Description
We started brewing in February 2009 in the old loading bay of the former Tolly Cobbold Brewery in Ipswich on the Cliff Quay. The Tolly Brewery is located in the heart of the industrial dock area of Ipswich, and is a hugely historic site with brewing being carried out here since the 1700’s.
By 2012 it was becoming obvious that the old loading bay we were located in, which was not part of the Victorian brewery, was coming to the end of its natural life. So we took the reluctant decision to relocate. After much hard looking, we found a site in Debenham not far from our sister brewery in Earl Soham . This new site makes it much more logistical sense, so now we spend more time brewing and less time shuffling through the traffic between the 2 site.

Chelmsford Winter Fest. Clear brown beer. Apologetic suddy head. Christmas spice nose of dried fruits and sweet spices. Light palate. Sweet orange oils?!? Light cloves and cinnamon. A Christmas beer in February! Okay but not exactly subtle.

Cask at Chapel Beer Festival. Clear dark red -brown beer. Semi dry palate. Low carbonation. Fresh malt, a little dark toffee. Just a little hop fruit but ultimately this is a malty beer. Not too dry or bitter. Finishes with some toffee apple.
