where it all began

veteran owned organisation

Two former army colleagues sat in the tranquil surroundings of their garden amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, indulging in a glass or two of red wine. While in the midst of a stimulating conversation, a moment of epiphany struck them. They decided to create an airborne beer for Arnhem. This embryonic idea, however, underwent a transformation with the passage of time, and eventually culminated in the establishment of Dropzone Brewery. The primary objective of this venture was to provide a platform that would promote opportunities to aid those who struggle with the transition from service life to civilian life, both physically and mentally.

As the idea evolved, a sense of purpose and reality infused the venture, instilling in the founders a desire to create something that would make a positive difference in society. Thus, the concept of a virtual squadron and company bar was born. This served as a means to bring people together, creating a supportive environment that fosters camaraderie and understanding.

The founder of Dropzone Brewery recognised the importance of facilitating a smooth and comfortable transition for those who have served in the military and emergency services. This is why DZ decided to use their skills and resources to create a cause that provides much-needed support to this community. Their vision is to make a tangible impact on the lives of those who have served their country, by helping them transition into civilian life with dignity and respect.

In summary, Dropzone Brewery represents a story of inspiration, dedication, and purpose. It is a venture that seeks to create a positive change in the world, one beer at a time. The founders' unwavering commitment to this cause is a testament to their deep sense of responsibility and their desire to serve their fellow comrades.

WITHIN HOURS WE WERE LIVING THE DREAM, WEAPONS CLEANED, FACES SCRUBBED AND WITH CLEAN CLOTHES ON WE CLINKED A COLD ONE. WE AGREED THERE ARE GOOD BEERS AND BAD BEERS BUT IT’S THE SITUATION YOU’RE IN AND HOW HARD YOU’VE WORKED TO EARN IT THAT MATTERS MOST.
our purpose

GIVING BACK TO THE VETERAN COMMUNITY

As service men and women, we came to the realization that the experiences we shared were not unique to us alone. The camaraderie we built, the hardships we endured, and the bonds we formed were common to all who have served. We worked hard and earned the right to enjoy a cold beer with our friends, knowing that it represented the many memories we had created together.

It was this shared sentiment that led us to create a beer that would serve as a tribute to our fellow veterans. A beer that would allow us to remember the good times and the bad, and the moments that made our service truly memorable. We wanted to create a beer that would embody the spirit of our shared experiences and help to forge new memories.

Every beer tells a story, and we want our beer to tell a story of brotherhood, sacrifice, and pride. We want it to be a symbol of the bond that exists between all who have served, and a testament to the strength and resilience of the veteran community.

At Dropzone, we are proud to commit 100% of our profits to help veterans suffering from PTSD through our charity partners. We believe that it is our duty to support those who have sacrificed so much for our country, and we are honored to do our part in making a positive impact on their lives.
