About
XT Brewing Co is an innovative, independent brewery crafting a wide range of exceptional beers. Our XT beers form the core range of characterful, full flavoured brews and our wild side, Animal Brewing Co, pushes the boundaries with new and exciting one-off specials. The options are as infinite as the natural world.

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.

Cask at XT Brewery beer club members night, Thursday 8th September 2016 Dark amber with a slim white head. Traditional with a fair dose of hops offering up a light bitterness, I’m guessing UK hops, malty, smooth, pleasant bitter, actually a little hoppier than expected. Not bad. A6 A4 T7 P3 OV13 3.3

Cask at the Bootlegger, High Wycombe. A slightly hazy pale amber pour with a ring of white head; aroma of acidic white wine; sharp and sour in the mouth with gooseberry and grape juice flavours; then a sweet grape must taste to finish. Sharp and refreshing, and happily lacking the farmyard dimension of some saisons.

Cask at the Bootlegger, High Wycombe. Deep amber. Sweet bready taste with light banana. Mild spice and a generic fruitiness but mainly sweet and bready and rather dull. I’m normally a big fan of XT but this brew’s really not doing it for me.

Gravity cask@Ealing Beer Festival, London
Festival special. Slightly hazy orange color, tiny small white head. Acidic rhubarb is evident in the nose. Light-bodied. Fruity, rhubarb flavors. Summer drink. Flattish but suits to this brew well.
