Triple fff

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Triple fff Brewing Company Ltd is a small independent brewer of real ale based in Four Marks, Alton, Hampshire, England, and founded in November 1997. They own two Alton pubs, the Railway Arms and the Old Leathern Bottle.

The brewery produces high quality real ale and has won over 35 industry awards, including a Gold Award for Best Beer at the Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA) Great British Beer Festival. They attribute their success to fine ingredients, including Maris Otter Barley malted in the traditional way at Warminster Maltings.

Their beers include:

  • Moondance - one of their original beers and champion best bitter of Britain 2002
  • Comfortably Numb - their other original brew, and a mid brown strong ale
  • Alton's Pride - a golden brown session bitter which gained the bronze award at Olympia 2003 & 2004
  • Pressed Rat and Warthog - champion mild of Britain 2002
  • Stairway - a pale brown ale with a flavour of summer fruits
  • Little red Rooster - a rich, dark beer from a complex combination of pale and dark malts

A recent venture has been to produce a beer from a recipe by Gilbert White, the famous naturalist born in 1720 in nearby Selborne.
