Description
We think life’s too short not to enjoy what you do, so we decided to brew. First and foremost we brew beer for you to enjoy. But we also think the art and science of brewing is fascinating so we’re going to share that with you.
We’re interested in creating good chemistry in its broadest sense – not just in the quality of the beer we brew, but using that to allow us to celebrate community and relationships across science, the arts, music, food, and social experiences, as well as beer & brewing. We might be biased, but we think Bristol is one of the best cities in the UK, and we’ll shout about that as much as we can.
The brewery was started by Bob and Kelly in 2015, finding a home for the 10 barrel kit in St Philips in East Bristol.

Hand-pulled half-pint at The Pheasant Inn, Wellington Shropshire on 19th Sep 2019. Poured a cloudy light yellow, thin white head on top. Citrusy aroma and taste, lemons being the main player, dry finish. Not overly impressed to be honest.

GBBF Day 2. Cask. Light haze on this gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Smooth palate, mildly dry, reasonable fine carbonation. Light malts. Ripe citrus. Little peel. Light finish. Sigh!

Excellent summer beer, especially at 3.5%. lots of flavour for that, although thin mouthfeel
