With over two decades of experience in hospitality, we have the insider’s understanding of the drinks industry, and the technical knowledge required to create one-of-a-kind brews.

Cask at Smithfield, Derby. Pours a hazy bitter brown with a small off-white head. Aroma is mainly malts with a general air of fruitiness. In the mouth it is fruity with oranges, aplles and raisins overlaying a malt base. After a while some floral hops come through leading to a dry and bitter finish. This is quite nice.
