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.

Bottle. A clear, golden beer topped by a small, white head. Pretty grassy, resiny aroma with grapefruit peel and a malty touch. The flavor has pale malts as a backdrop for the bitterness, grass and grapefruit. Full body, nice carbonation and pretty dry. Lasting bitter finish with a hint of metal. Overall, sure a nice one, although a bit one dimensional. Easy drinkable too. 140228

Fra cask på Lincolnshire Poacher, Nottingham 27 Jan 14. Svart. Lavt, svakt farget tett skum som varer en stund. Gardinlacing. Veldig forsiktig kaffearoma. Smaken litt tynn. Hint av oppvaskvann & kaffe. Svakt tørr i ettersmaken. Blir hverken fugl eller fisk.

Hand-pulled pint in The George Hotel (a Spoons) Bewdley on 22nd Feb 2014. Good deep amber body with a full and lasting white crown. Looks like a malty brew but it has a hop lead in both the aroma and taste: dry feel to the mouth with nutty and woody notes within the flavour. I really enjoyed this and would have had another pint but I was on a mission and needed to try something else before hitting the town’s brewery and more pubs.
