About
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.

Bottle from Glen Park Hotel, Ayr. Appearance - golden with a decent head. Nose - earthy and savoury. Kitchen smells? Then red fruits. Taste - caramel biscuits. Red fruits again. Palate - light tomedium bodied with a creamy yet crunchy texture and a long dry finish. Overall - yeah good ale. Not a golden ale. It’s a bitter.

Bottle from Glen Park Hotel, Ayr. Appearance - golden amber with a thin head that disappears quickly. Nose - orange and red fruit. Bit of hobnob biscuit. Big crystal malt influence. Taste - more orange fruit and biscuits. Palate - light to medium bodied with a creamy yet tangy texture and a finish that could be fresher. Overall - would prefer more bittering hops though it does have some interesting notes. It should be under Bitter style rather than Golden Ale in my opinion.

Cask. Clear, bright gold. Thick, dense, creamy, sticky, lasting, white head. Looks like the kind of beer my dad would rave about. Nose has soft, toffee malts. Light, old world, spicy hop. A bit buttery, but ok buttery, not bad buttery. Taste is soft sweet. Light body. Creamy mouthfeel. Some caramel on the finish.
