Description
Over a decade of unpleasant commuting into London and a love of homebrewing lead to the Potton Brewing Co being established in late 2017, with our first beers hitting the local pubs the following spring.

Our beers are made from only the finest ingredients and no corners are cut in order to save a few pennies. We produce a range of different beers, from the traditional to the more modern, with the occasional seasonal or special.

Our beer is available to the pub trade, shops and public in cask and bottle.

1/5/2020. Bottle bought at the brewery. Pours dark amber / brown with a creamy off-white to beige head. Nice looking pour. Aroma is malty, nutty, light chocolate, with some overripe and stewed fruits. Taste has a light fruity sourness, moderate sweetness and light bitterness. Average carbonation, not much body to it. Grew on me.
