Description
Producing beer using left over bread rather than fresh barley.

We work in partnership with exceptional breweries, using their brewery but under our own license and using our own ingredients and recipes, and brewed by our in-house brewer, Stuart.

Moved to own brewery in Milton Keynes, dur8ng 2024.

In the UK, our beers are brewed at SEB in Broadstairs.

We've previously worked with Hepworth Brewery in Sussex, Wold Top Brewery and Hambleton Ales in Yorkshire, and with Hackney Brewery in London. Each time we've moved, it's been to allow us to scale up production.

Bottle at home, 26/08/17. Clear golden with an off white head that soon collapses to a swirl. Nose is pale malts, light lemon and lime, cereals, stale bread. Taste comprises faint citric peel, straw, grains, pale malts, light paper. Medium bodied, rather flat and under carbonated, semi drying close with light bitterness. Mediocre affair .... didn’t even get a refreshing feel with this one.

Wife from whole foods: pours lightly hazy gold with a white head. Aroma is bready with some cotrusy hops in there. Taste is lightly fruity. Bready. Low bitterness. Mild and easy.

14th July 2017, random tasting session at home with myself. 330ml bottle: BB Mar 2018, wasn’t sure what to pour it into, so choose a Duvel glass. Clean and clear golden body, decent white head. Would I have picked up the bready aroma and taste if I didn’t know what this beer was about? I doubt it. Had to open a packet of Pork Scratchings to help finish the 330ml bottle: at least I have supported a charity this year. Scored objectively (and kindly).
