 We’re The Barking Cat Brewing Company — a bold new brewery with a mischievous streak and a serious love for great beer. Born in Poole and brewed with pride, we’re on a mission to bring you unforgettable pints, quirky branding, and a tap room that feels like home (but with better beer).

 We’ve got the recipes. We’ve got the character. We’ve got the claws sunk deep into our community already with our award winning pub. Now we need your help to raise £15,000 to finish our tap room, fire up the pumps, and unleash our first full lineup of beers — including Pale Ales, IPA's, NEIPA's, West Coast IPA's, Stouts, Porters and crisp lagers.

 Your support will help us:

     🛠️ Finish building our tap room — a space for locals, beer lovers, and curious cats alike (dogs welcome ;) ) 

    🛠️ Complete the Cellar works - this includes a decked area above the cellar! 

    🛠️ Complete the upgrade to the toilets - Currently there is only a toilet for the men... we need to change the room around so there is a separate ladies.  

     🍺 Launch our first full product line with eye-catching packaging and unforgettable flavours

     🎉 Host our first big bash: The Barking Cat Brew Co. Launch Party 

 Whether you’re a craft beer connoisseur, a fan of feline puns, or just someone who loves seeing local businesses thrive, we’d love you to be part of our story.

 Back us today and help The Barking Cat Brewing Company pounce into Poole’s beer scene with claws out, casks filling and kegs brimming! 

This Crowdfunder runs for 9 weeks, taking us just before Christmas... so if you're stuck for a Christmas prezzie.... THIS is what will make someone happy! ;) 

Thanks for your support - See you in the Brewery! (Estimated opening is Late January 2026).
