He consolidated the scattered trademarks and found possibly the only remaining ledger containing the authentic recipes.
The revived company commenced test brewing in 2020, staying as close as possible to the original recipes.
Keeping up the Allsopp’s tradition of launching into the teeth of a storm.

Can bought at Utobeer, Borough. Aroma is sweet - citrus and dough. Hazy gold. Foamy white head disappears almost entirely. Sour citrus followed by caramel and dought malts. However it's the sourness that is to the fore throughout. Light-medium bodied l. Slick. Average-fizzy carbonation. Long dry astringent finish. It's fine.

Handpull cask at the Salmon, Leicester. Pours a beautiful mid- to dark gold and clear with a full off-white head. Takes ages to settle. Nice. Low aroma, a little bit of woody spice and light citrus. Surprisingly sweet taste, lots of bubblegum. Not what I was expecting. Loads of yeasty bread going toward the finish with light sourness at the end. Light carbonation on a thin to medium body. Impressive.

1/3 pint, gravicask, shared with Finn at GBBF Winter '23. Clear brownish body, dotted spots on the glass from a covering beige head. Invitng brown malty aromas, scent of dried fruit. Quite delightful malty flavours, grain and caramel, offset by moments of leafy hop bitterness towards the finish. Well bodied. Like it. (Burton Upon Trent, 16.02.2023).

1/3 pint, gravicask, shared with Finn at GBBF Winter '23. Clear dark amber body, film-type layer, dotted spots on the glass. Malt-fruity smell, herbal hops and mid-sweet malts. Caramel-fruity flavours, earth and dough to it. Mid-dry ending, dough fruity aftertaste. Satisfying (Burton Upon Trent, 16.02.2023).
