★ Award winningKnown for a full range of styles

A mad cyclist's passion for beer grew so much that he opened a brewery: that is how Fixed Wheel tells its start in Blackheath, in the Black Country. Co-founder and head brewer Scott raced on the UK cycling scene for years. The beers run from hoppy pale ales to rich dark stouts, built on British malts, hops from around the world and a house yeast, with monthly specials beside the core range. The taproom opens Fridays and Saturdays, with ten keykeg lines and six casks.

How we measure this

Two thresholds are at work here:

  • The signature list shows notes that recur in at least 6% of this brewery's beers. A low bar — enough to flag a pattern, not high enough to call it an exclusive trait.
  • The peer comparison below shows only notes where this brewery's coverage differs from similar breweries by at least 20 percentage points. A higher bar — enough to call a real difference, not a nudge.

A note can appear on the signature list without appearing in the peer comparison: it recurs here, but similar breweries do the same thing.
