Description
We are Boutilliers, a small brewery based around the back of a farm shop in Faversham (Macknade fine foods if you were the curious sort.) Originally founded by 2 former uni buds, Boutilliers is now run by Rich, a former english teacher, and Drew, professional loud mouth. Our core focus is to brew creative styles and innovate with the resources we have to hand. When possible we like to use produce from local companies including tea and hops but we’ve not limited ourselves to this philosophy. Beer is an infinitely sprawling landscape with an equal number of potential possibilities, we don’t wish to simply make the same beer every time we brew, we want to explore, we want to play, we want our beer to be fun.

Bottle from Coach Works Ashford and drunk at home. Black beer with a lasting tan head. Smooth chocolate stout. Very much like the coffee version just without the coffee. Decent enough oatmeal stout. Good smoothness.

Bottle from Coach Works Boutilliers bar and drunk at home on New years Day 2020. Black beer lasting tan head. Chocolate and coffee no doubt in both aroma and flavour. Good smooth mouthfeel. Lovely balanced coffee and chocolate flavours. Some bitterness on the finish. Juicy but very good.

Bottle from Hoptimism. Floral and nutty aroma with underlying earthiness and a hint of the vinous. Cloudy pale toffee brown. Thick foamy off-white head. Light bitter followed by rich fruity sugary sweetness. The low key bitterness remains throughout. Some boozey warmth in the finish. Light-medium bodied. Slick to thin. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long minimally astringent finish. Enjoyable. A good dose of sweetness but not overly flamboyant.
