We believe that great beer should be brewed with passion and love, using the finest possible ingredients to create an array of complex, long flavours. Just like a long journey through the Sahara dessert, the flavour journey will be long and rewarding.
Our slow brewed beer and multi step mashing method crafts a beer with unsurpassed malt and caramel flavours. We refuse to filter our beers ensuring all those good flavours remain. We also bottle and keg condition so our beers can be stored for a long time. They just get better with the passing of time. The Pony says ”Dude it’s so good!”
At the Pony, our unique brewery door outlet “The Brewshed” is located right inside our commercial brewing space. There’s nothing as relaxing as watching our brewers hard at work while you enjoy the fruits of their labours with a beer tasting plank!

It has a strong scent of orange peel that largely overwhelms grapefruit and breadcrumbs. That imbalance is also present on tasting and the problem is compounded by a thin palate. I love Prancing Pony, but this is not their best.

Keg from BrewDog Leicester. Reddish brown, cloudy with a large beige head. Intense malty aroma with suggestions of strawberry and vanilla bean. Sweet malt-led taste with more berry flavours. Finish is rescued by a balancing hop bitterness. It's pretty delicious all told, although slightly one-sided in the heaviness of the malt.

Creamy frothy white head on an auburn still body. Pine, dark berries & sugar aroma. Medium bodied, sharp on the palate - very clean on the back. Much as the aroma, pine, outdoors, fresh, dark berry & a slightly malty finish. Good one
