Good Chemistry founders depart the brewery
Bristol-based Good Chemistry Brewing co-founders Kelly Sidgwick and Bob Cary have decided to step away from the brewery. Despite their departure, the brewery will remain open while they search for their replacements.
Good Chemistry, which has spent 10 years brewing, is now seeking “interested parties” who would like to take the brewery business on and continue to keep it running to sate the thirst of the Bristol beer scene.
Speaking about their departure from the brewery, Sidgwick said: “We have committed a decade to building up this business from scratch to something we are immensely proud of. But we have also got to the point in our lives where we want to make some changes, have a break, and try something new. We would love to see brewing continue on William Street, and we’re currently talking to interested parties.”
Cary added: “We’re deeply grateful for the support we’ve received over the past 10 years. Bristol has always backed Bristol, and we’re proud to have built our business here.”
Sidgwick and Cary “prepare to explore new challenges and take a well-earned break” they have assured that “the brewery remains active” and have said that “brewing and packaging continue, with exciting new releases – including the return of a fan favourite – coming soon to the webshop and stockists across the city”.

Added to this, they revealed that the popular Think While You Drink event series will also return this autumn, with details to be announced shortly.
In addition to the brewery, the company’s two pubs The Good Measure and the Kings Head will also remain open under the leadership of their dedicated teams.
Sidgwick admitted: “We understand this news may come as a surprise. Our team remains focused on delivering the quality and integrity that we’re known for, and we want to thank our customers, collaborators and community for their continued support. We’re so proud of what we’ve created together.”
She added that if anyone would be interested in exploring the opportunity to take on the brewery site, they are encouraged to get in touch with Good Chemistry directly.
