Description
Driven by a passion for a quality product, Parbold's first microbrewery.
Jonny likes nothing better than a decent pint! So much so, he built a brewery intending to capture flavours from his imagination. We like to think it’s ‘his passion’ that goes into making these cask conditioned ales so good. We’d love you to sample his magic.
…. And if you ever thought where did that name come from?
The Problem Child name originates from Parbold’s prodigal Rachel. Jonny’s wife and business partner. Born and bred in Parbold, she wandered afar as a Problem Child in her teens, now home, and brewing happily!

On cask at the Bow Bar. Appearance - golden to amber with a decent head. Nose - Seville Oranges Taste - burnt oranges and bitter pithy tang to follow. Palate - medium bodied with a tangy texture and a long dry finish. Overall - I found this a bit gnarly at first but stay with it and get rewared with its moreishness.
