Description
The idea of having our own brewery has been in our heads since we launched our first beer, The Black Pot, but we really started thinking about it in the beginning of 2018.

Living in a small town near the Ceahlau mountain means fresh air, great views, many things to do (especially in summer) but there is not much social life. So, this was our first question: build a brewery in the area through which we make the decision to stay here or move to a big city where you have many more opportunities, give up on this idea / dream and continue life? You already know the answer… 😊

330ml bottle sophiesbeerstore.co.uk. Pitch black, very thin tan head. Oily palate. Aroma of seaweed, soy sauce, dark vinous fruits, dark chocolate. Body seems a little thin with soy sauce, seaweed, bitter dark chocolate, roasted malts with very faint plummy dark fruits emerging. Bitter linger on the finish. Not quite what I expected, and not really one I'd like to try again.
