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.

Hand-pulled half-pint in the Tap and Can, Shrewsbury on 11th August 2021. Mini haze to the amber body, steady white foaming head. Nice, easy going IPA without really stretching your senses too much. Orchard fruits in the nose and taste.

14/7/2021. Cask at the Dog & Partridge, on the A628 from Sheffield. Pours almost clear pale yellow gold with a creamy white head. Aroma of citrus, straw, lemon drops, banana and vanilla milk shake. Medium plus sweetness and light bitterness. Moderate body, light creamy texture, very soft carbonation. Not bad.

Bottle from Craft & Berry. Appearance - golden with gentle carbonation and a creamy white head . Nose - light caramel or honey. Taste - definitely honey this time, with caramel backing it up. It's very sweet. Palate - light to medium bodied, creamy texture. Still sweet on the finish, unfortunately. Overall - where's the hop bitterness?
