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.

Bottle from Morrisons. Pours a clear golden colour with a thin white head. Light aromas of citrus, biscuits and floral. Taste is similar with an added touch of honey. Sweet finish. Medium body with a smooth oily mouthfeel. Not bad.

Bottle from Morrisons. Pours a clear copper colour with a thin off-white head. Aroma is malty with caramel and bread. Taste has more caramel and bread, some toffee and a little bit of peppery spice. Medium body, average carbonation and smooth oily mouthfeel. Not a bad beer but a bit boring.

Bottle from Asda. Pours a clear copper brown colour with a thin white head. Aromas of caramel, toasty bread, dry dark fruit and a touch of spice. Taste has the same notes again. Nice lingering malty aftertaste. Medium body, low carbonation and smooth mouthfeel. Good.

Clear amber with a foamy off-white head and an aroma of sweet fruit and caramel. The mouthfeel is smooth, and thin, with a touch of bitterness behind the sweet malt flavour, with some berry fruits and caramel coming through. Dry bitterness predominates in the finish

Bottle from Morrisons. Near black in colour, with a thin, beige, head. Toasty malts, milk chocolate, dark fruit and a sweetish, gentle, finish. A bit thin-bodied and not my favourite stout by a long way.
