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 at the Swan (Nicholsons), Hammersmith. Amber with a ring of white head; muted tropical fruit aroma; soft and sweet in the mouth with lots of trpoical fruit - mango and pinenapple particularly; then a crisp, grapefruity finish. A good single hopper.

Cask at Weatherspoons Birmingham. Pours amber with a good white head and lacing. Aromas of citrus, spice and caramel. Good bitterness in the taste too, well-balanced. Medium body and a faint spritz. Very nice.

Hand pulled at The White Swan, Solihull. Poured a clear medium amber with a frothy broken white head. The aroma is stale malt leading to a medium bitter flavour with a malty, weak hoppy, liqourice palate. It’s more like a session bitter than an IPA so I’m a touch disappointed.

Cask gravity at Kent BF 2013. Gold thick white head. Nettle hoppy. Really quite hoppy some bitterness on the finish. Quite arresting and I wasn’t keen to start with but it grew on me.
