Description
Attic Brew Co. was borne out of years of beer consumption and small scale production. Oli and Sam met at university in Cardiff where their beer obsession began. Sam began brewing in his bedroom of their shared house and continued after graduating, moving back to Birmingham and setting up his home brewery in his attic.

In 2018, after they'd had the ridiculous idea to start a brewery, Oli left his job in London and moved to Birmingham. They took out a loan, rented a run down old industrial unit in Stirchley and bought a small brew kit that was older than they were. Several months of painting, building and, finally, brewing, allowed them to open the taproom doors on the 23rd November 2018.

Attic was greeted with an unbelievable show of support from local drinkers, who bought into their varied beer board and new take on the traditional local (editors note; we continue to be indebted to you all

Review # 1111 ;-) Clear dark brown pour with a white head. Aromas of malt/grain, hints of cream and licquorice. Flavour is (roasted) malt, some milk/cream - herbs of a decent bitter finish. Not bad.

On the day I'm drinking this beer back in 1690 it was the French fleet rolling on the waves as they defeated the English and Dutch at the Battle of Beachy Head. Not a huge head on this once it settled, but consistent with its fair citric bitterness coupled with some pine in aroma.

Can from Systembolaget. Sweet, dank mango on nose. Wet grassy tropical flavour. Could imagine it goes well on cask. Really nice ending with bitterness and freshness. Lovely.

440ml can from the brewery. Poured a hazy yellow golden colour with a fizzy white head. The aroma is grainy, light grassy. The flavour is moderate bitter, with a fresh, somewhat light, crisp, light dank, nettle, light orange citrus, light hop bitter palate. Medium to light bodied with average carbonation.

Draft at the brewery. Poured a hazy yellow golden colour with a lasting frothy white head. The aroma is grainy, tropical citrus. The flavour is moderate bitter and sweet, with a smooth, fresh, mango, passionfruit, peachy, light floral hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with average to soft carbonation. One of the nicest Attic beers I’ve ever had. Very moreish and sessionable.
