Description
In the quaint little village of Cromwell, in the heart of Nottinghamshire nestles our modest brewery. Run by husband and wife duo, Ken and Fran Munro, true connoisseurs in craft ale with a motto for quality over quantity, we brew the finest, most flavoursome ales every time. We keep our base recipe simple using the four traditional ingredients hops, malt, wheat and water and have won numerous awards since opening our doors in 2004.

We supply cask and bottled beers to pubs, farm shops and breweries up and down the country. Brewing 5 days a week, we have a varied selection of ales, whether it’s a blonde you prefer, citrussy pale ales, red or amber bitters right through to porters and stouts we have something for everyone.

Cask at Standing Order, Derby. Pours a slightly hazy golden yellow with a small off-white head and good lacing. Aroma is mainly floral hops. In the mouth it is sweet and juicy at the start, but bitter undertones gradually develop. Floral hops and citrus to the fore in the flavour, plus traces of caramel, corn and pine. Finish is quite bitter and slightly sticky. This is decent.
