Description
Since our inception on a commercial scale in 2008 we have evolved as a brewery immeasurably.
The Brewery has moved up several gears in the past 12 months & is now growing at an alarming rate!

We as a team have grown with the brewery. Started in 2008 with Directors James Farran, Andy Baker & Meyrick Kirk the brewery now has a fulltime drayman, a head brewer, a managing director & soon to be further additions to the team.

We are a brewery with an extreme passion & a strong identity, our beers are unapologetically flavour forward in nature, hop & malt laden beers that challenge today's modern beer lover. Beers with heart, soul & raging personality.

In the coming years we plan to continue to grow by fervently pushing the boundaries of what is possible when brewing beer, to excite you the deserving beer connoisseur who should settle for nothing less than than beers that excite & ensare your senses. We invest heavily in our beers with LOTS of the very best ingredients, why settle for beers that don't?

Cask at the Euston tap east. A clear golden coloured pour with a fine white head. Aroma is mix hedgerow berries, soft bready malts, green berries, little vape cigarette om the nose as well. Flavour is composed of soft bready malts, jammy fruits, berries. Nicely balanced, delicate hop character. Palate is slightly grains, decent cask condition. Firm hop bitterness. Nice drop.

Can. Turner's, Sheffield. Light gold, with a soft haze. Thin, sticky, lasting, white head. Nose has dry, cracker malts. Pithy lemon. Cut grass. Taste is light dry, with a quenching, citrus peel bitterness. Light body. Crisp carbonation. Dries out somewhat. More pithy bitterness to finish. The aroma doesn't particularly jump out of the glass, but it's a very tasty, clean, sessioner.
