Bristol Beer Factory, Bristol, Avon (2004)

Dove From Above 5.0%
NEW: Eureka hops paired with French Aramis as a Dual Hop Series beer. Aramis, like Eureka, is full of aroma but very different from the dank, resinous Eureka and the two should create a unique blend of flavours. A lot of Amber and Cara malt in the malt bill for this one to give a deep golden colour and added biscuity notes to this unique Pale Ale.

Bristol Beer Factory, Bristol, Avon (2004) collaboration with
Tiny Rebel, Newport, Gwent (2012)

Sugar Plum Shake 5.0%
LIMITED EDITION / UNFINED: Brewed at BBF. 200kg of natural plum adds that tart hit with the addition of Lactose to follow, bringing that sweet touch. US hops contribute light citrus notes with a complex malt bill to provide that depth. Brewed to intrigue and enjoy.

Burning Sky, West Firle, East Sussex (2013)

Aurora Australis 5.6%
LIMITED EDITION: Premium strength pale ale with a satisfying blend of malts to provide a juicy backbone and a pale amber colour. Based on Aurora but the US hops are replaced by their Antipodean cousins. Big citrus & tropical fruit flavours, which are prominent, yet well balanced.

Cellar Head, Framfield, E. Sussex (2017)

Sub Three 2.7%
NEW/UNFINED: Packed with flavour, courtesy of a full and rounded malt bill, consisting of Munich and Dark Crystal with the addition of oats, giving biscuity and toffee notes and a rich red hue to the beer. Triple hopped with Challenger and Bramling Cross to provide a light freshness and a gentle finish.

Autumn Pale Ale 4.5%
NEW/UNFINED: This pale ale has an unexpected rich autumn hue with aroma’s of roasted hazelnut and ripe plums, leaving flavours of spiced berries and finishing with a firm bitterness. Hops: Fuggle, Bullion

Armistace Ale 5.0%
LIMITED EDITION/UNFINED: Strictly a one-off, based on an ‘occasional’ ale brewed by Fremlin’s on 11th November 1918 – and, with a little artistic licence, reborn 100 years later. The malts may differ slightly as the maltsters listed bare no records anymore. The hops are, at best, a guess but as 75% of Kent hops were a Fuggle back then, I say it’s a pretty good bet, also helped along with a dash of Kent Goldings. What better way to commemorate the sacrifice of our great grandfathers and grandmothers than with a fine traditional English Bitter.

Cullercoats Brewery, Wallsend, Tyne & Wear (2011)

Shuggy Boat Blonde 3.8%
A multi award winning refreshing, blonde beer made with Challenger, Bramling Cross and Cascade English hops. Smooth, fresh and highly drinkable!

Electric Bear, Bath, Somerset (2015)

Ohm Sweet Ohm 3.8%
New: A straw coloured pale, with aromas of clementines, grapefruit and melon. Soft water chemistry paired with an elegant malt bill make for a really easy drinking pale that finishes with a light and breezy bitterness. Low ABV, big flavour!

Errant Brewery, Newcastle upon Tyne, Tyne & Wear (2015)

Tears In Rain 4.4%
UNFINED: This winter, Azacca and Simcoe collide in this smooth oat pale, weighing in at a sessionable 4.4%, but with a much punchier hop profile, it’s a perfect counter to heavy winter beers.

Fisher’s Brewing Company, High Wycombe, Bucks (2017)

Honey Amber 4.2%
NEW: A complex grain bill including honey and aromatic malt, should be a really rich, malt-forward twist on a best bitter.

Considering its unique style this beer is extremely easy drinking and very more-ish.

Great North Eastern Brewing, Dunston, Gateshead, Tyne & Wear (2018)

Great North Eastern Gold 4.0%
Brewed using only US hops, this beer is pungently flavoured and very sessionable.

Howling Hops, Hackney, E9 (2013)

Ilkley Brewery, Ilkley, West Yorkshire (2009)
