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.

Can from their market stall in St Albans. After a crazy Saturday and a dry Sunday this was a good way to get back on the horse. Good pour and aroma. A really tasty beer, lots of malt but happily lots of bitter hops in an amazingly well-balanced beer. And at 1.8% abv what's not to like.

Bag in a box from the brewer's own stand at the Bucks County Show. Clear yellow-gold with a white head. Quite a decent body for the low ABV - very smooth too. Interesting flavour - I don't think I've tried Barbe Rouge hops before. Strawberry to the fore, with orange blossom notes and a touch of lemon. Sweetish at first but that classic Chiltern rustic straw bitterness cuts through at the end to make a very tasty and drinkable brew. For a 3.4% brew this is excellent - well done Chiltern!

(Cask at White Horse, Parson's Green, London, 19 Nov 2023) Dark brown colour, almost black, with brief head. Malty nose with chocolate, caramel and soft toasted oats. Malty, roasted taste with notes of coffee, chocolate, liquorice, dark bread and a mild roasty bitterness. Medium body, with a touch of sweetness. Smooth and well balanced. Nice one.
