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.

Cask @ King's Head, Huddersfield. Dark red with a creamy head. It's a fine session textured ale with lightly sweetened light malts and a lowish bitterness. Pleasant.

Cask. Old Crown, Handsworth, Sheffield. Clear, copper colour. Sparkler induced, creamy, off white head. Nose has nutty malts. Some dried fruit. Bit of a yeasty twang. Taste is mostly dry, and light, vine fruit bitter. Light body. Vinous finish. Well, it’s completely bland as you’d expect from a Bradfield beer, but it’s not badly brewed. It’s just brown.

On cask at Steel City Beer Festival - Hazy pink body with a good looking top. Nose is maraschino cherries and faint hints of biscuit malts. Taste is meh. Fake cherry taste. Like Farmers Blonde with added syrup.
