Description
We’re Josh and Frankie, husband and wife. We set up The Park Brewery in 2014 with the aim of creating really sumptuous juicy beers. Hop forward, stand out ales to be savoured and enjoyed.
Inspired by the new wave of microbreweries surfacing at the time, and loving the great beers coming through, Josh purchased a home brew kit to learn more about the process and started experimenting with the wonderful world of hops.
We named ourselves The Park Brewery due to our location, next to our favourite open space – Richmond Park. In an increasingly fast paced world, time out and nature is really important to us. We like to think our beer represents this – a moment to reflect – beer to be considered and enjoyed.

Ale House, Chelmsfaarhd! Cask. Light haze on this gold beer, tidy white head. Palate is smooth and semi dry, reasonable fine carbonation. Light malts, semi sweet. Light floralness. Orangey fruits. Dry floralness. Trace of apple. Spicy bitterness. Tropical fruits underneath. Nice but could be crisper.

Bottle on the train home, 68011, 22/06/17. Golden blonde with a white head of bubbles ... from my bottle chugging view. Nose is citric sherbets, roasted grains, bready notes, melon, tangerine. Taste comprises melon, light peach, tangerine, grassy, toasted grains, Mandarin, roasted grains. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close peppered with light floral hop bitterness. Decent enough refreshing golde .... new label and perhaps some recipe tweaks since a year ago?

(Draught at Craft Beer Co Islington, London, 22 April 2017) Hazy yellow colour with foamy, white head. Malty, wheaty nose with bread, citrus, clove and grass. Malty, wheaty taste with notes of bread, grain, citrus, some banana and a gentle bitterness. Light body, with a touch of sweetness. Decently drinkable, but hardly exciting. Quite enjoyable.

Cask handpull at Reading BF 2017. Clear amber gold colour lasting white head. Citrus hop aroma grapefruit no doubt. A rather good apa. Good light citrus fruit with some good acid intensity.

Cask at Craft Islington. It pours cloudy yellow with a small white head. The aroma is fresh, fragrant, wheat, cracker, green banana, herbal, coriander seed, spice, sweat and earth. The taste is bitter, quite juicy, orange, tangerine, waxy peel, peppery spice, straw, cracker, white bread, grassy, green banana and slightly lactic with a drying finish. Light - medium body and fine carbonation. Pretty interesting stuff. I like it.
