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!

Bottle picked up from the brewpub a few years back. An oily dirty brown coloured pour with a reluctant tan head. Aroma is big dirty peat smoke, tangy apple, little farty, sticky brown sugars. Flavour is composed of sticky sweet brown sugars, toffee, raspberry, woody tannin, little oxidised, boozy oak, cakey malts. Palate is sweet and oily, flabby, lowish carbonation. Lingering peat smoked whisky. Bit if a hit mess.
