When your stated aim is to make yourself "Windsor's top attraction" there is clearly no lack of ambition. For those who are unfamiliar with the UK Windsor Castle is the largest and oldest occupied castle in the world; this is a tough act to follow. However, there is no doubt that they produce lovely, award winning beers.
Good Cop is particularly interesting: It is bottle conditioned, meaning that secondary fermentation takes place in the bottle and hop leaves are used as well as the usual hop cones. The results are really rather good.
On the nose it is like a really well kept old fashioned real ale - hint of yeast, biscuity and welcoming. On the palate it is quite spectacular. It is grassy and clean but also full and mellow a really difficult thing to achieve. I can't even work out what I would eat with this beer it offers so much. Wonderful. (hope they are going to continue brewing it!)
