Description
Founded in 2020, Sureshot Brewing has been a long term project of James Campbell. Everyone with a bitter taste in their mouth knows James. A serial head brewer at some of Manchester’s most respected independent breweries, and pioneer of the best in new world styles and hops to the UK. J.C. has been instrumental in the development of new wave British brewing over the last decade (and then some).
But we're more than a CV, we believe beer is something that’s meant to be enjoyed. That's why we’re focusing on what we know people love: hoppy IPAs, clean lagers, and flavourful, easy-drinking pale ales. Now we're ready to get brewing and release our first beers in 2022.

Hazy gold with a bubbly white head and a fruit hop aroma. Soft and smooth up front, fruity with a little hop kick, mellow bitterness and a dryish finish.

There's a clock ticking for this robust, not quite black stout, with plenty of roasted character - the wine and cheese tasters take over this venue in 30 minutes. The hop additions in this one are noticeable, whilst rich chocolate is certainly a plus too in both aroma and taste.

Can from The Rusty Bucket, Eltham. Aromas of strawberry cheesecake, fudge, toffee. Flavours of the same, some sweet tobacco in there too. Sweet desserty finish Didn't think this odd combo would work but it's not bad at all.

Cask at Ebenezers, Crewe. Pours a cloudy pale straw with a medium sized foamy white head and excellent lacing. Virtually no aroma to start with but then citrus and mango suddenly come through. In the mouth it is sweet and creamy, but with a little underling sharpness. Flavour has malts, floral hops, melon and mango plus some tropical fruit later on. Sharpness lasts into the slightly dry finish. This is okay, but somewhat bland.
