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 Bird in Hand, Stafford. Pours a golden yellow with a small foamy off-white head and good lacing. Aroma is just a vague hint of oranges. In the mouth it has a creamy texture and is slightly sweet. Flavours are mainly malts, grains and crusty bread rolls. Later on hoppy bitterness starts to appear and it is this which dominates the dry finish. It’s OK, if a little bland.
