Description
Box Social Brewing was established in 2015 by father and son duo Steve and Ross Holland. The brewery's aim is to create new and exciting beers to get people talking to each other and question their perception of beer.

After a long time working out of Steve's garage, brewing beer really just for ourselves, we decided to take the plunge and set up shop in a small industrial estate in Newburn on a 6 Barrel kit. We built a small tasting room on site so people could come and taste the freshest beer possible and began working on our beer range. Four years later, we were selling out of beer faster than we could make it and decided we had to take the next step.

We moved into our new 15 Barrel brewery in February 2019. This has allowed us to create not only better beer, but more of it!

Caña en el lúpulo feroz Oviedo 14..07.. 2019. Color amarillento tostado turbio con espuma blanca que desaparece al poco tiempo casi por completo. Sabores maltosos y dulces maltosos y frutales tropicales bastante notables desde el principio. Ligeras lactosa y meloso, especiados. Cuerpo medio con bastante sabor, más menos fino buena densidad y sensación alcohólica desde el principio. Bastante buena para repetir.
