Description
Welbeck is one of the great traditional landed estates bordering Sherwood Forest. It is home to an artisan village, producing specialist foods and crafts in a beautiful rural setting.

General Manager and brewer, Claire Monk, established our microbrewery in 2011. It’s housed in a beautiful listed barn at the heart of this community, and has steadily grown in size to meet the demand for good local beer. We also have some fabulous neighbours in adjacent barns, including a coffee roaster, chocolatier and bakery. All our products can be found at the Welbeck Farm shop in the Welbeck Courtyard.

The two guiding principles which underpin our brewery are to produce the best quality beer in the market, and provide our customers with exemplary service every time. Our head brewer, James, brews 15,000 pints a week which we supply into pubs, restaurants and specialist bottle beer shops within a 35 mile radius.

Cask at Smithfield, Derby. Pours a bright golden amber with a small off-white head. The aroma has acstrong honey vibe – plus some fudge. Honey again in the mouth, along with a good dose of floral hops and a creamy texture. There’s an overall sweetness, but with some bitter undercurrents to keep things interesting. Later there are hints of butterscotch, nuts and autumn fruits. Finish is fruity and slightly bitter. This is rather nice.
