Titanic

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!

Spitting Feathers

A sweet porter that delivers a fresh, modern take on the beer style that one dominated British brewing. An authentic Victorian recipe is paired with the addition of whole raisins in the mash as a precursor to the fresh pureed plum in the final stages. The result is a finely balanced blend of mellow dark malts with a subtle red glow and hoppy aromas that compliment a sweet yet delicate fruity nose. Gluten free and vegan friendly.
