Description
Independent Brewery producing a wide range of Cask, Keg, Bottled and Canned beers. Products available direct from the on-site shop and tours are available about twice a month. Most beers are now gluten free.
From modest origins in July 2011, which saw Nene Valley Brewery operating with just a two-and-a-half-barrel facility, the company moved into its new riverside premises at the end of that year and now operates a 15-barrel installation. Brewing is undertaken once a week with a range of products distributed to local pubs, wholesalers and direct to the public.

Cask at Craft Beer Rising 2014 - London. Pours clear, yellow-gold with a white froth capping. Decent hoppy number. Moderately dry, with a bit of rindy tangerine, slight flinty minerals, hey, mellow pale malt sweetness. Light bodied with fine carbonation; decent condition. Dry finish with faint pine needles, more hay, minerals and lemony hops. Good stuff.

Cask at Craft Beer Rising 2014 - London. Pours clear yellow with a mellow, white foam head. Decent beer. The character is defined by dry pale dough sweetness, faint yeast, bitter lemon rind. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Moderate drying on the finish, with mellow wheat bread. Tasty, if a bit simplistic.
