Description
Creative brewing is all about not sticking to the same old formula. Since 2008 we have experimented with different combinations of hops and ingredients to find both traditional and excitingly new tasting ales. We brew it with the care and attention we believe it deserves. Finest English malt is the base for all Backyard Brewhouse beers but it does not stop there. Combinations with hops such as New Age American, Old English, Slovenian and New Zealand as well as one or two other secret ingredients have helped make all our beers popular and distinctive. We are committed to creating new and interesting beers to sit alongside our range of core and regular products.

Cask @ The Railwayman's Arms, Bridgnorth. Pours dark with small tan topping. Lots of coffee jumping out on the nose giving a big nod to the coffee flavours to come. Some coal and ashy hints, though that could just be suggestive thanks to the name, some chocolate notes, dry roast, dark malts but largely this beer is all about the coffee. Not bad.

500ml bottle. Clear straw colour with a generous white head. Citrus and biscuit aroma, flavour is lemon, biscuit and, oddly, butter. It's a bit like a lemon meringue pie tbh but not quite as satisfying

This is... fine. Clear golden with a white head. Light zesty, bready aroma and the flavour is about the same but nothing to knock your socks off. An almost buttery flavour in the backtaste along with some bitter citrus. Chilled it's fine and refreshing but it doesn't taste of an awful lot really.

Hand-pulled cask pint at The Crown Inn, Oakengates, Shropshire on 21st Dec 2018. White fluffy head on a golden body. Not a huge amount going on aroma wise, taste is a decent blend of earthy hops and light malty sweetness.

Hand-pulled cask pint in The Cock Hotel, Wellington Shropshire on 6th Nov 2018. Golden amber body, clean and clear, off-white crown. Nice hop front to the nose and taste, piney and fruity, but not citrusy (a bonus for me). The malts are in the background throughout, but add a little sweetness to prevent the beer being too bitter in nature.

5th Oct 2018. Hand-pulled half-pint, The Crown Inn, Oakengates Shropshire. This Rye Ale is a lovely clean amber colour with a white head that left some heavy lacing on the glass. The Rye comes through the brew in both aroma and flavour, battling nicely with the Barley Malts to give a semi-sweet taste to the beer. Light hop bitterness in the finish.
