Our inspiration comes from the world over, but our focus is very much local. We concentrate on making the best beer in styles we love, for the people in our local communities. Our passion for the North West is paid back tenfold. We have local landlords who buy whatever we make, no matter the style - from barleywine to grisette - we’re really lucky that so many places support us because they like our beers, and their customers love to try anything local. The people we look up to are all the brewers who are never content with the beers that they’re making - you can always be better.

Bottle shared at Craft Islington. It pours crazy cloudy/murky dirty blonde with a thick white head. The aroma is fresh, creamy, juicy, orange creamiscle, peach, oiliness, pineapple, apricot and bready malts. The taste is dry, firm bitterness, green, grassy, slightly soapy, minerals, pithy, zesty, grapefruit rind and tangerine with a dry, pithy finish. Medium body and moderate, foamy carbonation. Aroma is rather nice, but the taste doesn’t quite match up. Nice stuff overall.

Light sweet flavour with a bright of heart dryness, grass, dry pale malts, minerals. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Dry and flinty finish, more yeast, tangerine, hay. So so overall.
Excellent start to #ISBF4!

Keg @ Drink? Hebden Bridge. Slighlty hazy golden with a small head. Hoppy, it feels much stronger than its strength might suggest, with fruits in both aroma and taste.

Gusher alert!
Pretty cloudy orange to amber beer, irregular big creamy yellowish head, pretty stable, non adhesive. Aroma: very fruity, dank, cheesy touch, sweet pineapple, passion fruit. MF: lively carbon, medium body. Taste: bitter start, cheesy and dank, citrus, grapefruit, tropical fruit, bit sweet. Aftertaste: malty, pineapple, some citrus, hoppy, dank finish. Very decent, except for that gushing part...
