Steel City Brewing
Client Brewer in Sheffield, South Yorkshire, England 🏴

When we started we were (and still are) huge fans of hops and there just weren't enough brewers in the UK using them, even though that sounds ridiculous in today's beer world. So, rather than moaning into our beer, we thought we'd do something about it and brew some of our own! Over time as the beer scene evolved, there was less need for our style of hoppy beers since everyone was brewing with them so we evolved too and widened our style portfolio.

Clear golden, white head. Wine in the aroma and the flavour is SUPER dry up front, but it does mellow out a bit as more wine comes through, with some light hop and citrus.

On tap at Bottles & Books, Bristol 5/11/2018. Near black in colour with a thin, beige, head. Rich toasty malts, some vanilla sweetness, red berries, plain chocolate and a rich, slightly vinous, finish. Excellent.

Bottle. Beer Central, Sheffield. 6 months out of date. (Sorry Dave!). Deep, chestnut brown. Light haze. Slim ring of tan. Nose has unripe raspberry. Vine fruit. Dark chocolate. Bit of a Fry’s fruit chocolate bar thing happening. Not getting any coconut. Taste is vinous and lightly tart. Hint of dark chocolate sweetness. Light body. Fairly smooth. More of the tartness. Low carbonation. Tangy and vinous finish. Considering how long this has lurked in the fridge, it’s pretty decent.
