I recently did a quick favour for Stuart from Crown Brewery in Sheffied, he was having problems with his website so i offered to lend a hand, In return he was kind enough to send me a mixed case of some of his ales (each of which i will review soon)
The Crown brewery was started in 2000 in the cellar of the Hillsborough Hotel, with a 4 brl brew length and named after the original brewery that was across the road in the 30’s. After a few test brews, a core range was established that consisted of Hillsborough Pale Ale 3.9%, Loxley Gold 4.5%, Middlewood Mild 3.8%, Stannington Stout 5% and Samuel Berry’s IPA 5.1% (named after the original brewer.)
Wheetie Bits, Ring of Fire, Wheat Stout and UIPA
