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 @ Baum, Rochdale. Pale straw-like ale with a creamy head. It has a hoppy bitterness to it and slightly sour in the palate. There’s some citrus fruits evident, certainly in the nose.

Cask @ Commercial Inn, Sowerby Bridge. Golden-yellow with a thin head. Quite strong which affects its pale ale texture, it’s much deeper than expected but there’s still a fruitiness evident.
