South Frodingham, the home of our brewery, was historically known as Frothingham after the village’s main family. With a name like that, brewing was inevitable!

Bottle from Waitrose. Chestnut uncoloured, with a moderately-sized, off-white, head. Sweetish bitter, with some red berries, caramel, toasted bread and touch of leafy hops. Fine.

500ml bottle at home on 22nd Sep 2016. Poured a lovely clean, clear amber with a decent off-white head. Toffee aroma from the malts, nutty notes too, semi-sweet, semi-bitter and highly carbonated (a bit fizzy actually). Liked it.

Bottle from Keelham Farm Shop, Thornton. Clear copper coloured with an extremely thin head. Has a crisp malty base, some hops, some sweetness. It’s a tasty balance.

Fra cask på Walters Hull 23 Nov 15. Mørk gyldenbrun. Middels høyt tett skum. Forsiktig aroma av bær. Diffus smak. Mest fersken. Blir svakt syrlig etter hvert.
