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.

1st Sep 2019, hand-pulled half-pint in the lovely 'Wm Hawkes', Hull. So a cask 'Helles', not a common style to see as a 'Real Ale'. Poured a clear and clean gold, white topping. Crisp and refreshing, but like most Helles devoid of any strong aromas or tastes.
