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 Craft Beer Clerkenwell, London, 19 Apr 2016) Reddish brown colour with foamy, off-white head. Malty, hoppy nose with dark bread, orange pee land caramel.

330ml bottle. Pours hazy gold with medium white head. Aroma is dank tropical fruits and grapefruit. Taste continues, with a good juicy character, some pithy lemon rind, mango, tangerine and lime. Quite pithy and bitter, but enough fleshy fruit to keep things moving. Nice.

Cask @ Old Gate, Hebden Bridge. Golden-amber, crisp, with a thick frothy head and an active carbonation that sent it running down the side of the glass. Has lots of tropical fruit aroma and flavours, with a crosp, relatively easy-drinking texture.

Cask at The Stockbridge Tap. Clear amber/ruby body with a dense beige head. Excellent lacing. Aroma of milk chocolate, earth and plum. Flavour of berries, weak filter coffee and a tangy, bitter finish. Thin body with a smooth, creamy texture. Subtle and drinkable - exactly as a Mild should be.
