Description
You can find Enville Brewery nestled amongst the beautiful rolling hills and valleys of the South Staffordshire countryside. Whilst stables may not be the obvious choice for most emerging breweries, Enville’s founder could see that these unused farm buildings would be the perfect, if somewhat unlikely, home for a brewery. We have have been brewing award-winning ales here in the village of Enville since 1993.

Handpull cask at the King's Head, Leicester. Straw colour, clear with a tiny uneven layer of white head. Aroma of artificial cherry like sour candy, so not great but not actively awful. Taste isn't awful either but skirts closer to it with a bittersweet astringency. More artificial cherry and a touch of sulphur in the aftertaste. No from me.

Taste comprises brown bread, musty, ashen, fruit rinds, less eggy than the nasal attack. Medium body, soft carbonation, semi drying close. Not good at all ... not eggsactly what I wanted in a mild !

Handpull cask at the Salmon, Leicester. Purplish brown, translucent. A smooth beige head on top. Liquorice and blackberry in the aroma. And in the taste as well. Sweet with only a hint of roast malt. A bitter/sour hoppy note balances the finish. Body is really watery for a porter. Not a fantastic beer, but it’s drinkable.
