Description
Beermats was founded in 2017 by 3 friends in a pub while drinking good, honest British beer – like most good ideas! This was when we decided what our brewing philosophy would be – easy drinking, great beer that’s not too out-there that everyone can enjoy, whether it be on a Summer’s day or by the fire during the cold of Winter.
With our core range of beers we think we have something to cover most people’s tastes supplemented by our seasonal specials which offer something different for people to explore.
The brewery itself is nestled in the rolling hills in the heart of Nottinghamshire in the small hamlet of Winkburn which contains the majestic Winkburn Hall. This overlooks our brewery on the old farm estate where based in a converted old cow shed sits the brewery which has fantastic views over the Nottinghamshire countryside and the picturesque Winkburn estate.
Quality of our product is something that we care passionately about and it is our care and attention to detail in the brewing process that make our beer quality what it is.
Like us I’m sure you’ll agree, Beermats and Beer go hand in hand.
Enjoy!

Cask at Standing Order, Derby. Pours a slightly hazy golden yellow with a small foamy off-white head and excellent lacing. The aroma is a mix of biscuits. Citrus and floral hops. In the mouth it varies between sweet and bitter (with a slight preference for the former) and a creamy texture. The flavour has floral hops, biscuits and hints of ginger and spice. After a while these are joined by traces of malts and grapefruit. Finish is dry and slightly spicy. This is decent.
