Peakstones Rock Brewery

Peakstones Rock Farm, Alton, Staffordshire ST10 4DH phone 07891 350908 email dedwards@peakstonesrock.co.uk

visited by Wakefield CAMRA Saturday 16th July 2011

	It's literally a brewery in a farmyard. You can see the ducks on the web album!
	Here's the brewer, Dave Edwards. You can read all about his becoming a brewer on the Peakstones Rock website.
	On the da�s is the mash tun, and behind is the cold liquor tank which suffered a mishap when a pair of vinyl gloves blocked the vent at the top and thereby caused a seious vacuum problem as it was being pumped out. In the foreground stands a hop back made from the top of a Grundy tank.
	What a fantastic view across the Staffordshire Moors towards Alton Abbey, after which a 4.5% ruby coloured beer is named.
