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.

Handpull cask at the Last Plantagenet, Leicester. Dark brown, slightly translucent with a big khaki head. Malty aroma with some forest floor, toast, some honey. Taste is slightly more subtle with the sweetness giving way to bitter hop notes in the finish. Suggestions of liquorice and stone fruit in the aftertaste. A very decent strong bitter.

Sun Inn fest. Kelvedon. Cask. Almost clear deepish gold beer, a few white bubbles. Light dry palate, reasonable fine carbonation. Smooth malts provide modest sweetness. Reasonable citric hop, more on the citric peel side. Trace of ripe lemon. Mild spice into a fairly dry and mildly bitter finish. It's fine but Azacca deserves more.

Cask half-pint, hand-pulled at the 44th Telford Beer & Drinks Festival at The Crown Inn, Oakengates on 5th May 2018. Black bodied, tanned head. This is a semi-sweet tasting Porter, but I couldn't find many plum esters or flavours within it. Liked the beer though.
