A long-time favourite for Thornbridge drinkers, and one of our earliest recipes, Brother Rabbit is our core golden ale offering in cask.

A recirculated wort cooling process in the hop back, three stage dry hop process and a soft water profile makes Session IPA a modern-style juicy and hoppy pale.

Dab Con One - 7.5%

Dab Con One

Torkard

7.5% abv

A 1:1 mix of ripe Dabinett bittersweet apples and very ripe Conference pears which were milled and fermented together. So therefore this is a "Pider". We decided to experiment a little with this ferment and use the QA23 cultured yeast rather than the wild yeast ferment we normally use. This has left a level of residual sweetness which suits the lightness of this pider from the pears and the soft light tannins from the cider apples.
