Description
Nightjar Brew Co is the brand created by the team behind Slightly Foxed, established in 2011. This is a continuation of business – not one company going ‘under’ to re-emerge as another – same AWRS, VAT number, company number etc. After many successful years creating award-winning and popular cask beers, the brewery took a decision to undertake a significant rejuvenation.

But unlike a new entrant into the market, we come with many years of knowledge, learning, innovation, and expertise that’s mandatory for crafting a product that customers in 2018 are seeking out and expecting.

Cask @ Flying Horse Hotel, Rochdale. Hazy light golden with a head. Pleasant mix of hops and tropical fruit notes in both aroma and taste. Easy enough.

Cask @ Nightjar, Hebden Bridge. Extremely dark with a light-brown head. Milky enough stout to make it smooth in the palate with light roasted notes in both aroma and taste, although not the most flavoursome in this respect.

On tap at The Star & Garter, Bromley. Hazy gold pour with a white head. Nose is mango, tangerine, zesty orange. Taste is orange marmalade, mango, papaya, spot of pineapple. Very fruity, very hoppy brew. Good stuff.

Cask @ Nightjar, Hebden Bridge. Black with a creamy light-brown head. Coffee is dominant in both aroma and taste here, usurping any regular porter character, and lingers long in its aftertaste. It's also smooth tasting, and very palatable given its relatively easy strength.
