Description
Based on a busy working farm in the picturesque village of Bradfield in the Peak District, Bradfield Brewery have gone from milking 100 cows a day to brewing over 100,000 pints of beer a week! The brewery sprung to life with completion of its first Brew on 26th April 2005 and the brews have carried on flowing ever since.

Trivia: As the family had enjoyed 2 generations of farming at Watt House Farm and not wanting the cows to feel left out, some of the beers are named after breeds of cattle.

440ml can from Mitchell Wines Meadowhead - Picture perfect black body with a lasting creamy top. Silky mouthfeel does most of the lifting, dry chocolate notes along with a tad of roasted malts, milky coffee sweetness with a short bitter finish.

Cask at Ye Olde White Hart, Hull. Opaque not quite dark brown. Foamy off-white head. Aroma has light malts and berries. Flavourwise it has sour berries and a hint of malts. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Soft-average carbonation. Long dry somewhat astringent finish. Boring.

Pint of cask in the newly reopened village pub before lunch on Sunday. Good pour and looked brilliant in the glass. Not much nose. A typical easy drinking bitter. Very light malt and bitter hops. You could happily drink this all night. And that is the point. It's a beer for long afternoons or nights in the pub.

330ml bottle from Morrisons - jet black body with a short lasting off-white head. Sweet vanilla nose, creamy vanilla takes the sharpness of the roasted notes, slightly dusty cocoa vibe at the end.
