E TA left this review about Unity Brewing Co Tap
As sheds on industrial parks go, this one isn't bad. The Brewery occupies a single bar-like shed, the brewing plant taking up most of the space, the taproom filling up a gap at one end. There is a small bar counter at the side, a few high tables and stools, a sofa with some comfy seats, and a fridge full of canned beer for immediate consumption of take-away. A table football table lurks awkwardly by the lavatory door. It certainly isn't luxurious, but that's not a bad thing. Beer is dispensed from a bank of taps on a panel a behind the bar, ten of their own indie brews on with ABVs ranging from 4.0 to 8.0. These are complemented by a boxed cider on the bar. Dog treats are available on the counter. There is a 'beer yard' accessible from the side door, but it's just an outside area with no frills and no view. The young female bar staff weren't the most engaging, the TV screen was switched off and it was quite cold. They host occasional events, though audience capacity is somewhat limited. It was fine for a quick pint while in the area, and it's good to see these places becoming more popular, but I wouldn't rush back unless I happened to be in the area, particularly as their opening hours are limited.
