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.

Growler. Turner’s Craft Beer, Sheffield. Hazy, old gold... go, on. I’ll agree with this. Mine had a thicker head, good solid rounded body, silky mouthfeel. Nose is sweet stoned fruit, not sure if it is nectarine I’m getting, plums and maybe peach. Taste is a great bittersweet combo of tropical fruits that leaves a long and bitter finish, with the strength of this well hidden. Liked this a lot... nice shop too.

Tried at the Threekingham beer festival 2015. Golden colour with a thin white head. Aroma is fruity with spice taste was a touch too sweet for me.

Growler. Turner’s Craft Beer, Sheffield. Hazy, old gold. Thin, dense, lasting, lacing, white head. Looks good. Aroma is peachy, but at the peach stone, earthy end of the peachy spectrum. There’s some pear to this. Some light herbal notes, too. The malt comes across as honeyed, and toasty. Taste is light bitter, with some of the honeyed sweetness, in the background. Soft, airy, lightly chewy palate. Finishes long, light bitter. Some of the sweetness hangs on. Pretty rounded. Easy drinking. Nice one.

Tap. Devonshire Cat, Sheffield. Hazy, copper colour. Thin, bubbly, off white head. Jammy, toffee malts. Some caramelised orange hop. Some herb. Taste is light bitter. Palate is a tad watery. Lots of carbonation doesn’t help disguise it. Finishes light sweet, and short bitter. Should be better, I reckon.

Cask-conditioned at the Seven Stars, Bristol 7/5/2015. Pale gold in colour, with a decent, white, head. Grapefruit and tangerines, crisp malts, grassy hops and a dry finish. Very good.

Keg @ Jacob’s Beer House, Bradford. Golden with a creamy head. Tropical fruit hopped in both its nose and taste. Doesn’t feel unfiltered.

Cask @ Old Gate, Hebden Bridge. Almost black with a creamy off-white head. Has plenty of dark roasted malts throughout its character, although no real chocolate to speak of with more of a coffee finish to its flavour.
