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 GBBF London Earl’s Court, 4 Aug 2010) Golden colour with frothy, white head. Fruity, hoppy nose with notes of citrus, apricots, grass and elderflowers. Fruity, hoppy taste with citrus, pineapple and grassy hops. Rather light body, balanced sweetness. Refreshing hop character. Possibly a bit thin, but refreshing.

Cask. Clear yellow with a white head. Very fresh citrus notes in the nose - even grapefruit. Ah, now I see - Nelson Sauvin, yummy. Light-bodied, rather flat, fruity alright but completely dominated by the fresh aroma hops leaving a slight astringency. 220110
