Pheasantry News

OK, so I couldn't think of any Pheasant / Game related puns that weren't bordering on the offensive, and since they were nice enough to write something for us I thought I'd better give it a miss. So make up your own.

In the mean time here is an update from the Pheasantry Brewery on whats been happening there over the last few months.

News from Pheasantry Brewery

It's been a hectic start to 2015 here at Pheasantry with the launch of the 'Artisan' range of special beers, meaning a new seasonal beer gets brewed for every month of the year. The artisan range focuses on traditional and modern world beer styles to compliment our core range. January and February saw two new dark beers being launched with 'One Dark One, 4.5%' and 'Porter Ale, 5%' while March and April focused on more modern styles with our 4.5% 'Black Dragonfly IPA' and 'Red Rye Beer, 4.6%' both being very well received! Look out for the award winning 'Mikado Mild, 5%' in May and our crisp, refreshing 'Cask Pilsner, 3.9%' in June!In other news, we have had to double our cold store capacity and storage room racking to keep up with demand, as well as getting a fork lift for the brewery to make the whole thing smoother. It's a lot of fun to drive!

The restaurant/bar side of the business was taken over by local catering company Black Pepper Mint at the end of last year, to allow us to focus solely on the brewery. They've introduced a new menu, expanded the beer shop range as well as increased the number of hand pulls on the bar to 6. They will also be running our annual beer festival alongside us in June. So there's lots of exciting things happening here at the brewery, to ensure many more busy times ahead. Until next time, why not pay us a visit?

Thanks to Dan for the update!
