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. 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

Gravity cask at the Duke of Wellington on 30 July 2010. Clear gold with grey-white thin off white foam, and almost no lacing. Fruity and hoppy aromas with touch of yeast. Main kick is grassy with a peppery piquancy, and I found the finish to be on the short side with herbiness, fruit and a touch of ginger. Smooth velvety, just slightly oily, texture. Rather pleasant, was just a touch on the warm side in the pub.
