Description
Since changing our name from Topsham & Exminster Brewery in 2008, we have expanded ever more rapidly. We now have a fantastic site in Cowley Bridge Road where we have a retail shop and Tap-Room Bar. The Tap-Room is open every Thursday evening from 5pm to 11pm. Curry nights. Every last-Friday of the month the Tap room opens as normal, but we offer a curry, prepared and served by ARC Events. You don’t have to eat, just enjoy a drink, but the curries are great – takeaways available too.

(Cask at Lyric, Soho, London, 25 Nov 2024) Reddish amber colour with foamy, beige head. Malty, hoppy nose with rye bread, orange peel and blood orange. Malty taste with notes of caramel, chocolate, dark bread, dried fruit and a mild earthy, citric bitterness. Medium body, with a touch of sweetness. Well balanced bitter. Nice one.

Bottle from LCB. BBE in 8 months. Clear gold with small white wispy head. Aroma is bready and occasional biscuit noted malt with a citric cut through and light fusty character. Taste of grains, biscuit, wood with a floral hop that has an edge of citrus and resin. Light to medium bodied, semi-crisp zing, reasonable bitterness. Nothing complex but nice finish.
