Description
Our brewery started life up in Morpeth, Northumberland, back in 2012. One name change later, we settled on being called Anarchy Brew Co. and started brewing our core beers, packed with flavour that we still make today (Blonde Star and Citra Star). After running out of room at the old site, we decided we needed somewhere bigger. And in October we moved to new digs in Newcastle upon Tyne, where you’ll find us today. The new Anarchy brewery opened its doors in October 2018 in Walkergate, with the added bonus of our new taproom.

Keg draught at Tønne, Leicester. Mid- to dark orange gold, hazy as fuck with a small white head. Hoppy citrus aroma, some apricot and a little hit of berry. Sweet taste, juicy orange ge and berry to the fore. A slight bitterness in the shirt finish. Body feels a bit watery, but the high carbonation hides this to some degree. It starts out great but becomes that little bit generic. Still very decent overall.

Draught. Amber colour with a mediumsized foamy white head. Aroma is alcohol, some sweet toffee tones along with mild fruity and floral tones. Flavour is pretty much following the path of the aroma, in a very gentle and pleasant way.
