Description
We've been brewing in New Mills since 2015, based at the Marina and opposite the famous Swizzels factory.
Our name comes from the other major landmark of the town, the Torrs - a park set in the 70-foot-deep gorge cut by the Rivers Goyt & Sett, that the town stands above and around, where many of the town's mills used to stand.

Cask @ Victorian Craft Beer Café, Halifax. Golden with a small creamy head. Has a crisp tropical fruitiness with its hop, not too stated, but smooth in the palate and tasty enough.

Bottle. Beer Stop, Dronfield. Very hazy, dark straw colour. Thin, bubbly, messy, sticky, white head. Nose is very fruity. Pineapple. Sweet white grape. Orange pulp. Vanilla biscuit malts. Taste is sweet, turning soft, pithy and zesty bitter. Juicy mouthfeel. Sparkly fizz. Some dryness on the finish, with a fruity, bitter close. Very nice, easy drinker.

Cask at Cafe Beermoth - Manchester. Pours deep brown with a thick, lasting beige cream head. Mellow roasted malts in the nose, some milk chocolate, light earth. Light sweet flavour with relaxed ashy roast, some bittersweet cocoa, scorched earth, faint leather. Light bodied with fine carbonation and creamy texture. Nicely layered chocolate in the finish, with more roasted malts, burnt wood, hints of dried dark berries. A really solid low-octane stout.

Cask @ Gardeners Rest, Sheffield. Black with an off-white frothy-head. Not quite feeling its strength, it has a fairly easy drinking texture with a smoothish, fuller, roasted malt aroma and taste.
