Description
The Traditional Black Country Victorian tower brewery and public house was bought at auction in 1921 by Sarah Hughes.

Brewing home-brewed ales until 1957 when the brewery closed. After 30 years lapse the grandson John Hughes lovingly restored the brewery in 1987, keeping the traditional art of brewing alive.

Cask at the King’s Head, Bridgnorth. Mid-gold with a tight white head. Pixy Stix aroma with a hint of coriander and a bit of sulphur. Taste feels more focused: sweet with a decidedly bitter edge. Chalky mouthfeel. Bittersweet finish. What’s the surprise? Seems like a fairly standard beer to me, albeit a well-executed one.

Cask at the Wellington, Birmingham. Poured a crystal clear straw colour with a bubbly white head. The aroma is citrus, woody resin hop, The flavour is moderate bitter with a light yeast, malt hop bitter palate and a lingering bitter finish. Medium to light bodied with soft carbonation. A superb session ale.

At the brewpub, Sedgley 22/11/2014. Golden with a slight, white, head. Easy drinking beer, with a hint if citrus fruit, crisp malts and decent, bitter finish. Fine.
