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.

44cl can from Kaubamaja, Tallinn. Pours clear golden with a white head. Mild malty aroma with herbal and fruity notes. Moderate to medium sweet with medium to low flavour intensity and ditto bitterness. Mild and somewhat bland, but clean and fairly pleasant.

I’ve been trying to hunt this down and finally found it at the Iing’s Head in Poole. I can confirm that this is a solid ale if your ferret needs a drink.

Bottle from Auntie Suzanne, cheers! A bland but clean enough ale that can be justified for daytime drinking over Christmas.
