One advantage of being located in the middle of the countryside and getting up at the crack of dawn to make beer is you get to see amazing sunrises like this morning!
If you look closely you can just about make out the brewery in front of Winkburn Hall.
Finally ready to go, KISMAT Coffee Porter, our newest beer. All our research into this beer has paid off and the results are fantastic!
A porter with that chocolate roast character and caramel maltiness that you expect are mellowed out with the infusion of our own cold brewed coffee which you get a large hit of on the nose.
There are none of the harsh roast flavours that you normally get from the use of coffee, as it’s cold-brewed using our own recipe, giving it a real smooth mellowness.
Once again a big thanks to @coffeepods for supplying us with the coffee beans, we’re sure it won’t be the last time we use them!
Well our 250th brew went by without us really noticing, luckily it coinsided with a new brew
Aftermath, which a few eagle eyed people may have already spotted in a few selected outlets. A hoppy American black ale, a malty backbone leads to a citrus stone fruit aroma. It looks like it should taste roasty & like a dark beer but drinks more like a pale ale!
New brew on the go this week, our 1st porter and it’s going to be infused with our own cold brew coffee with quality Italian beans kindly donated from @coffeepods who are also based on the Winkburn Estate.
Lots of roasted and caramel flavours from the malt will be mellowed out from the cold brew coffee infusion.
Keep an eye out for it in a couple of weeks!
Don’t forget your ‘Soulmate’ this valentine’s! Beer – the perfect gift for the one you love!
Salted Caramel Pastry Stout. This is a limited edition of our Matte Black, brewed to a higher strength but also a higher finishing gravity giving a dessert like sweetness to the finish. The addition of lactose gives a milky smooth stout combined with chocolate notes and that distinctive salted caramel sweetness, it’s truly an indulgent delight.
Available in 5 & 10l beer-in-a-box or on a bar at selected outlets.

Finally got round to bottling this again, batch no.4 of our lager – slightly tweaked to bring down the maltiness a tad & make it even more refreshing. All we need now is some sunshine to enjoy it in the garden!
