Beer, Glorious Beer! Beer, glorious beer! THE DRINK THAT’s aS QUINTESSENTIALLY BRITISH AS THE UNION JACK OR A RED PHONE BOX. Beer has been produced in Britain for thousands of years. By the Middle Ages it was already our number one drink, as it was always cleaner than the water. And today our thirst for more and more beer is unquenchable. So join us on a tasting trail around the British Isles; you never know what you might find – a Banana Bread or an Old Tom with Chocolate; the eccentric names can only hint at the taste sensations which lie ahead. All of our featured beers have their own unique characteristics and complexities, with differences in style, quality, taste and strength. By tasting different types of beers you’ll soon learn to appreciate the variations (a convenient excuse in anyone’s book). And if you’re spoilt for choice and simply don’t know where to start, we’ve just the thing – a ‘beer flight’. These selections offer three different beers (a 1/3 of a pint each) from a chosen region of the country. And if beer doesn’t float your boat (or should we say sail your ship?) we have some refreshing fruity alternatives for you from the major cider producing counties of Herefordshire and Somerset – like Old Rosie and Orchard Pig. So whether you’re an authority on ale, or a true ‘beerginner’, let the journey commence and the amber nectar flow. Bottoms up!!! What’s your style? CLASSIC ENGLISH ALE Pale, copper or brown ales balancing malt, yeast and English hops INDIA PALE ALE Heavily hopped pale ales, usually higher strength. Expect bold, intense aromas with citrus fruits and soft flavours PALE ALE Pale, light bodied session ales with little malt character allowing hops to come through GOLDEN/BLONDE ALE Refreshingly blonde or golden ales, often with a floral or fruity hop aroma SPECIALITY Something completely different from the usual characters, expect some interesting flavours! StRONG ALE A rich and complex beer, between amber and reddish copper, usually a bold fruity, estery and malty mix CIDER Traditionally made from fermented apple juice, cider can be dry or sweet, cloudy or clear, still or sparkling Some of our products may contain allergens. If you are sensitive to any of these, please speak to a member of staff before ordering.

  • Got Beer? Music in a Bottle
    Got Beer? Music in a Bottle I was sitting in Boneheads, a very cool rock ‘n’ roll themed wing bar in downtown West Warwick, when I spied an interesting bottle with a familiar image from an Iron Maiden album on the label. Naturally I had to give it a try. Music-themed beer is an interesting phenomenon. Many breweries honor the music they love, like with Abita’s Purple Haze or DFH’s Miles Davis Bitches Brew. I haven’t seen the Mmmhops American Pale Ale made by Hanson, though I hear it’s an okay enough beer. Lagunitas released a number of Frank Zappa- inspired brews a few years ago, which were actually quite good. Music and beer complement each other nicely, and with the right pairing of themes, the two can play well together. Several years ago, a collaboration of music and beer yielded The Trooper by Robinsons Brewery in the UK. Supposedly developed by vocalist Bruce Dickinson and based on the song of the same name, which is, in turn, based on The Charge of the Light Brigade, this brew has a lot of inspiration behind it. The Trooper is a pale ale, a nice English bitter, that falls on the lighter side with bittersweet malts, crisp hops and a rich copper color. To be honest, it’s about what I expected from the bottle. Maybe it’s me, but I would expect a beer named after a metal band to have a little more kick to it. It’s only 4.7%, so it’s very sessionable, but I expected something a little more hardcore.

  • Time for Change
    I GREATER MANCHESTER SEPTEMBER I986 GHANGEABTE ISSUE NUMBER 8 TIME FOR CHANGE THE lieensing laws in this country have long been a subject of contention in CAMRA, now we have been joined by the Berni and Host Group in the campaign for flexible licensing hours. The above mentioned group have gone to a lot of time and trouble to produce a nicely printed leaflet laying out the case for such a change. Such a move is welcomed by CAMRA. ln case you are unaware of the arguments for flexible hours, here is a summary. The licensing laws currently in force in England and Wales date from an emergency temporary measure introduced while the First World War was raging and was designed to prevent excessive drinking by munitions workers. A system of "permitted hours" was consolidated In the 1921 Licensing Act and remains largely unchanged to this day. Pubs in England and Wales are generally allowed to serve alcohol for nine or nine and a half hours a day with an enforced afternoon break. All the evidence produced over the past twenty years points towards a relaxation in our licensing laws. The'Erroll' Report in 1972 and the'Clayson' Report in 1973 came down strongly in favour of change. A number of national surveys, public opinion polls, the brewing and licensee industry and the Tourist Board have all continually favoured change. Even the Police and Justices'Clerks'Society are in favour of change. The most overwhelming evidence in favour in recent times has been the report on the Scottish experience - the result of implementation of the Clayson Committee report of 1973.
