Is it even Easter without a delightfully buttered Hot Cross Bun for tea? Our brewers loved this one, messing around with a few malts we don’t normally have on hand, to create an IPA we think is just fabulous. Filled with both cinnamon and currants on the nose, you’ll know you’re going to get the same taste - just don’t dip actual buns into another IPA when we run out of these ones. Vegan friendly.

Polly's

A straight up two-hop showcase of Citra and Galaxy, the brief on this pale ale is pretty straight up and simple - juice.

Dark and creamy; this decadent but session-strength stout is fit for a king in his castle. Using a combination of dark malts and lots of oats, we've created a beer with a smooth mouthfeel which balances perfectly with the subtle roasted notes of coffee and chocolate. Using modern brewing techniques we have then added nitrogen to the kegs for that picture-perfect stout pour. Previously called The Void Stares Back.
