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?

Keg @ Euston Tap. Pours deep hazy gold with white head. Aroma is hoppy tropical fruit. Taste follows with a fairly sweet, orangey, exotic hop character with resinous marmalade. Faint herbal menthol on the finish. Not entirely sure where that came from. Good tho.

The hop combo is boring. Good yeast though. Lots of soft malts but a bit generic

Draft. An amber beer with a lazing beige head. The aroma has notes of malt, oranges, and hops. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, spices, hops, and citrus fruits, leading to a bitter finish.
