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.

Cask at Swan, Stone. Pours dark ruby (as you might guess from the name !) with a small tan head. There’s a fruity aroma with plums and cherries plus some malts. In the mouth it is slightly sweet, but very smooth with a creamy texture.. Roasted malts and dark fruits (plums and raisins) in the flavour leading to a fruity and slightly dry finish. This is rather nice.

Cask at Swan, Stone. Pours golden yellow with minimal foamy almost white head and good lacing. There’s malts and leon rind in the aroma. In the mouth there is a brief burst of sweetness before it becomes sharp and juicy. Plenty of citrus and some grains in the flavour with some floral hops coming through later on. Finish is quite btter. Not at all bad but a bit thin and lacking in body.
