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 @ Mr Foley's, Leeds. Deeper golden with a small head. Ginger is prevalent in its taste and hopped aroma, and it's not overbearing.

Cask. Fat Cat, Sheffield. I’ve done it again and called in the house of terminal blandness. I’ll learn, one day. Anyway. Hazed, pale, dirty gold. Creamy, thick, white head. Nose has wet cardboard. Tastes the same. Astringent bitterness throughout. Crap.

Taste is dry hoppy, minimally strawy, biscuity pale malty basis, fruity hints of lemon and lime; light body, slightly watery. Quaffable and refreshing.
