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.

Cask at the Wellington, Birmingham. Poured a clear straw colour with a bubbly white head. The aroma is light malt, light hop. The flavour is moderate bitter with a big citrus, floral hop palate and a lingering bitter finish. Medium to light bodied with soft carbonation. It has something going for it!

Growler from Turners, Abbeydale Road, Sheffield - Hazy yellow pour, thin white layer on top. Nose is flowery and fruity, lots of tropical stuff going on, plus citrus fruits. Taste is sharp at first, all the fruit coming through at once, leaving a long bittersweet finish. Very nice indeed.
