OUR ALES
taste defines us …
Our brewery is slap-bang in the middle of the country’s finest malting barley-growing region – so, as you would expect, we use the riches on our doorstep.
We also use the resources from under our feet – chalk-filtered water from the brewery’s own well.
We source only the highest quality hops, selected for their aromas and flavours to create distinctive beers.
Moon Gazer Ale
All Moon Gazer ales carry names inspired by the brown hares, which we are fortunate enough to see daily in the countryside around us – and are available in six different styles: Jumper, Jigfoot, Nibbler, White Face, Bouchart and our Gluten Free Pintail.
In addition to this core range there is an every-changing offering of one-off special Moon Gazer ales and collab brews, some of which we show below.
Jigfoot
Norfolk Golden

Our golden ale – well-hopped character, citrus notes and a crisp finish.
