Description
COTSWOLD CRAFT BEER SINCE 1994

Using traditional methods our beers are brewed in small batches, and our Head Brewer Colin Williams oversees every aspect of the process. From the milling of the malt, the boiling of the hops, to the filling of the casks – everything is lovingly crafted to ensure that our beers reach you in perfect condition. Each beer recipe is known as the Grist. Colin and his team come up with the recipes, using over 20 years experience they work out the perfect blend of malts, hops and other ingredients. The night before a brew, the appropriate amount of malts are weighed out and loaded into the hopper of our vintage mill.

Copper brown, no head. Light flowery hoppy nose. Sweetish, light flowery hoppy flavor. Flat mouthfeel (no suprises here). Uninspiring cask ale.

Cask handpull, County Hotel, JDW, Ashford. I’ve had this several times and hadn’t realised that I hadn’t rated it. Shame that this isn’t a very good example of this beer. Copper colour, thin head. A malty bitter, but with an odd chemical flavour to it. First beer of the day out of the lines I think. Good hop finish though. Normally it is malty and full in mouth with good toffee and then a decent hop finish

Cask conditioned at Merton Summer Beer Festival September 2004. Nice light golden coloured beer, a bit thin and dry but really quite hoppy and very pleasant.

My brother lives in Greet near Winchcombe so this gets a regular pasting from me when I am down there. A very refreshing amber beer with a nice tangy fruity bite, a decent beer that finishes with a flourish of hops.

Bottle picked up at farm shop near Evesham 03-06-06 Golden colour again some floral notes present crisp and hoppy but not quite up to the mark that the cask beer was

[Cask at GBBF 2005] An amber beer with a disappearing beige head. The aroma is sweet fruity and malty, combined with light notes of caramel. The flavor has strong notes of caramel, combined with light notes of hops, leading to a dry bitter end.

Cask at County Hotel JDW Ashford. Golden beer. Expecting it to fall into the blond citrus hoppy summer ale category, but this was maltier and probably more well rounded. Still a bit undistinguished

[Cask at Volunteers Arms, GBBF, 2004] A hazy amber beer with a disappering white head. The aroma is sweet with primary notes of hops and grass. And so is the flavor.
