Description
We are a York based family run brewery. Having been in (and out), and around the craft beer industry since 2013, we have long dreamt of having a brewery to call our own. In 2023, we decided it was time to either do something about it or stop talking about it, so here we are.

Starting on a low volume nanobrew kit, we create small batch beers which allows us to experiment, explore and develop beers that are full of flavour and don't compromise on quality for the sake of quantity.

Hazy yellow gold with a bubbly / frothy white head and a soft yeasty and fruity aroma. Spritzy with yeasty fruit bitterness, soft light malt, a touch herbal and a dry tart bitter finish.

hand pulled half pint in the Tiny Tavern, Lincoln on 29th November 2025. Pale golden body, white crust on top. Cascade hops doing their thing, and surprising well at 3.4% ABV. Citrusy with a grapefruit and fairly bitter feel.

Hand pulled half pint in the Tiny Tavern, Lincoln on 29th November 2025. Golden pour, clean and clear, white crown on top that hung around for a while. Citrus front with a piney undertone over a malty base; nice, easy going blend.

Keg at Craft Beer Co Covent Garden. Hazy mango gold. Thin foamy white head. Aroma has a vinous element, herbs, but is positively dank. Flavourwise it's similar. Herbs. A vinous bite. Some resinous bitterness. All through a dank filter. Skunky. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Soft-average-fizzy carbonation. Long dry somewhat astringent finish. Nice. I just wish I knew what dank meant.

The last Trig Point I encountered was at the top of Pendle Hill a couple of months ago. This Trig encounter proved very hoppy, but clean and easy in texture making it appealing, and a session ale for some. Fruitiest in aroma, but does transfer to taste somewhat too.
