Description
We are a 6BBL brewery fast out-growing our current site. Also combining a taproom and burger bar, our team are continually economising with space in order to maximise our postage-stamp-footprint.
Our site has a fascinating history. We opened in November 2017 and despite originally being built as a pub, the first ever pint poured here was a Steam Town one — one hundred and eleven years after the original application was rejected.
The name Steam Town is a nod to Eastleigh's rich industrial railway heritage, something we honour throughout the business — from original railway memorabilia and repurposed materials in the taproom, to our beer names and Heath-Robinson-inspired labels and pump clips.

Cask (Guide Dog, Southampton) - Brown in colour. Berries, brown sugar, nuts and some roasted notes in the aroma. The taste is slightly nutty and roasted along with notes of dried fruit and blackcurrant. Quite nicely balanced. An enjoyable bitter.

Cask (Guide Dog, Southampton) - Golden in colour. Pine, hop resins and grapefruit in the aroma. Hoppy taste with grapefruit, lemon and hop resins detected. Nice but not quite as hoppy as I was expecting/hoping for.
