Aldwark Artisan Ales

Brewers of Artisan craft beer, made using water from our own bore hole, this makes our beer unique. Limestone filtered in the hills of the peak district.
(26)

Welcome to our quirky world of sheep, cows, brewing beer and generally trying to sustain a life with our kids on the farm
we invite you through the farm gates to experience a little of our random life and to taste our scrummy ales. In the southern hills of the peak district, on a working beef and sheep farm, Ian is converting the old milking parlour into his very own ale producing laboratory. Ian

is a pharmacist by trade, a self taught builder, plumber, electrician and farmer. Jen is 3rd generation farmer on Lydgate farm, meal producer, washer woman and a generally disorganized mess. Fran and Max are instigators of trouble, mess and mayhem. (children)
and Dips the dog is just hungry. Wish us luck and enjoy following our story.

We’ve got a lively batch folks!
It’s over carbonated.. we’ve now reduced the amount of yeast and glucose we use in the bottle conditioning process.. it’s come out a bit too flat so we’ve gone for the middle.. you’d have thought we’d have mastered this by now! 😂
So anyone with over fizzy bottles get in touch and I’ll sort out replacements! In the meantime keep them cool and open in the sink and give it 5 mins.. just in case.
Hope this hasn’t deprived anyone of a good night in!

What an absolutely cracking weekend we had! Definitely lots to improve on next year but I think it’s safe to say that Aldwark first ever Beer and Shear was a success!
Huge thanks to all the shearers that turned up and were very patient with my very novice set up.. you were all brilliant and put on a great show for everyone!
Thanks very much to Ivor from who very kindly gave us his time to commentate! He was excellent, and a great representative!
To the crowd.. you were epic and turned out in the masses.. slightly overwhelmed the car parking attendants.. ha ha.. we weren’t quite expecting that many of you! But you were all brilliantly behaved and are very welcome here anytime! Thank you all!
But the biggest thanks has to go to our team! Time and time again we pull these mental plans off together all with a big smile on our faces! It is flipping hard work but we have the best time! Love you all!
So here’s to next years bigger and better Beer and Shear!
Thanks to all that sponsored us either money or prizes! They were all greatly received! And the vests went down a storm
THANK YOU ALL!

All ready for the Beer and Shear tomorrow! Beautiful weather given so we’ve set up outside!

Anyone who partakes in our rustic camping I always tell them to wake up for the sunrise! Might be a big ask after a night in a brewery bar, but my goodness.. it’s worth it!
