Description
Shiny was established in 2012, as a small scale operation, brewing in Derby mainly for its brew pub. Now based in the beautiful village of Little Eaton, just outside of Derby. The brewery is based in the centre of the village and has a taproom which features all Shiny’s new beers and one off pilots. Our beer story began with untraditional highly hopped cask beer and now has evolved into brewing a range of cask, keg and cans, the ethos is still the same brew beers we love to drink which means lots of hops! All beers are unfined and a good number of our core range is certified Gluten Free.

Bottle from Shiny Brewery courtesy of dad, cheers dad!consumed at home Friday 3rd July 2015 Another Shiny beer that is lemony in colour with a white head a large frothy white head that soon departs, a dab of spice, it’s lovely. In the mouth this is tangy with a little sherbert. Fruity, the Junga hops are remarkably similar to the Nugget hops we’ve just had in the other Shiny ale. Soft in the mouth, a soft squidgy lemonyness. Very good. A7 A3 T8 P3 Ov15 3.6

Bottle from Shiny Brewery courtesy of dad, cheers dad!consumed at home Friday 3rd July 2015 Lemony in colour with a white head, huge at first but then droops to a film. Sweet and hoprrpy with a steady bitter bite, dry and a little rustiness across the roof of the mouth, There is a slight tart lemony cheesecake bite. It’s good, not great but good.

Cask. Shakespeares, Sheffield. Pale gold, with a light haze. Bubbly, lasting, white head. Big aroma of pineapple cube sweets. Lemon sherbet. Some blackcurrant. Taste is lip sticking sweet. Not much relief from it. Hint of bitterness pokes through later. Feels sticky. Finishes more sweet than bitter. Couldn’t get on with this one. Too sticky.

Cask at the Southampton Arms, London on 24th February 2015. Amber with laceless off-white shallow decaying foamtop. Rich hoppy aroma with cheesy yeasts. Tangy citric lemon and grapefruit hops in-mouth with savoury touches. Bitter lemon and grapefruit citrus end with residual grassiness. Light bodied with light, but textured mouthfeel.
