Description
Elgood & Sons is a family-owned brewing company situated in the heart of ‘Fen’ country in Cambridgeshire, England. Home to Elgood’s is the North Brink Brewery which was established in 1795, and was one of the first classic Georgian Breweries to be built outside London.
In 1878 it came under the control of the Elgood family, and so it remains today, with the fifth generation of the Elgood family now coming through to run the business, maintain the traditions, and push the company boldly forward into the 21st Century.

Third of pint in my local Spoons on Saturday 7th March 2026. Golden amber body, white crust. Decent enough brew with an orange citrus front from the Amarillo hops, slight malty biscuit centre with a good dry finish.

5/3/2026. Cask at wetherspoon’s beer festival. At the Bell Hotel, Norwich. This was served straight from cask. Pours okay. Aroma is hoppy, orange, biscuit, malt, grapefruit. Taste is bittersweet. Drying finish and a little sweet and clammy. Not bad.
