Description
First brewed in Summer 2008. Beers under the badge "Chideock Brewery", but coming from the same source were seen in May 2012. Brewery location North End Farm, Venn Lane, North Chideok. By 2014 the brewery had ceased brewing on its own equipment while seeking new premises. In the meantime it is believed that some beers are being brewed on an occasional basis at Sherfield Village brewery. In 2016 brewing recommenced at a new location in Devon. Brewing ceased again during 2020 with production moving back to Sherfield Village.

500ml bottle from The Bottle Shop, Canterbury. Pours clear gold leaving a clump of yeast at the bottom of the bottle. Thin beige head. Some hop on the aroma. Bitter in mouth. Almost too bitter. Some orange fruit, some almost clove spiciness then quite a lot of bitterness. Medium to light malts. Heavily and perhaps too heavily hopped for the body. Decent though
