Beginning as a 5 barrel plant in 2005, Digfield Ales attracted attention early on with a multi award-winning outing at their very first Peterborough Beer Festival in 2006. Now a well established 15 barrel plant, the brewery has an enviable reputation for consistently produced, quality real ales, with clarity and flavour being absolute watchwords.
Digfield supplies multiple outlets on a regular basis and has many longstanding customers. Owners/brewers Paul and Michael are proud of these enduring business partnerships and value them highly.
Located in Barnwell, Digfield offers 5 regular beers and one seasonal beer. Using English malt and English, European and American hops, the brewers employ a combination of science and instinct to develop beers that taste ‘right’ to them. Though they are conscious that palates differ, and it is not possible to produce one beer that everyone will like, this methodology has (so far) sufficed as a reasonable barometer for taste(s) in general.
The highly distinctive logo and pump clip designs are produced by local artist Carry Akroyd. The tree on the logo is a young oak at the edge of the Dig Field, where Roman archaeology was uncovered.
