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 golden yellow with a small white head and good lacing. Not much of an aroma – just some generic citrus. In the mouth it starts off crisp and light with tangerines and a hint of spices. However, this quickly becomes overwhelmed by citrus hops which then apply their usual horrid stickiness to the roof of my mouth ! Pretty yuck really.

Cask at Five Lamps, Derby. Pours golden yellow with a small white head. Malts and some hints of citrus in the aroma. In the mouth, floral hops are the first to grab attention, and there is a fair amount of bitterness. After a while some sweetness starts to show, along with citrus and hints of honey. This is a decent enough beer – I’m not sure about the “white IPA” categorisation though.
