Description
We are George and Tom Jenkinson, brothers and directors of our family run brewery. Founded in 1980 by our father and mother, Richard and Lesley Jenkinson, we remain the oldest independent brewery in the Chiltern Hills and Buckinghamshire.

Located on an old working farm in the heart of the Chiltern Hills, the emphasis has always been to produce natural, wholesome beers using the best, class A malt and hops sourced in England. Our brewing process mirrors age-old methods and our beers are brewed with skill, passion and integrity. We have always been proud to support British farmers and all of our ingredients have a good provenance.

Cask, gravity at The White Horse, Hedgerley, 18th ’Coming of Age’ Beer Festival 29-05-10 Pours gold, this is clear, clean good looking beer. Some soapy hoppiness at first, this then gives way to a more lighter sweet citrus flavour. Its a bit thin but in fairness after a 6.6% beer it was always going to be thus. Enjoyable and drank well for the abv. A6 A4 T6 P3 Ov13 3.2
