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 at Smithfield, Derby. Pours almost black sith small cream head. Aroma is a mix of oats, lactose and vanilla. Pretty much the same in the mouth, with the addition of roasted malts, treacle and a hint of chocolate, making it fairly sweet overall. A little bitterness in the finish though. Decent.
