Description
We are Roman Way Brewery, an experimental micro-brewery based at the Royal Ordnance Depot in Weedon, Northamptonshire.

We are called Roman Way Brewery because we are located close to Watling Street, the first Roman Road built in Britain. This link to our Roman past gives us inspiration for the names of all our brews.

Our mission is to provide great real ale! Whether you visit us directly and sample one of our onsite events at the tap room or alternatively you discover our beers in one of the many free houses that you will find across the Northants region, we hope you enjoy the experience.

All our beer is hand-crafted and brewed using traditional methods. We use the highest-quality ingredients to ensure we create the best pint we can – always made with love, pride and care.

Dan, Phil & Jack

Cask at Garibaldi Hotel, Northampton. Pours clear pale gold with a white cap. Aroma: grains, citrus, light grapefruit, grassy hints. Taste: light to moderate sweet with light bitterness. Light to medium body with soft carbonation. Pretty decent for what is often a boring style.

500ml bottle from MK Biergarten, Wolverton. Pours clear pale to mid gold with a slim white cap. Aroma: bread, butter light citrus. Taste: light sweet & bitter, soft mouthfeel, buttery. Light to medium body with light carbonation. I'm aware that lager styles often have little buttery notes here and there but that feature is overdone here I think.

Hand-pulled pint in the Railway Tavern, Newport Shropshire on 3rd February 2023. Light golden body, white head. Basic quaffing Pale Ale with subtle flavours, it's a pleasant blend of traditional hops and malts but will not blow anyone's socks off.
