XT Brewing
Microbrewery
in Long Crendon,
Buckinghamshire,
England 🏴
Associated Venue: XT Brewery
Established in 2011
We designed and installed our 18 barrel brewery during 2011 and brewed the first full scale gyle in November 2011. The equipment was custom built for us in Burton upon Trent.
The brewery is on the beautiful Notley Farm estate on the Oxfordshire Buckinghamshire borders, with far reaching views over the Chiltern hills. We are as eco-friendly and sustainable as possible; recycling nearly all our waste products and our spent raw materials go to local farmers to feed their cattle and pigs.

GBBF Day 1. Cask. Light haze on this gold beer, bubbly white head. Palate is light and semi dry and has modest carbonation. Thin malts, very modest sweetness. Light floral hop. Very mild hop fruits. Light dry finish. Clean. Whatever these top secret hops are - TRY STICKING MORE OF THEM IN YOUR BEER! Thanks!

Cask at GBBF. It oohrsy clear golden with minimal head. The aroma is earthy, grainy, touch of stone fruits, wood and cereal. The taste is dry, sort of bitter, green, grassy, earthy, grainy, toasty, cheddar cheese and wood with a drying finish. Medium body and soft carbonation. A bit too English for liking. Cheesy also.
