Ed Wray at parliament


Ed Wray with Brandon Lewis MP, Pubs Minister

Our Project Brewer Maltster Ed Wray was recently invited to Parliament for a special event hosted by the British Beer and Pubs Association (BBPA) and The Campaign for Real Ale (Camra).

The BBPA approached us to brew a bespoke bottled beer that could be given as a gift to the MPs at the event. Ed created a British IPA using two British hops - Jester and Endeavour - in our pilot brewery at our Nutfield site. The end product had a soft, sweet, biscuit malt base, complemented by hints of caramel and fresh citrus, grapefruit and tropical fruits. More citrus, orange aromas and a spicy, marmalade character were then balanced with a clean, bitter, dry finish. The IPA was a resounding success with the MPs and Ed has certainly done the company proud with his unique brew.
