Description
An independently owned award winning micro-brewery, we started in an ancient milking shed just outside Bexhill, East Sussex. We’re now in a 2000 litre purpose built facility on the sprawling Sussex Downs just outside of Brighton where we brew traditional beers with a modern twist.

The music is always turned up too loud and in a nod to our roots, we have cows as next door neighbours.

We have a lovely community on our farm, working closely with our landlord and supplying beer to his son who runs the butcher’s and farm shop on site.

On tap at The Hop Stuff Taproom Ashford. A bit of tropical fruit. Mango I guess from the bad pun. It's a mango pale ale. Light bitterness. A bit perfumed floral. OK if you like that sort of thing.

Cask at the Alehouse, Reading. A dark chestnut coloured pour with a ring of white head; earthy aroma; dry in the mouth with a nutty taste, perhaps some chestnut; then some burnt toffee to finish.

On cask at the Stockbridge Tap. Appearance - golden amber with a nice fluffy head. Nose - apples and toffee. Light biscuit. Taste - more toffee and biscuit but sweet toffee dominates. Palate - close to medium bodied with a creamy texture. The finish is sweet but a little astringent at the same time. Overall - so so!
