Description
Originally started by Chris Clark in 2014 in his garage in Ryme Intrinseca. He moved the brewery to the current premises in Stalbridge in 2017 where he was joined by Matthew Glide as an assitant brewer. In November 2020 it was time for the assistant to become the master and Matthew took the brewery on... in the middle of a pandemic. Perfect timing of course.

We brew small batches of beer to exacting standards, and regularly test drive each beer!

Forever Bury Beer Festival 2016. Very dark hazy amber-brown coloured ale. Has a gritty malt influenced fruitiness, with a fair sweetness in its nose.

Pigs Ear Day 1. Cask. Almost clear dark brown beer, small pale tan head. Palate is smooth and semi dry. Modest fine carbonation. Dry bitter tangy dark malts, touch of coffee. A little dark fruits. Dry finish. Just another porter.

Cask Gravity at Pig’s Ear 2015. It pours darkest brown with a small beige head. The nose is toasty, sweet roast, umami, earth and salted liquorice. The taste is toasty, bitter-sweet, umami, salted liquorice and toasted sesame with a short, dry finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Perhaps a touch too savoury. Not a whole lot to it. OK.

Cask at Pigs Ear 2015, day 1 - London. Pours clear brown with a creamy, off-white head. Decent dark malt character, some dried berries, other leathery fruits, subtle earth. Light bodied with fine carbonation; pretty good condition. OK balance on the finish, some sweet bready malts, more dried out fruits, berries. Tasty beer.

Taste comprises rich malt, biscuit, fruit loaf, toffee, dates, twiggy vibes. Medium bodied, prickly and over carbed, semi drying close with a bitter linger. So so.
