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 at The Pantiles Tap Tunbridge Wells, Cloudy pale gold lasting white head. Coconut grapefruit aroma. It is quite intense and a bit all over the place in the flavours sorachi ace coconut grapefruit citra tropical fruit from the mosaic. I like this a lot. But it is also a complete mess of flavours. Odd but highly entertaining.

Tap. Friends of Ham, Leeds. Clear, very dark brown. Fine halo of tan head. Digestive biscuit, vanilla, coffee maltiness. Chocolatey and wheaty. Taste is soft, fruity sweet. Some roasty bitternes. Palate is smooth, and clean. Doesn’t feel 9% by a long way. Finishes smooth, chocolatey, vanilla sweet, with a roast coffee bean close. Very nice. Very drinkable.
