Originally set up in an old and redundant milking parlour, the environmentally friendly brewery is now housed in a state of the art, purpose-built facility.
We use pure water from our spring, rising 852 feet above the sea at Trebarwith Strand, and our very own wind turbine, to produce a suite of classic real ales for all of Cornwall to enjoy.
All beers are also made with wet yeast (a great mark of quality) and English malts and hops (so that they hold their head well), and have a refreshing sparkle in their character from cask conditioning.

On gravity at the Green Man, Bristol 26/09/10. Copper coloured with a slight, off-white head. Sweet, toffee aroma with plenty of citrus hop. Flavour started sweet before a contrasting citrus hop kick, which worked really well, and dry finish. Unusual and enjoyable.
