Our well known Classic; this was the first ale produced by the Brewery, back in 2003, when we were called Topsham & Exminster Brewery. We may have changed our name and refined the recipe a tad, but Ferryman remains a firm favourite with many and remains one of our best-sellers.
A copper coloured Premium ale. Beautifully well balanced flavour enhanced with generous handfuls of English Goldings hops. All our ales are cask conditioned and made using only the finest local sourced ingredients, including traditionally floor-dried, locally produced malts.

Cask @ Kittyโs, Helsinki. Aroma has bready malt, some toffee and hay. Flavour is rather bready with malt and some grapefruit. Finishes with grassy and some slightly harsh herbal bitterness. A bit watery, the hops are nice though.

Cask at the Merchants Inn, Rugby, 03/08/14. Golden with a well appointed off white head that stays to make small talk. Nose is biscuit malt, light spice, nutty leanings. Taste comprises mellow fruit tones, biscuit, caramel. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, bitter linger in the close. Ok bitter.

Bottle 50 cl. Courtesy of Alice BS. Pours a hazy nutty brown with a small, rough off-white head. Subtle roasty aroma with a little licorice. Medium body, low carbonation, sweet roast and some ddried dark fruits. Somewhat minerally. Distinct bitterness in the finish. Closer to a Mild than to a Bitter Iโd say. 051011
