Look out for The Lucky One

Our mellow, honeyed ale will be on sale from 10am on Friday 13th in the Brewery Shop and Tap. Don’t miss out!
Did you know?
Friday 13th may be lucky for some, but certainly not for the 6 geese who flew over the village of Tongham on Friday 13th October 1995 and crashed straight into the main power supply to the Brewery, causing a total power cut. The loss of power came at a critical point in the brewing process and in order not to lose the brew, the staff came up with the inspired idea of adding honey to make the beer ferment. The resulting brew tasted so good, that ever since that fateful day, we have brewed Friday 13th whenever that date appears in the calendar.
