Description
We produce both cask and keg beer to the highest standards. From traditional best bitters, fermented in our open topped vessels, to hoppy IPA's fermented in our conical vessels, we aim to achieve the highest standards possible. We run a small lab in the brewery to ensure our beer is fermented cleanly, and is of the same high standard every time it comes to you. Our lab information is available to all our customers, from forced fermentation results and fining levels in cask beer to carbonation levels and yeast counts in keg beers. The Taproom at our brewery, located just off Perry Street, is designed to invite the community in Gravesend and beyond to come and see what we're up to on a regular basis, and see how we create and package our beer. The whole team share a passion for good beer, well cared for and well served. It is the aim of Iron Pier to provide great beer in the best condition we can.

Cask at Sun, Stafford. Pours golden yellow with minimal scummy off-white head. Malts and fruit loaf in the aroma. In the mouth it is sweet with a slightly watery texture. Favour has malts, floral hops and hints of spice and berry fruits. Some curranty hints later leading to a slightly dry finish. This is reasonable but somewhat bland.
