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.

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

Bottle generously donated by my old mate Paul who probably got it from Lewisham Tescos. Cherry & strawberry jam nose. Cherry drops taste. Sweet with a light bitter edge.

500ml bottle from Waitrose, in Bath, England. Pours a crystal clear orange-bronze color with a thick beige head and excellent retention. Great lacing too. Light hoppy aroma. Mellow caramel malt flavor with very faint hoppy notes in the finish. Sweeter and more flavorful than any bitters I had on tap in England. A nice, mellow, flavorful, easy drinking beer. Medium body. Low carbonation. Low bitterness.
