Description
Welcome to the Falstaff Pub and Brewery

We are a Derby micro-brewery selling our beers throughout Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire, Leicestershire, Staffordshire and the West Midlands. We have a stable of six regular brews and each month we brew specials that change in style and strength.

The Falstaff pub is a traditional real ale house. We have up to 6 hand-pulls serving real ale, generally our own brews with the occasional guest ale. We serve draught lagers, ciders and Guinness with a selection of spirits, wines and soft drinks available.

Cask at NWAF, Derby, Thursday, 18th February 2016 Good bitterness and a pleasantly fruity beer, quite a malty number, a touch of biscuit and bread. This drinks a lot easier than the abv might suggest. I didn?t mind this at all. A6 A4 T7 P3 Ov13 3.3

Cask handpump at The Imperial Tavern, Worcester Saturday 5th December 2015. Pours gold with a white head, it looks really good. Fruity, a little zappy, with a slight furry bitterness. Dry finish, not particularly complex but it’s actually quite good. A6 A4 T7 P3 Ov13 3.3

Bottle, purchased at brewery, consumed at home.17/5/15 Pours very flat, with virtually no head, and vaguely cloudy, and a small amount of sediment left. Not much aroma to speak of either. Cloying like you would expect a 15% beer to be. Initial flavour of blackberries & schnapps, with a honeyish aftertaste.

Bottle from Falstaff brewery consumed at home, Sunday 22nd February 2015 Hazy golden, flattish appearance, with just a tiny white rim. Hugely sweet beer, lots of honey a tiny little bit of vinegar on nose. Tastes like homebrew, pretty rough homebrew, banana, honey and dab of vinegar, far too sweet. Not great. A5 A3 T4 P2 Ov9 2.3
