Description
We've spent more years than we care to remember drinking real ale of all styles and flavours. This culminated in us buying our own pub, The Spinners Arms in Cummersdale, Carlisle in 2007 - where we naturally continued our research!
In 2013, we took it a step further and set up a 2.5 barrel microbrewery on site. We outgrew this quite quickly and moved to our current premises, opening a bigger plant in October 2015. We still have The Spinners Arms, it's now our brewery tap with a good range of our beer on the bar at all times!

Cask @ Microbar, Manchester. Golden with a creamy head. Well-balanced session ale with a light, easy-drinking texture. Not high on any particular flavours but feels good in the palate.

Cask at Pigs Ear 2014 - London. Pours clear gold with a creamy white head. The nose holds dough and nips of butter. Medium sweet flavor with pale, doughy bread, citrus, diacetyl, light bitter grains and hay. Light to medium bodied with fine carbonation. Sweet finish with creamy pale malts and citrusy meringue. So so.
