About
Since 1985, we have been producing the very best cask, keg and bottled beers, using the finest ingredients, while at the same time supporting the Great British institution that is fondly known as the 'pub'.
Our reputation for consistent excellence in product quality and customer service is the reason our beers are served in more than 1,200 pubs and bars throughout the West Midlands and South Wales. In fact, we've gone from a humbling beginning of producing approximately 10 brewers' barrels a week to an average of 800 barrels per week - that's more than 12 million pints per year!

Cask at Goose, Wolverhampton. Pours “bitter brown” with a small foamy off-white head and good lacing. Not much of an aroma – just hints of berry fruits and malts. In the mouth it is quite bitter with leafy texture. Flavour is more pronounced with traditional hops, malts, biscuits and red berries. Hints of honey and leaves come lated leading to a slightly fruity finish. This is a decent traditional bitter.

Dark brown with a thick, initially unpleasant-looking creamy head. A delicate aroma, slightly burnt toast, with notes of licorice, cocoa, and coffee. The body is light to medium, becoming flat after foaming, with an interesting earthy, herbal bitterness. The initial impressions are positive, with roasted notes, coffee, chocolate, and a slight acidity, followed by a sudden emptiness, a lighter body, and only the finish is brimming with flavor.
