Description
Wold Top Brewery was founded in 2003 by arable farmers Tom and Gill Mellor. Based high on the Yorkshire Wolds where the hills roll down to the North Sea, ours is a family business that is run by the third and fourth generation Mellors and we pride ourselves on brewing superior quality beer from home grown barley and water that is gently filtered by the chalk of the Yorkshire Wolds and drawn from the farm's own borehole.

Cask at the George, London. Pours clear, garnet brown with a filmy, off-white head. Sweet malt nose with faint caramel. Lots of ripe fruit in the flavor, hints of booze, mild dough and some leafy, herbal bitters. Medium in body with fine carbonation. A little messy on the finish. More ripe fruits and herbal hops. Nothing special, but OK.

Cask handpull at County Hotel JDW Ashford. Brown bitter colour with lasting beige head. It is a tasty enough bitter with just a little wateryness in the body as the only fault. Decent hops and malty fruit on the aroma and some strongish tongue tingling hop on the finish. Its a decnt brown bitter
