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.

440ml can from Tesco Extra in Chesterfield - clear gold body, thin white head. Overwhelming peach notes with this, some mangoes with a little sharp fruity tang from the hops. Very enjoyable and gone in 60 seconds.

Lovely clear amber with a tan head. Toasted malt, bright fruity notes, a bit of spicy cracked pepper. Well-balanced. Medium bodied. Finish has more of the same. Drinks real nicely.

440ml can bought at Vinmonopolet Langnes. Looks great in the glass with its deep copper coloured body, beige head, and crocheted lacing on the glassware. Subdued aromas of slightly roasted malts, distant hints of ripe fruits. Rather unbalanced flavours of dark bread, caramel, liquorice, and ripe lemon. Woody. Mild roasted ending. Strange kind of black IPA. Drinkable. (Tromsø, 04.07.2025).
