Description
Black Storm, where passion and artistry meet to create unforgettable craft beer experiences. Our journey kicked off with late-night brewing sessions and hard work to meet our dream of delivering the finest, premium craft beers that will captivate your taste buds and elevate your beer-drinking experience, all crafted and brewed in the North east of England.

Black Storm started in late 2017. The beers were initially contract brewed at Hadrian Border Brewery. In Spring 2019 the former site of Blackhill Brewery was purchased located at Unit 14 Stella Gill Industrial Estate, Pelton Fell and started brewing at it. Relocated in early 2022 to their current site. During Spring 2023 new management took over the brewey and started activities as Black Storm Beers. Same beers, same brewers, NEW management

Cask @ Trades Club, Hebden Bridge. Golden with a creamy head. It's fuller-bodied and quite crisp tasting, certainly clean tasting with an associated hoppy IPA dryness for this style.

Handpull cask at the Salmon, Leicester. Dark brown with a bit of translucency (not much though). A large creamy beige head. Sumptuous aroma of roast malt, oak, a coal fire. There's an underlying sweetness to the taste despite the intensity of the roast malt. Too-strong coffee, plum and smoked meats in the aftertaste. And a wonderful light fizz coming from the natural carbonation. An incredible cask porter.

Bottle thanks to allmyvinyl. Appearance - amber with a slight haze. Thin lacing. Nose - toffee, brown bread. Pumpernickel. Taste - honey and light toffee. Some biscuit and brown bread. Palate - close to medium bodied, some biscuit bitterness. Overall - it's a real beer after all that fruit pish we've just had.

21/7/2018. Can from CentrAle, Newcastle. Pours bright golden amber with a lasting creamy white head. Aroma of hops, tropical fruit, fruity custard sweets, vanilla, malt, and citrus. Medium plus sweetness, moderate bitterness. Moderate body, quite creamy texture, average carbonation. Enjoyable beer, reminded me of durian to taste but without the stink, certainly an exotic one.
