Dizzy Blonde

Robinsons

3.8% abv

Known at the brewery as Peggy, this Dizzy Blonde is great fun, great company, and often the centre of attention.

She's a zesty, vibrant ale with wild, aromatic, invigorating Amarillo hops...and a crisp, dry finish.

Plum Porter - 4.9%

Plum Porter

Titanic

4.9% abv

This beer is dark strong and well rounded; the richness of such a rotund beer is brought to an even keel by the late addition of Goldings hops and natural plum flavouring. Take the opportunity and go for the low hanging fruit, this sumptuous beer really is a plum!

Neck Oil

Beavertown

4.3% abv

We wanted to create a light, crisp, punchy, go to beer! A beer that you know you can pick up and appreciate or simply get it down ya neck. Extra pale base malts are used to keep it crisp and give the hops a great platform to dance on. Masses of hop additions during the whirlpool and a huge dose of dry hops make this a brilliantly 'easy' IPA.

Helles Lager Bier - 4.6%

Helles Lager Bier

Robinsons

4.6% abv

Our Helles is triple hopped; meaning the hops are added in three stages. We begin with a specially selected premium European lager yeast and a mix of classic Bavarian Noble, Hallertau and Mittelfruh hops. We throw in some Perle for a little bittering, then Tettnang and Hersbrucker hops to add character. During fermentation, we add some Saaz for an earthy and floral hint. Finally, the Mandarina Bavaria hop is added to give an extra subtle kick of lemon complexity to the taste and aroma. Sweetness balanced with a light hop bitterness, bright and effervescent, clean and crisp, it's the epitome of a thirst-quenching lager bier. Expertly crafted, effortlessly smooth.
