Description
The process of brewing beer hasn’t changed much since we started back in 1777. And neither has our unique approach to crafting characterful beer. But our equipment most certainly has.
Our state-of-the-art, independent, family-owned brewery now stands proudly alongside our old brewery on the banks of the River Stour in Blandford, Dorset. Using the finest ingredients and over 240 years of expertise, our brewers create beer that brims with flavour.

Cask at the Peacock Farm, Bracknell. Reddish brown with a thin white head; fruity malt aroma; rather boring fruity malt flavour, with some bitterness to finish.

Bottle. Amber brown with good head. Hop aroma with hint of toffee. Light body and carbonation. Malt and caramel flavour shifting to hoppy bitterness and bread. Lovely simple beer.

Bottle. Amber, little head. Aroma of peach, passion fruit, pineapple. Medium body with plentiful fizzy carbonation. Very fruity, especially peaches, with some nice hoppy bitterness in finish. Very unusual but works really well.

Bottle. Poured clear golden amber with beige head. Fruity aroma. Light body with plenty of carbonation. Fruity (pears?) malty foretaste with mildy bitter hoppy finish. There is an interesting tingle or tang, perhaps from the nettles, but a little metalic to my taste. Quite refreshing and pleasant.

(can) faint aroma, dark fruit i think. looks clear and yellow, very small head. Flavor surprisingly good. nice mix of bitter and fruits, nice bitter aftertaste. A watery feeling to it all, but nice. Good session beer. perhaps a bit too watery.

Bottle, courtesy of Cicely. This was dreadful and barely finishable. Bland, watery and thin. Drain pour material. Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall may know a thing or two about food, but this shows he knows very little about what good beer tastes like. Crap.

Bottled at Ølfestival, Århus, 2008. A golden beer with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of citrus and flowers. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of lemon, leading to a dry bitter finish.
