We use traditional brewing methods to produce a varied range of modern beers focused on drinkability and quality using the finest of English grown malts and hops as well as selected high quality hops from around the world and our own strain of historic Sussex live yeast.
We are lucky to still be surrounded by hop gardens in this corner of Kent and source as many hops locally as we can. We showcases these hops with our monthly-changing Single Hop Pale series and Small Batch specials.

From cask at The Dog & Bell, Deptford, London, with Holmen1 12.08.22. Translucent golden. Head is diminishing to nothing. Sweet pale malt, dried tropical fruits snd overripe papaya. A hint of yeast and a bit stale. Perhaps it has been in the cask to long, which would be unusal for The Dog & Bell. Not great.
