Established in 2015
In 2023-2024, we underwent a huge brewery expansion to increase the amount of beer we can produce, as well as improving quality and efficiency.
Our brewhouse is the first of it’s kind in the UK & Europe incorporating 4 new 6000L fermenting vessels, bringing our total to a 40,000L capacity. We have a 3-vessel fully automated brewhouse consisting of a mash conversion vessel, a lauter tun and a kettle whirlpool vessel. These three parts, in their own special ways, improve our brewing methods and increase efficiency.

On cask at Ryries. Appearance - golden and clear. Proportionate white head. Nose - orange, mango and pink grapefruit. Taste - big pineapple and coconut those time, that'll be the Sabro! Palate - light to medium bodied, creamy middle and a zesty dry finish with a good taper. Overall - the nose was Cashmere and the Sabro was on the palate.

Can from Westhill Service Station. It pours hazy pineapple yellow with a big, fluffy white head. The aroma is sweet, quite juicy, apricot, nectarine, melon, gummy bears, white grape juice and powdered sugar. The taste is crisp, dry, snappy, firm bitterness which lingers, peppery spice, white peach, nectarine, apricot, candied lemon, touch green, damp green vibes, juicy melon and some floury bread with a drying, slightly chalky finish. Average body and moderate+ fluffy carbonation. An interesting number for sure. Edges a bit too close to sweetness it places, but I like it anyhow.

Draft at Lil’s Taproom, Singapore. Poured a murky golden orange colour with a mostly lasting frothy white head. The aroma is bretty yeast, light hops. The flavour is light sour, with a fresh, crisp, malt, dry bretty yeast, light citrus woody hop palate. Medium bodied with average to soft carbonation. Nicely balanced with the Brett. Refreshing and not overly sour.

[June 2023] Very slightly hazy straw colour with a bubbly white head and a grassy aroma. Nice and fresh, a little fruity, a little grassy with crisp bitterness finishing things off

Can from Appellation Wines. Appearance - light, cloudy orange with a snow white, nicely proportioned head. Nose - dried apricot and orange peel. Taste - orange, apricot, melon and grassy hops. Palate - light to medium bodied, creamy middle with some grassy and zesty bitterness. Overall - good, but would like to retry when the green hop note falls away a bit.
