About
There's a method in Mr Winter's madness. From the brew to the bottle, we carefully consider every element of our range to give you a taste of the unexpected.

With IPAs, golden ales and stouts in our range, we have a beer for every palate. From light and fruity, to dark and nutty, each one combines high-quality hops with barely, water and yeast to create a unique, full-bodied flavour.

Started in September 2001 by Dave Winter, as Winter’s Brewery. In early 2020, the brewery changed it's branding to the current MrWinter’s.

Deep golden color. Malty sweetness and apricots in the nose. Fairly sweet but not that interesting. Ok.

Gravity poured pint at the 2013 CAMRA AGM in Norwich on 20 Apr. An off-white foaming head sat on top of this good looking dark brew, deep ruby red when held to a light source, otherwise a very dark brown colour. Dark fruits and malty molasses blend together nicely to give this beer a pleasant aroma and taste. Not the heaviest bodied stout about, but this was fine and suited the flavours and alcohol level just right: a well make and tasty brew.
