Description
We are an independent craft brewer specialised in brewing lager. Born in London in 1995, we have since moved to Abbots Bromley in rural Staffordshire. Relocating has allowed us to use a better quality of water direct from our very own private source. The move also provided us with the space we need to recycle all our waste water on site via a natural reed bed system. All the beers we brew are naturally carbonated, unpasteurised and vegan friendly. Our brewing process blends the use of modern technology and sophisticated equipment with the care and dedication of our experienced team of "hands on" brewers to ensure all our beers are well balanced and consistent in quality.

Bottle. Morrisons. Clear, deep orange. Thick, foamy, lasting, off white head. Looks well. Nose us as expected. Lager malts and fruity hop. Notes of light caramel and ripe peach. Taste is fairly bitter, with some toffee sweetness. Clean mouthfeel. Rising, oily hop bitterness toward the end. Very decent.

33cl bottle from Morrisons, Aldershot. An amber pour with a trace of loose white head; nice hoppy aroma with some resin and orange fruit; big fruity orange taste with a sharp fresh pithy bitterness; and a lingering bitter orange finish. A rather good IPL.

Draft at Ship and Mitre. Clear pour. Fairly off flavor and aroma dominates. Buttery and grassy. Not much else can sneak through around the off and buttery flavors. Poor.
