About
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. Friends of Ham, Leeds. Bright gold. Bit of haze. Dense, lasting, white head. Lemon and orange hop. Vanilla sweetness. Fresh maltiness. Taste is light bitter first off, with the sweetness mingling in. The bitterness rises, and gets zesty, and pithy. Smooth palate. Fairly full. Finishes zesty bitter. Very nice.

Keg at Brewdog Shepard’s Bush. Clearing up the last of the tap takeover. Translucent reddy orange coloured pour with a lasting off white head. Aroma is sharp lemon, pollen, orange rind, tangy fruit. Flavour is composed of tangy sharp citrus fruits, hint of caramel, midget gem mixed fruits. Palate is semi sweet, highish carbonation and a nice dry finish. Lingering tangy orange rind and grapefruit. Hop is nicely balanced by a little bit of sweetness coming through. Packs a decent hop bitterness punch.

Keg at Brewdog Shepard’s Bush. Clearing up the last of the tap takeover. Aroma is intense sweet caramel, vanilla, rum and raisin cakey malts, booze, dried fruits, figs and raisin. Dark brown / opaque black coloured pour with a nice but fleeting dark tan head. Flavour is big and bold, rounded caramel, with tangy booze soaked fruits, rum and oak, little cakey malts. Pretty smooth for the abv. Palate is full and smooth on the tongue with tingling carbonation. Lingering wood and oak tannin on the tongue, lingering sharp tangy dried fruits. Really good.

6.8/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 6 Flavor 7 Texture 6 Overall 7
Keg at Brewdog Shepard’s Bush. Clearing up the last of the tap takeover. Mostly clear light golden / straw coloured pour with a lasting fading white head. Aroma is really unusual mix of spicy citrus and onion / chive.sweet berry and a lil bit of plasticy phenols. Flavour is composed of wheaty grains, doughy, light mango tropical fruit, veg, midget gem hop. Palate is airy with some wheaty grains and medium finish. The Belgian IPA is really hard to pull off and this one hasn’t quite managed it.
