About
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 Travellers Rest, Apperknowle - Rich black body, thick lacing off white head, good solid look. Nose is rich chocolate, a sweet liquorice and coffee going on too. Mouthfeel is nearly cream, really thick and rounded, a sweet chocolate taste eased it down too. It went down too easy really, beer of the day!!!!

Cask at the Anchor Inn, Digbeth, Birmingham on 28th December 2013. Gold with white head and travelling lace. Tangy citrus, caramel and yeastiness in aroma. Mild grassiness, lemon and grapefruit citrus together with leafy herb in-mouth, tempered by sweetish malts. Rather sweet citric end. Light body and mouthfeel.

Cask @ Shoulder of Mutton, Hebden Bridge. Slightly hazed yellow coloured ale with a small creamy head. It’s full of tropical fruit character, more so in taste than aroma with a mild bitterness.

On cask at Uxbridge Arms, Chasetown - Pale amber, with a thin white head. A very drinkable session beer with a very biscuity nose, and aromas of tropical citrus. Bit of a thin mouthfeel, but very crisp and zesty tasting nonetheless.

Cask at Pig n Falcon, St Neots. Pours black with a wonderful little head. Faint but enticing aroma of grassy hop. Taste is surprisingly hoppy and bittersweet. Tastes a bit like a stout & a bit like a black IPA! Wicked! Sweet fruity finish and aftertaste is incredible.

Cask at MoCa, Matlock. Almost black. No head. Red fruit, dark malt, some vanilla. Taste is cocoa bitter, fruity dry. Tiny bit flat. Potentially a nice winter warmer.
