Description
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.

Hand pump at Chesterfield Ale House - Nice golden look to this one, thin white head. Nose of tropicals, picked out mango and guava, with a taste that builds on this. Robust syrupy mouthfeel, with a good bitter finish. Best XT I’ve had.

Cask, handpump at The James Street Tavern, Cowley Rd, Oxford, Monday 11th November 2013. Pours reddy/amber, clear with a slim white head. Quite raspy bitterness but underpinned with a robust malt base and tempered sweetness. Full bodied, fruity but with a bit of caramel, roof of mouth getting a little grapefruity coating. I like this, plenty in here to like but with a good malty base and bitterness. A7 A4 T8 P4 Ov15 3.8

Cask at the Henley Brew House, Henley. A attractive reddish copper colour with a loose cream head - a perfect looking traditional bitter; fruity aroma with a touch of orange; rich taste of orange marmalade and malt; and a clean caramel finish. A well made bitter.

Had this at St Aldates Tavern, Oxford, Saturday 12th October 2013 Pours amber with a reddy hue, off white head atop. Perfectly decent very traditional pint from XT I guess the style and flavours are entirely appropriate, but it does seem quite interesting drinking an XT beer which dare I say it is so very safe. However I though it was pleasant enough and enjoyable, a little caramel, easy going bitterness. fine. A6 A4 T7 P3 Ov13 3.3

Gravity cask @ The Salopian, Shrewsbury. Moderate bitterness, some mild lemon citrus and zest but nothing that dominates. Ok but could be better.
