This is the second outlet for local award-winning Blackedge Brewery which opened in 2019. It has the friendly, community feel of a micropub. The timber and brick decor is complemented by the subdued and artistic lighting to give a homely atmosphere. Seven handpumps serve the core range of Blackedge beers supplemented by their seasonal, occasional and one-off beers. There are also ten modern keg fonts serving beers from Blackedge, 2 European Lagers (Paulander & Stiegel) a nitro stout and occasional guests
