The new brewery, which was established by Mr H. Constantine-Cort in 1992, was established some one and a half miles from the original site and draws its brewing liquor from the same source, the original extraction warrant being granted in 1908 by The House of Lords. The new brewery was constructed on a derelict farm known locally as the hamlet of Cox Green. Enville Ale, which represents 80% of the output of over 70 barrels per week, is one of the highly specialised beers produced on the site, the original recipe dating back to approximately 1850 and originating from the proprietors' great-great-aunt who lived in Cumbria. It would have been traditionally described as Beekeepers Ale. Originally Mr Constantine-Cort intended to move into full-time beekeeping and produce high quality bottled honey and a small amount of traditional beekeepers beer as a by-product. The position is now totally reversed. All of the five and a half tons of honey produced from 250 hives across the area goes into beer production. To supplement this the brewery is now growing its own barley on the original land belonging to Cox Green Farm.
