Knights Reward - Growlers and 2 & 4 Pints for Collection

The Chiltern Brewery

Dark Seasonal Ale · 3.4% ABV

Soft Roast · Gentle Hops · Easy Drinking

A dark seasonal ale with a softness that sets it apart.

Knight’s Reward brings together smooth roasted malt character with a gentle sweetness, creating a beer that feels fuller than its strength suggests. At 3.4%, it carries its flavour with ease — making it as suited to a second pint as it is to the first.

A darker beer, made for relaxed drinking.


Character & Style

Brewed with Maris Otter, Crystal and Chocolate malts, this is a beer built on balance and drinkability.

The roast is soft rather than sharp, giving a rounded, mellow depth, while a light sweetness runs quietly through the palate. The hops — Fuggles and Target — are measured and traditional, providing structure without overshadowing the malt.

The result is smooth, composed, and unmistakably satisfying.


Why You’ll Want to Try It

This is not a dark beer that demands attention.

Instead, it offers a steady, reassuring character — flavour that unfolds gently, and a finish that invites another sip. If you enjoy darker styles that remain easy-going and well balanced, this is one to return to.

With St George’s Day approaching, the name offers a quiet nod to the time of year.

But this is a beer that stands comfortably on its own — and one we expect may become a familiar favourite.
