Description
The brewery is still a small family run operation and currently employs over 20 people. The business was set up by Shane and Alison Parr, with lots of help from Iain and Anne Reid (Alison’s parents) and Innes Reid (Alison’s brother), but we survive and thrive on the great crew we have working with us.
Our brewing plant capacity has been upgraded over the years and now is now 100 brewer’s barrels (28,800 pints) per week, which allows us to meet demand during peak periods. In 2013 we constructed a purpose built, energy efficient brew house, and we’re always looking for ways to improve our environmental impact by saving water and energy.

Bottle from Appleyards Deli, Shrewsbury. Appearance - golden with a proportionate head. Nose - lemon and malt. Taste - more of the same. There’s a particular lemon rind note on the finish. Palate - light to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a long dry finish. Overall - yep a decent session ale. I’d say it was a Golden ale.

Bottle from Moonshine and Fuggles at Ironbridge. Slightly hazy gold with a middling white. Lemon and lime up front give a pleasant and refreshing light sourness to the beer. Mild bitterness in the finish. Quite pleasant.
