Description
Sherfield Village Brewery started brewing in May 2011, using a five-barrel plant. We're based on a farm in the North Hampshire village of Sherfield on Loddon. As well as a range of traditional British bitters and stouts, we also make extensive use of New World hops, particularly the heavily floral and citrus-loaded New Zealand hops such as Green Bullet, Motueka and Pacific Jade. We're small, which means we're flexible as regards delivery times - by sticking to a local area for direct deliveries we're able to deliver quickly - usually within a couple of days. We are on SIBA's DDS list, so available to Enterprise, Admiral and other group pubs. SVB is a few miles north of Basingstoke and just ten miles south of Reading. Note that all our beer is supplied to the pub trade and to festivals in plastic 9-gallon firkins. Note that all our beers are now unfined, so vegan-friendly.

Cask at the Nags Head, Reading. A slightly hazy amber pour with a tight cream head; simple citrus aroma; a citrus bitterness in the mouth at first, then becoming softer and biscuity; the bitter finish is gentle but sustained.

Gravity dispense at Ascot Racecourse Beer Festival 2012 - 06/10/12. Hazy golden with a white head that soon thins. Light fruit nose, small trace of hops, buttery diacetyl tones. Taste follows, hops a little muted, some fruit notes. Medium bodied with moderate carbonation. A tad dull !
