3-5 Heathfield Industrial Estate, Heathfield Street, Elland, HX5 9AE, England
Description
Founded as ‘Eastwood and Sanders Fine Ales’ in 2002, after the amalgamation of The West Yorkshire Brewery and The Barge and Barrel Brewing Company, we renamed as Elland Brewery in 2006 and have been trading under that banner ever since.
We are proud to be a proper, independent, traditional micro-brewery. We’re a small team (currently ten and a half people!) and we’re involved in every aspect of running a busy brewery, we all get our hands dirty helping out in racking, delivering, filling the vans, cleaning, loading the spent grain for our local farmer Dickie to feed his cattle…you’d be surprised at what a normal day involves!

Clear amber beer. Softish and slighty dry palate. Rich butterscotch with a little hoppy fruit. Nice.

Cask, 6.5% as Paramount Porter. Sweet liquorice aroma, perhaps a hint of smoke. Almost black colour, hint of red. Creamy tan head. The flavour has a lot of sweet liquorice. I also get some roast barley, Guinness style. Distinct coffee aftertaste. Could have done with a little less alcohol IMO.

Cask at the Crosse Keys, JDW. Rich golden pour with a small, white head. Baked malts on the nose with grass and citrus hop. Flavor is nicely sweet, sugar and honey, light bread, quite bitter with citrus rind, weeds and heavy grass. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Finishes sweet at first with lasting hops on the tongue. Very dirty, grapefruit and earthy grass. Great beer.

Cask at the FFTMC beer festival, Oxford, 26.03.11 Pours a sparkling clear gold with a white head. Clean tasting in the mouth, really refreshing with a honey flourish and a bitter crisp citrus bite. Really decent beer not starkly different from many other nice crisp golden beers other than this has been done very well. A6 A5 T8 P4 Ov14 3.7
