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.

During RBESG 2009. Hotel tastings . Hazy golden color, medium white head, raspberry aroma. Raspberry taste, quite bitter (much more than I expected). Quite unbalanced, but a bit better than the cherry crap.

Bottle, Carringtons, Chorlton. Golden pour with a lively white head. Aroma had some fragrant hops , yeast, and citrus notes. Slightly watery palate. Gentle flavour that displayed the same traits as the aroma. Some bitterness in the finish. A nice guzzler to acconpany some spicy fried chicken and rice. Inoffensive on the whole
