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.

Keg @ Nightjar, Hebden Bridge. Cloudy and dirty coloured brown with a small off-white head. Plum is not that evident in a darker brown malty ale, and these are quite bland tasting. In many respects this is a neutral tasting beer.

Cask @ Nightjar, Hebden Bridge. Golden-blonde with a small head. Fruity-hoppy, a little more of the former are apparent, with a dryness attached, and this is its rye influence, which is also evident in its aftertaste and aroma.
