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.

Half-pint, cask ale at Crown and Kettle. Shared with Finn. Patchy beige head over a copper coloured body, dotted spots on the glass. Toffee and herbal hops on the nose, quite promising. Fine blended taste of caramel, toffee, and leafy hops. Bittersweet to the finish. Like it. (Manchester, 24.03.2024).

Cask @ Nightjar, Hebden Bridge. Dark amber with a creamy head. Bitter in style, low on bitterness or flavour, smooth enough to be enjoyable though.

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.
