Description
It all started in a shed, no joke! Ian, started home brewing in his garden shed, building recipes inspired by his loved beers. We loved it, our mates loved it, the shed was bursting at the seams, it was time to move to bigger premises. In 2013 Brick was born, and we started building a brewery in a railway arch behind Peckham Rye station, SE London.

Cock Tavern. Cask. Hazy deep amber beer, tidy pale cream coloured head. Palate is light and semi dry, mild fine carbonation. Thin malts with even thinner malt cream. Whisper of smoke. Orangey hops, subtle tangerine underneath. Mild red berry fruits. Light spice. Dry finish with a smoky bitter linger. Interesting! A grower.

Cock Tavern. Cask. Almost clear amber beer, small off white head. Palte is light and dry, modest carbonation. Fresh malts. Twangy bitterness relieved by a little orange marmalade. Light dry finish. Fairly strong bitter linger. Not bad but pretty dry.

Bottle @ Chriso May 14 tasting. Pours like cloudy morning piss, yeasty lemon aroma. Taste is a little weak and lacklustre, some spice, coriander and lemon but ultimately a bit thin on the ground.

Bottle picked up at the brewery. It pours hazy pale golden with a small white head. The nose is soft, sweet, doughy and coriander. The taste is white bread, toast, grainy, herbal, underlying sweetness, bread & butter pudding and sweet apple with a dry finish. Light-medium body and fine carbonation. Not a whole lot to it. Soft and easy-going anyhow.

Keg at the brewery. It pours hazy red-amber with a small white head. The nose is rich, juicy, pink grapefruit, orange peel, pine and varnish. The taste is bitter, pine, grapefruit, varnish, lemon peel, pepper, red berry, touch of caramel and brown bread with a dry, bitter finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Crisp, bitter and fruity. High drinkability. Really rather great.

Cask at the Reading beer festival. Crisp if a little cardboardy at first. Some autumn leaf comes through, along with some orange. Growing smokiness in the pleasing finisg. I like this.

Keg at Brick. It pours hazy orange with a thick white head. The nose is orange squash, tangerine, sherbet, earth, dough and marmalade. The taste is bitter, pine, earth, grapefruit, orange peel, resin, hop astringency, dough and light alcohol with a bitter finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Good deal of bitterness. Pretty tasty, but not as refined or as drinkable as Sir Thomas Gardyner. Solid though.
