Description
Ossett Brewery purchased the Fernandes Brewery and Pub in 2007. Proud of its heritage and under the watchful eye of head brewer Paul Spencer, Ossett Brewery has continued to brew many of the original beers, whilst also devising many new brews which have become firm favourites. Brewer, Steve Hutchinson, now brews around 90 different beers a year from the pale ‘Straw-Weight’ at 2.8% to impenetrable black, full bodied stouts, such as ‘Voodoo’ at 5.0%.

Cask stillage at the Solihull CAMRA festival 2014. Poured a crystal clear straw colour with a thin whispy white head. The aroma is light yeast, citrus, butter and some barnyard funk. The flavour is light bitter with a light citrus fruit, light caramel hop bitter palate and a moderate bitter finish. Light bodied with soft carbonation.

Half, cask at The Hop in York. Low white head blanketing the glassware. Close to clear, pale golden body. Fruity hops on the nose, semi-dry. Moderate flavours of grainy malts, fruity hops and mild spices. Bitterness of citrus shells to the finish. Medium to thin bodied. Fair enough (11.07.2014).
