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.

Hand-pulled half-pint in the Boot on 1st October 2023. Neat white top on a hazy yellow body, citrus front to the aroma and taste. Just like so many NEIPA's in the UK.

Gravity Cask at York Beer & Cider Festival 2023. Gluten Free. Clear pale golden colour, bubbly white foam head and aroma of grain, malt, straw. Taste is tangy, grainy, straw, hay, fruity, with some dusty bitterness. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, dry bitter finish. Quite drinkable

Cask @ Nightjar, Hebden Bridge. Light golden with a head. Hoppy session brew in both aroma and taste, feels light but not thin in the palate.

Cask @ Fox And Goose, Hebden Bridge. Hazy golden with a creamy-frothy head. Easy textured hoppy-fruity, but nothing is stated or that interesting here - perhaps a bit creamy in taste.
