Description
Myself and partner Sue began brewing hand crafted beers in our garden shed, with just two fermenters and a four barrel plant, the ales were bottled in the kitchen!

The brewery started in 2002 initially as Leek Brewery in the heart of the Staffordshire Moorlands.

In 2012 the name Leek Brewery was dropped and changed into Staffordshire Brewery.

Bottled. A hazy amber beer with a yellowish head. The aroma has strong notes of fruit as well as medium notes of alcohol, and malt. The flavor is very malty with strong notes of alcohol, spices, and bread, leading to a dry alcoholic finish. Thanks Papsoe for sharing.
