To brew the best beers possible requires the best brewery equipment available. Our 20 barrel brewery equipment was previously at the Canongate Brewery on the Royal Mile in Edinburgh’s historic Old Town. This was Scottish & Newcastle’s pilot brew house and as you would expect, was built to a very high specification. Indeed, it remains probably the best equipment of its size anywhere in the UK today. Our flexible Brewery with its special Lautering system allows us to brew between 3,000 and 17,000 pints per day and importantly ensures that we can maintain the highest quality and guarantee a regular supply of cask, keg and bottled beers to the drinkers of the North East and beyond.

[Cask at the Old Manor (JDW), Bracknell.] An amber pour with a loose off-white head; toffee banana aroma; drier than expected with an earthy bitterness and mashed banana taste; then a dry bready finish. Surprisingly fresh tasting.

Cask at the ledger building Canary wharf. A light hazed amber orange coloured pour with a lasting speckled head. Aroma is very sweet, brown banana, banana sweets, some brown sugars, bruised fruit. Palate is weak and grainy, little cloying,. Flavour is composed of semi sweet, light tangy, fizzy banana sweets, earthy grains, grass, bruised bananas. But rough round the edges.

Cask handpull at The County Hotel JDW Ashford. Clear mid brown colour lasting beige head toffee banana aroma. Some hop in the mouth dries it out. Toffee banana flavour in mouth. Some dryness on the finish. I mean a bit one dimensional. But it's OK I suppose. Bit of a gimmick. More Toffee than banana. Like banana Toffo sweets for those who were in the 80s

Amber gold with a bubbly/frothy white head. Definite slug of bananas on the nose, alongside some light malt. Smooth, tastes a little like banana bread with just a little spicy kick ahead of a dry toffee finish

[Cask at the Back of Beyond (JDW), Reading.] A reddish chestnut coloured pour with a tight beige head; silky smooth with a grainy taste; and a dry finish with a fresh hoppy bitterness. An unexceptional dark bitter.

Cask at the Playhouse Spoons, Colchester. Near clear gold beer, decent bubbly pale cream colour head. Nose is foam bananas! Light palate, mildly dry, decent fine carbonation. Flavour follows the nose with big foam bananas and some very mildly tart ripe citrus. A light and semi dry finish delivers more banana, getting a little estery. Bonkers! Novel, wouldn't want a pint.
