About
We are a small group of people who are passionate about beer. So much so that we decided to bring a brewery back to Bewdley.

It has taken a lot of hard work and determination but we hope you'll agree it has all been worthwhile. Together we bring years of experience from within the industry and by just enjoying a good quality pint!

We brew on a 10 barrel plant which produces 2880 pints per brew. We have capacity to brew four times per week, and so this gives over half a million pints per year.

Wild River is our craft and keg arm of the brewery.

500ml bottle from Appleyards. Pours pale gold with the faintest mist. Sweet male on the nose. Taste presents a standard moderately sweet lager, gentle bitterness, a touch grassy, measured carbonation. Decent Black Country lager, if that's such a thing.
