Comment: Well done boys, so now another reason to visit my family in essex (sorry dave) Make sure you save me some!!!!!!!!

Comment: I have tried (No enjoyed) your Virgin at The Moat in Doddinghurst. A great summer brew. Great taste; similar to but different from the likes of Summer Lightning or the now extinct Ridleys (God rest their souls) Spectacular.Look forward to your next brew.

REPLY:: ...Thanks Steve - brewing more Virgin again today (see update on about us page!). You'll have to nag Gordon to order more for the Moat!) Dave.

Comment: Like the web site. Good luck with the brewing and please keep us updated with your venture via the website. lots of luck Steph and Richard

REPLY:: Our fame has crossed the pond!   Thanks for the kind words Steph & Richard - will keep the updates coming!   You can be our U.S. distributers when we export! Dave.

Comment: Congratulations boys. It wasn't just the beer talking then - you've really done it!! What's even more surprising is that there's any beer left following the extensive in-house quality testing that was no doubt required.

Comment: I trust it will have a proper head on it - as with all summer virgins...lol

Comment: Love the site and looking forward to trying the beer at Chelmsford next week. South West Essex CAMRA Branch Chairman.

Comment: Great pint of Virgin at the Chelmsford Beer Fest last night. Keep up the good work - it's nice to have a brewery in Brentwood again!

Comment: Top marks to Dave and Roland! Tried a few pints today and have to say the taste was excellent. There aren't many beers that can sell out before they are settled, so if you want a Virgin get in there quick.Brilliant piece of work by you boys!

Comment: So it's not an urban legend then...Summer Virgin does exist !? ..and Stephanie wasn't delusional. What a relief. You've probably elevated your islands status, and for that you should be knighted. Finally, I've have a reason to cross the pond!

Comment: tried summer virgin at the anchor in brum cant wait for the next one you brew cheers keep up the good work

Comment: having read all the information on your website, I made the long journey down to Brentwood to The Rose & Crown to try a pint of the Summer Virgin. Well worth the journey, had several pints ~ excellent pint keep up the good work boys... Return visit to the area for more virgins and perhaps more, should you brew something new.... Neil.

....Glad you enjoyed it Neil!  Big Brown Bear on next - plus specials every few weeks! Let us know next time yr down!

Comment: Whens the beer coming to Kent!

....'tis already there!!!  Check it out at Dartford WM Club - CAMRA club of the year 2006!  We will deliver to elsewhere in Kent - as long as the Landlord orders it!  Perhaps you can talk your local Landlord into ordering a few 9's! We are happy to deliver!

Comment: will look forward to a Essex virginon my next trip to the old countryall the best Dagenham Daive

Comment: You guys are living MY dream! (how dare you...just kidding). We just moved from Suffolk to the USA after living there for nearly 7 years. I married a Brentwood girl so when we're visiting family there I shall be tasting the fruits of your labour!Good luck, guys! I hope you do really, really well!!!

Comment: Great beers! Nice to have met you both up the White Horse over the past few weeks and to have a chat. Still waiting to try the Volcano!

Comment: Of all the coincidences I went to a party at the Rose and Crown in March, Cambridgeshire who were selling Big Brown Bear. I'll be back for more.Out of interest, your picture gallery shows Franco and Nigel, who also appear on the Felstar website. What's the connection?Keep up the good work!

Comment: Brentwood has a good track record for such breweries – The Mighty Oak Brewing Company started with similar humble beginnings in Hutton before having to move to Maldon to find bigger premises to cope with demand for its award winning range of Real Ales and I am confident that demand for the excellent beers produce by the Brentwood Brewing Company will be similarly high and that this company will go on to win CAMRA and other awards too. “My congratulations and best wishes of to Dave Holmes and Roland Kannor on their success and I will be watching their progress with great interest.  http://www.ericpickles.com/newsarticle.php?id=1180

Comment: Good luck with your larger brewery boys. When will the beers be heading east towards Southend.

Reply - They already have!  Check out the Cork & Cheese, Victoria plaza, Southend!

Comment: It's great to be able to drink Locally brewed Real Ale that was not made by your dodgy uncle in his dirty garden shed!I've just ordered 70 Summer Virgins for my 25th Wedding Anniversary Party - Don't tell the wife!!!

Reply; ....you've met my uncle then!
