Description
The Blythe Brewery is a small brewery, based in the rural setting of Hill Ridware in Staffordshire, yet only 11 miles from the brewing mecca of Burton upon Trent. The business was started in 2002 by Rob Greenway following his early retirement from 3M. Rob had been producing his own homebrew ales and beers for many years and the early retirement gave him the opportunity to use his knowledge both as a chemist and as a homebrewer to take on the challenge of producing high-quality naturally produced ales and beers on a small commercial scale. All the ales and beers produced at Blythe are traditional cask or bottle-conditioned.

Bottle at chriso’s Pre-GBBF Shindig ’11. It pours amber with a massive foamy white head and low carbonation. The nose is lots and lots of celery (off-putting to say the least) and some caramel. The taste is leather, wood, hay, grass, biscuit, cardboard and plastic, with a bitter-dry finish. Not for me.
