Description
Note to Brewver members:-
The majority of beers have historically been released as 'Canterbury - XYZ' so should appear in the beer listings without the brewery name.
There is also a range of beers, usually only available at the brewpub itself and smaller batch, released as 'Foundry - XYZ'. These beers therefore appear with the Foundry name first in the beer listings.
Canterbury Brewers is a traditional microbrewery and the only one based within the city walls of Canterbury. We produce a range of modern and fresh cask-conditioned ales using only the finest quality floor-malted barley, hops and yeast available. With our distinctive recipes and our beautiful new brewery situated on Whitehorse Lane, we aim to add something different to the ever-growing and vibrant micro-brew scene in Kent. The Foundry Brewery, which opened in June 2011, is in sight of Canterbury Cathedral and just off the high street, and includes a restaurant, bar and an eight-barrel brewery. Brewery tours and tastings run regularly, and our restaurant can be booked for special events and functions - just get in touch!

Clear orange beer, creamy dense irregular yellowish to beige head, very stable, adhesive, leaving a nice lacing in the glass. Aroma: pretty cheesy, sweaty feet, sweet peaches, candy, some strawberry jam. MF: no carbon, medium body. Taste: cheesy start, pretty darn bitter, floral, bit malty, some caramel, sweetish touch. Aftertaste: more sweaty feet, pretty bitter, bit metallic, malty, grains, dry finish.

Bottle – pours a dark brown black colour with a medium sized tan head. Aroma is roasted malt, chocolate, dark fruit and vanilla. A moderately sweet taste, roasted malt, chocolate, burnt grain and dark fruit flavours. A moderately lasting bitter finish. Full bodied, flat carbonation and oily texture.

Not the green hop version. Cask at the Foundry. Clear amber beer, small pale tan head. Smooth and fairly dry palate, modest fine carbonation. Dry malts, not that sweet. A little rye tang if you look for it. Floral bitterness and a touch of marmalade. It's okay.

Canterbury Foundry. Cask. Clear gold beer, good white head. Palate is light, dry and finely crisp. Light malts, some sweetness, trace of honey. Mellow orange hops. Mild hop spice. Dry finish. Not that hoppy but fine.

Canterbury Foundry. Cask. Clear gold beer, small white head. Light dry and finely crisp palate. Dry malts, some mild esters. Dry green hop bitterness. Dry finish with the bitterness becoming harsh. Bloody bitter saison!

Somewhere in Canterbury, presumaby cask! Light haze on this reddish amber beer, small pale cream colour head. Light and semi dry palate, decent fine carbonation. Mild floralness. Decent strawberry, some jam and strawberry pips. A mild bitterness on the finish. Amusing.

bottle from the brewpub. Deep black, small off-white head. Vanilla aroma. Full-bodied, lots of chocolate and vanilla, some coffee and shy earthy hopy in the finish. Smooth and velvety carbonation. Delicious.

tap @ the brewpub in Canterbury. Pale straw-coloured with white head. Kölsch yeast but a lager? Nevertheless, quite fruity and pleasant, herbal-fruity hops on a decent malty base. Light-bodied and refreshing. Better than most of the German Kölschs I have tried.
