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?

Bottle from The Beerhive. Dark brown body with a short-lived beige head. No lacing. Aroma of dark chocolate, raspberries, vanilla, Marmite and hazelnut. Flavour of blueberries, coffee, chocolate-covered raisins and Black Forest gâteau. Surprisingly thin body with a smooth texture. Light fizz. Not the prettiest, but a flavoursome beer with a nice berry thing going on. Very easy to drink for 9% ABV.

Huddersfield Oktoberfest 2015. Clouded amber in colour. Tropical fruit hopped, neither under or over-stated, and it lingers in the palate.

Bottle from The Bottle Shop London and drunk at home. Hazy gold orange colour with a lasting cream coloured head. Hoppy aroma, some white pepper. Quite fruity in the mouth, some tangerine and lemon. It’s a little less than clean. Bit earthy. Some bitterness. OK, but not the best lager in the UK. Crisp hoppy finish though.
