Northern Monk 27.02 British Culture / Archive Boombox 7.2% DDH IPA Collab with North Brewing.

Made with ground Japanese aduki beans. 3 Northern Monk Double 0 James 6.8% NEIPA Brewed with a grist of extra pale barley, two types of wheat, and a touch of munich malt and hopped with an array of US varieties for a silky mix of dank, peppery and citrus flavours against more ripe tropical notes. Northern Monk Transcendental Far Out IPA 6.5% IPA Transcendental brings complex, psychedelic aromas of earthy spice, evolving further with flavours of lime zest and herbal notes. Sharing Transient's tropical hop combination of Strata and Citra, expect a juicy, dank New England character. Polly’s Brew Co. Rock Major 5.2% Pale Ale Featuring Loral and Sabro, this beer bursts with tropical, juicy and coconut vibes from Sabro, but is much more balanced and approachable thanks to the lemon and dark fruit notes brought to the table by Loral. Long live the pale ale. Polly’s Brew Co. Birthday Beer 13% Quadruple IPA Chinook, Citra, Mosaic, Simcoe and Sabro hops were used to create a potent, bonafide hop bomb; bringing all manner of sticky, juicy tropical notes, and piney bitterness to play off the warming booze in this feat of alchemy. Happy birthday Polly's Brew. Polly’s Brew Co. Uncanny Valley 6% IPA Citra and Simcoe treated to all the tips, tricks and techniques Polly's Brew have learned over the last three years as a brewery. With their bespoke LA3 yeast strain working its magic here, holding all that incredible flavour in suspension, meaning all those pineapple, mango, and papaya notes are working full blast. Whiplash Beer The Horror 9% Smoked Export Stout It’s a big beer, oozing dark chocolate, burnt caramel, molasses, coffee... and luscious beech smoked godliness from nose to body, top to bottom, flame to embers, ashes to ashes. Whiplash Beer Dark Steering 5.2% Schwarzbier A black beer that is light with a fluffy soft and tight knit tan foam that won’t quit. Nose of fresh bread crust emerging from the oven, black cherry and a hint of fairy cakes. Flavour matches in amongst the medium to light body. S43 Brewery Rorschach 8.1% Baltic Porter A lesser-known style, S43’s first venture towards a Baltic Porter, Rorschach pairs smooth chocolate with plenty of coffee and raisin. Lagered for 7 weeks and fermenting it cold allowing the roasted malts to shine through, adding a fresh, easily drinkable character to an 8.1% beer. 4 Left Handed Giant Eleven Plus Two 8% DIPA Collab with Cloudwater Brew Co. DIPA with Citra Cryo, Chinook, Nelson Sauvin and NZ Cascade. Left Handed Giant West Coast IPA 7% West Coast IPA Featuring Simcoe Cryo, Citra, Centennial and Columbus. North Brewing Co. Dynamic Tension 10% TIPA Drinks like a big bowl of spiked fruit punch! Mosaic two ways and house favourite, El Dorado hooked up with Columbus, bares heavily ripe fruits from the tropics. Picture a still life of papaya, passionfruit, custard apple, mango and cantaloupe with lashes of golden honey being drizzled all over it. Duration Brewing Co. Happiness Runs 3.5% Pale Ale Collab with Double Barrelled and Simply Hops. This West Coast Pale has complex biscuity malts, bright orange pith and pine aromas from new Australian Eclipse hops. Sessionable and cheerful to remind us happiness runs in a circular motion and we never need to eclipse friendship.

Step Steadier 3.3% Table Beer A lower ABV DDH Table Beer with Simcoe, Vic Secret, Citra and Mosaic. Yonder Brewing & Blending Who Is Nellie? 7% Triple Fruited Melba Sour Packed with 360 grams per litre of fruit and finished with a touch of vanilla, Who is Nellie? is a tribute to the Peach Melba. Like the dessert, this beer is full of sweet, tart fragrant fruits, balanced in perfect harmony, but full bodied and just the slightest hint of booze for a 7% beer. Yonder Brewing & Blending Flying Wonder 4.9% Sea Buckthorn Saison Sea Buckthorn, foraged on the South West coast in Autumn, adds a bright, citrus acidity to the classic bread-like saison base beer. The vibrant orange berries are packed with vitamin C which makes itself known via the orange-like flavours which lift this beer way beyond its flavour expectations. Electric Bear Brewing Co. I was Working As A Brewer In A Call Centre 7% IPA A juicy IPA packed full of fruity juicy hops from America and New Zealand. The combination of hops used provide a very pleasant balance between citrus flavours and spicy piney notes. Making it a very easy drinking IPA with deep complexity and long-lasting flavours. Electric Bear Brewing Co. Read Between The Lines 5.5% Kolsch A beer that is somewhere in between a lager and a pale ale. This hoppy Kolsch has all the crisp refreshing characteristics of a German style Kolsch but with a healthy amount of Mosaic and Centennial hops added, giving it plenty of citrus and tropical flavours.
