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 Picture House, Stafford. Pours “bitter brown” with amall white head and good lacing. Malts are the mainstay of the aroma, but there are hitns of raisins too. Malts again in the mouth, where the texture is slightly watery and somewhat sweet. Not much else there either. Finish is slightly bitter. This is just a bog standard bitter – but it’s OK.
