Description
First brewed in August 2011 using the site previously used by Archers The Brewers Ltd. The name The Weighbridge Brewhouse Limited was used until, following a takeover in mid-2019, the name changed to the current version. Brewing ceased in early 2021.

Note - no beers have been entered on Brewver or the late Rate Beer under the Brightbeer name. Therefore all beers listed here are Weighbridge beers.

Nothing to really shout about.
Clear dark golden color with a thick off white head. Ok lacing. Moderate intensity in the aroma. Medium (-) body and a soft carbonation. Ok balance between sweetness and bitterness. Caramel malty, some fruity notes, grassy/herbal hoppy flavor. Mild stuff.

Cask-conditioned, on gravity, at the Tuckerโ€™s Maltings Beer Festival, 15/4/2016. Copper in colour, with a decent, off-white, head. Aroma of chocolate and red berries, with some brown sugar. Easy drinking, with flavours of biscuity malts and sweet choclate, leading to a soft finish. Good.

Cask on gravity at Swindon Beer Festival, 22/10/2015. Amber in colour, with a slight, off-white, head. Sweetish bitter, with some hedgerow fruits, hint of citrus, trace of toastiness and short, bitter, finish. Fine.
