire, where he began farming in 2019 for his series Clarkson’s Farm.

The idea emerged in 2021 when falling farm subsidies pushed Clarkson to find new uses for his barley. He partnered with a local brewery near Bourton‑on‑the‑Water to produce a high‑quality, craft‑focused beer using his own crops.

The name “Hawkstone” comes from the ancient Hawk Stone in the Cotswolds, tying the brand to local heritage.
