ack of the Wood is offering up some of the best and most unique microbrews in the region, including beer from our very own, nearby brewing facility. At any given time the mash tun and fermenters are giving life to a new batch of handcrafted brew under the watchful eye of our resident brewer John Stuart, who is producing up to 21 thirty-one gallon barrels of beer a week. The beer flows almost non-stop in the pub. It is a tough job to keep up . Using English and Belgian yeasts and specialty grains gives the beers their unique appeal and distinctive style. Below are the descriptions of our Ales.
