How long has the brewery been going, and how many new brews have there been? I
It seems most of the brews are 'new' brews. There does not seem to be a consistent strength or trend in products.
It seems rather harsh to call perfectly good, consistent quality real ales from other micro breweries anything to do with the Devil.
Maybe the 'locals' (all 8 of them) have lost their palates for these beers, I know they used to be perfectly happy with them before the brewery opened.
"Local beer for local people" springs to to mind here.

Here at the Ship Inn Brewery we have a portfolio of eight different styles of beer,
Seven of the beers are brewed in a constant rotation of two products per week, one is a Christmas seasonal, We try to cater for most peoples palates by hopefully doing something for everyone, and judging from the feedback we seem to be doing just that.
We currently brew:

Two wheat beers: Sea Wheat and Sea Coal the latter described as “stunning” by the guardian.

Two “ales”: Dolly Daydream and Ship Hop Ale

One Stout: Sea Dog

One IPA : Indian Summer

We have had lots of visits by some of the big brewers, to name but a few
The head brewer from Young’s, fullers & Archers, a few of the older retired brewers ex Bass, Whitbread, old Greene King, The Chairman of SIBA, Wychwood ,Bateman’s CEO of Farhams and a few of the local micro’s all suitably impressed by our products.
Our Brewer spent several years in the biotechnology industry working in fermentation with bioreactors doing precise controlled fermentations where parameters could be changed at the push of a button and progress monitored. Many micro brewers as we are well aware, do not have this control therefore the ABV is always not as hoped or predicted, and many of the brewers agree with us our 3.8% will not always be 3.800000% so we pay our duty as it is, not really a problem, if anything more of a challenge for our brewer, there are lots of variables in the brewing process!! A minuscule difference in the ABV does not impair on the quality of our products, whilst chatting to our irregulars, the quality is constant, “ give me six bro”.
Due to the success of the brewery people are travelling along way to seek it out, by having a selection of other micros products available this can only be of a beneficial nature to the other breweries offering a selection of “local ales brewed by local brewers” ourselves included.
Due to our size and unique position we are very privileged and very fortunate that we can be experimental with our business and our brewing and fully appreciate the pressures and constraints faced other brewers especially in the present climate and that our perhaps “laid back approach” may upset some people, this is not our intention.

Don’t forget it’s only beer and not blood plasma!

What will the 100th brew be called BAXTERS, CAMBELLS or HEINZ or will the Clangers Soup Dragon keep it a secret from the real world

What about the gap on a boat between the deck and the side where all the surplus surface water drains away.

Between the devil and the deep blue sea

How super
