Strong, dark treacle coloured porter, with Bramling Cross hops and a malty finish. An ale that harks back to 18th century London. Descended from brown beer, porter is a well hopped beer made from dark roasted malt.
Pale ale brewed using green un-kilned hops from local farms. Green hops are harvested and then pitched to the beer within an hour of picking to give more aroma and flavour. This year we've used fresh Goldings hops grown by Simon Parker at Instone Court.
A rich smooth dark mild with a nutty palate. Vanilla / Roasted and Smoky So popular that it's now available all year round!
The beer that changed everything. The first brew we perfected, the beer that made our name with its distinctive bitter, clean and refreshingly dry flavour. Made with only the best Maris Otter malt blended with a variety of English hops (a secret that we can never share), Butcombe Original is the classic session beer.
