Description
Founded in 2006 in a renovated farm building which overlooks Beeston church and the tranquil valley beyond. which provides a perfect setting to craft our fine beers.

Sustainability and locality is at the heart of what we do. Our water comes from deep in the Norfolk chalk from our private supply beneath the brewery, and is perfect for brewing real ale.

Our main ingredient, Maris Otter malting barley is grown locally at Branthill Farm on the Holkham Estate. This is some of he finest malting barley on the planet.

Bottle from Branthill Farm Real Ale Shop, Wells next the Sea, Norfolk. Clear, chestnut brown. No head. Woody, toffee, maltiness. A hint of bonfire toffee, maybe. Taste is fruity and dry. Brown sugar, then a woody bitterness on the finish. Good stuff.

My second beer from this brewery at the CAMRA AGM in Norwich on 20 Apr 2013: gravity poured pint into a UK sleeve. Thought it looked like the first beer (Worth The Wait) initially, but this is slightly more golden and has a deeper hue to it, same no show of a head though. The nose and taste were almost a mirror image of their other offering: citrusy and refreshing, again with no huge flavours to get into or pontificate about. Just another ’run of the mill’ citrusy blonde I’m afraid.

Gravity poured pint at the CAMRA AGM in Norwich on 20 Apr 2013. Very pale golden brew with not a lot of head on show. Hoppy with a citrus base, nothing too strong: refreshing without testing your taste buds or sense of smell too greatly. Pleasant enough brew, but lacks a punch and body-depth in my eyes.
