Description
Established in 2004 by Robert Wicks, the Westerham Brewery Company is proud to bring brewing back to the historic town of Westerham. With a rich brewing heritage, Westerham can once again be proud of locally brewed, top quality real ales. Producing exceptional craft beer for the local market, we support the initiative to reduce food miles in the supply chain. Many ‘national brands’ are transported long distances and suffer from poor storage and handling.
Westerham Brewery Company has revived many of the much-loved flavours of the old Black Eagle Brewery, which closed in 1965 following the catastrophic consolidation by the ‘Big Brewers’ in the 1950’s. The yeast is re-cultured from the Black Eagle strain.

Gravicask on train B at Spa Valley 9th Beer & Cider Festival. Shared with Finn. Misty golden body, low white head, faint lacing. Herbal hops with a citric touch on the nose. Mid-dry fruity hops to the taste buds, hints of lemon, joined by grainy malts. Drying end. Fair enough. (Tunbridge Wells 18.10.2019).

Cask (Flying Horse JDW, Gatwick) - Golden in colour. Grapefruit, lemon and a whiff of sulphur in the aroma. The taste is fairly hoppy and resinous with floral hops, grapefruit and other citrus notes.
