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 handpump at Far From the Madding Crowd, Oxford, Tuesday 25th September 2012 £2.90 for a 5.2% APA was very good. Golden with a filmy white head, citrussy with some cooked preserved lemony flavour. Nicely bitter with a dry edge, sweetness is apparent but quite subtle. Good beer. A7 A4 T7 P3 Ov14 3.5

Mild mannered pale ale lacking the aroma of its kind, but easy enough to drink with some fruit notes. Fairly smooth to drink with a small smooth head.
