Description
We pride ourselves on brewing exceptionally high-quality beer for you to enjoy, whether that’s at home or on an adventure. We source quality ingredients from the best suppliers, ensuring our beer is delicious and fresh.

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.

Bottle shared with Ashton McCobb. Pours clear golden with a light haze and a thin white head. Aromas of pale malt, wood and sherbet. Taste is dry, powdered lemon, more sherbet, paracetamol chalkiness. Wood at the back. Interesting.

Bottle from Appellation Wines. Appearance - dark brown to black with red chinks. Big creamy almost fawn head. Nose - big coffee bean, going into dark chocolate. Taste - bitter dark chocolate, just a suggestion of whisky booziness and then the coffee beans brings it home. Palate - medium to full bodied. Roasty bitter finish. Overall - not such a coffee beer nut, to be honest. It is pretty complex though. And it grew on me.
