Description
At present there are five of us working at the brewery – Luke and Stuart who assist with deliveries and the cleaning and filling of casks. In the office, there’s Julia AKA Fuzzy, who doubles as Droxford’s famous lollipop lady. She keeps all the paperwork in good order which is a good thing because this was a weakness of ours. The Bowman family is of course completed by Ray and myself.
Our beers have evolved over the years into three really popular regular brews and each month we have a 4.5% special on too.

hand-pulled half-pint in my local Wetherspoons on 29th June 2018. More amber than 'brown' body wise, beige head. Decent enough blend with a hoppy, woody, twiggy flavour over a bed of maltiness.
