LIST OF ALES (2024)
Bests & Bitters
Cwtch (Tiny Rebel) 4.6%
Probably the best word ever. Cwtch (rhymes with butch) can mean either cuddle or cubbyhole. Grab a glass, relax and cwtch up with this untraditional Welsh red ale - a perfect blend of six caramelly malts and three citrussy American hops. It isn’t your average bitter - the hops do more to this deep amber coloured beer than just provide bite. Any old hop can do that! We’ve selected some of the most aromatic and tangy hops from the other side of the pond to give this red a fresh hit that complements the caramel flavours of the malts that gives this beer its colour. Drinkability and balance makes this beer. We love a good Cwtch, we’re not the only one. Edited by RAB
Time Lapse (Good Chemistry) 3.4%
We’ve gone back to our roots for this one and brewed a classic English bitter. Sitting in a pub with a pint of cask bitter is one of our favourite things to do. It’s part of a grand tradition of pub life that stretches back generations in this country. We want to celebrate those traditions with this beer, so we ferment it in our open top tanks with a fruity, top-cropping English yeast. All the hops are British East Kent Goldings. This style of beer isn’t a showy scene-stealer, and nor should it be. It’s a beer brewed to accompany conversation and laughter, and always brewed for cask.
Padley (Thornbridge) 3.4%
Padley Gorge is a beautiful spot in the Peak District and a favourite place for walkers and paddlers with its gentle streams and waterfalls. The best way to follow up a great day out in the Peaks is with a visit to a welcoming pub, for a great pint of cask beer. With all this in mind, we felt the name Padley perfectly suited our classic Bitter. It pours a deep copper in colour with a light caramel aroma, a rounded mouthfeel with orange and floral notes on the palate and a gentle bitterness in the finish.
Bitter #3 (Three Legs) 4.2%
Our house Best Bitter. A complex malt base with Abbey malt and Carared from Weyermann brings raisin, fruitcake and biscuit.
