Description
Six ingredients. Four traditional, two unique.

There are four traditional ingredients in our brewing - English malt, the finest hops, our own strain of yeast, and pure Dartmoor water. Then we add great people and an awesome location, to create some real magic in our craft ales.

Dartmoor Brewery was established in Princetown in 1994 by award-winning brewer Simon Loveless and local businessman in humble premises behind the Prince of Wales pub. Today we have a state-of-the-art purpose-built brewery complex, but still based very firmly in Princetown, our birthplace.

Our great beers come from a passion for the brewer's craft, and a passion for our birthplace and home, Dartmoor National Park. We use only the finest ingredients in our traditiional craft ales. The finest English malts, carefully selected hops, our own strain of yeast, and clear, pure Dartmoor Water.

As England's highest brewery, at 1465ft above sea level, we are also well placed to enjoy the benefits of clean, fresh Dartmoor, and stunning Dartmoor views in every direction - both of which, we think, add a certain touch of magic to our brews.

Bij Two Bridges Hotel, Dartmoor. Typische Bitter, maar geen geweldige. Slap, waterig, wat toffee, heel licht bloemig, weinig bitter. Erg meh.

Fra fat på The Valiant Soldier i Roadwater, sammen med Steven: klar kobbergylden med utmerket skum helt ned. Deilig maltaroma og -smak, men ut over det skjer det ikke så mye mer, bortsett fra noe urteaktig og noen svakt skogaktige toner. Krydret bitterhet i avslutningen.

Bottle at home in Hackney - picked up from the local Co-Op. pours clear amber with a small, foamy off-white head. Light sweet flavour with notes of lightly toasted malts, British yeast, a little earth and leaf, subtle caramel. Light bodied with average carbonation. Sweet finish, more bready malts, nips of toffee and mild leafy bitterness. Drinks fine.

Bottle. A gift from Totnes. The person not the place. Clear dark amber. Slim off white foam. Nose has sweet toasty bready malt. Hint of the treacle addition. Taste is similarly sweet with just a light fruity bitterness. Smooth and easy drinking. Fine carbonation. Light dry and fruity bitter finish.
