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: hand-pulled pint in Ye Olde Fighting Cocks, Oakengates Shropshire on 8th Oct 2015. This Secret Wife was a blonde with a white head. She had a citrus nose and a sour/bitter nature throughout. Not for me, but others may take to her.

On cask at Travelers, Apperknowle - Pale golden clear body, thick lacing white head. Nose is gentle citrus, a bit grassy with a soft floral hop characteristic. Taste is sweet lemons, a bit of cereal, and once again floral. Fairly decent mouthfeel makes it overall a refreshing pint.
