Description
We first fell in love with brewing on the stove at home, surrounded by pots, pans and raw ingredients. Tinkering endlessly, we studied the ancient art of our vocation. Nomadically brewing around the country, we learned from fantastically generous, knowledgeable artisans, honing our craft along the way.

Today, we’ve outgrown our roots as nomadic brewers, and operate out of two production sites. The first, a brewery we built in St Werburghs, Bristol, is where we focus on our core range of beers, constantly refining the recipes to bring you an ever evolving, perfect pour. New challenges continually arise and are met by our talented team of resourceful brewers, as we continue producing top notch beers whilst adhering to strict social distancing measures. Usually host to our tap room, we’re already looking forward to re-opening the York Street brewery to our friends, family and local community for fresh beers once we all come out the other side. At our second Bristol site, the Barrel Store, work continues on our complex, mixed fermentation and wild yeasted beers. Here, we serve as custodians over our barrel-aged brews as they develop on different kinds of wood.

Ever evolving in the quest for refinement, all of our recipes stem from the desire to create something beautiful and delicious.

Black beer, thick frothy head. Light coffee aroma. Flavour has the coffee, as you'd expect. Cream6, a bit of lactose. A but of chocolate but the coffee is the start of this smooth, tasty stout.

Bottle. Slightly hazy amber colour with a mediumsized foamy white head, which leaves some lace. Aroma is fruity, some yeasty and mild biscuity and caramelly tones. Flavour is apricot, peach, some mild nectar with some sweet malts and a bit yeasty tones as well.

(Can) Pours black with tan head. Nice aroma of coffee and roasted grains. Lovely mouthfeel - medium body with plenty of soft smooth carbonation. Great taste too. Rich and well balanced. There’s dark roast grains and bitterness combined with coffee and some milky sweetness. Really good.

(Draught at Mother Kelly's Vauxhall, London, 21 May 2023) Black colour with creamy, beige head. Malty, roasted nose with notes of milky chocolate, black coffee and black bread. Malty, roasted taste with milky chocolate, coffee, black bread, liquorice and a generous cacao bitterness. Medium body, with a certain milky sweetness. On the sweet side, but really rich and tasty. Very nice.

Half-pint, draught at Draper's Arms in Ealing. Cloudy golden body, filmy layer, spotty lacing. Slightly spiced citrus nose. Grass and lemony hops to the taste profile, and joined by a light spicy touch. Mid-dry fruity ending. A bit thin on the swallow. Fair enough. (Ealing, London 26.09.2023).

Overly large frothy white head on a hazy pale lemon coloured body. (I use regularly lemon as a colour description - not just because of this name) Zesty citrus & herbal aroma. Medium to thin bodied, sharp & clean. Lemon, coriander & zesty tastes with a sharp tangy finish. Would make a great 10 can sesh on the patio. 😉
