Description
An independent brewery founded in 1996 and employee owned since 2024, we like to think that we blend creativity and innovation with heritage and tradition, reflecting these values across our beers. Our house style could typically be described as pale and hoppy, but that’s not all we can do! As the beer world has evolved so have we, covering a wide range of styles and continually pushing the boundaries of what we can create.

On cask at the Guildford Arms. Appearance - opaque black with a lovely fawn head. Nose - dark berry fruits, liquorice and charcoal. Taste - liquorice, black cherry, plums. Light smoke. Very complex. Palate - medium to full bodied with a dry crunchy texture and a long dry crunchy finish. Overall - a lovely complex beer. A bit gnarly but lovely.

Keg @ the Dog & Doublet, Wolverhampton just before watching Derren Brown. Pours gold, with a light haze, white head. Aroma is citrussy. Taste is decently fruity, perhaps a bit gassy, but plenty of tropical elements to go on. Nice.

Leeds Beer Festival 2016. Deep hazed amber. It’s not really spicy, but the black pepper does provide some mild flavour in this respect.
