A silky-smooth premium ale, Horndean Special Bitter was originally the flagship beer of Gales Brewery in Hampshire. First launched in 1959, it's still brewed with the same passion and pride today - and the age-old recipe continues to go down a storm. Brewed with the finest malt and hops, HSB imparts the rich, soft-fruit flavours of traditional Dundee cake. It's a tawny, russet coloured beer, with malt and raisin on the nose - and a gentle sweetness that lingers long into the silky smooth finish.

Vegan friendly.

Vocation

This collaboration with Edinburgh's Vault City starts life as a classic stout recipe of extra pale, extra dark crystal, Munich and chocolate malts, plus jumbo oats to give a smooth and silky mouthfeel, especially when pulled through a sparkler. Into that we've added muscavado sugar and 300kg of real banana to further round out the mouthfeel, and create layers of creamy banana custard, chewy cookie dough and cheesecake flavour.

Moscatel BA Barleywine - 8.7%
Moscatel BA Barleywine
Iron Pier
8.7% abv
A Barleywine based on a historic Truman’s recipe using a vast amount of Goldings hops. The resulting beer has a rich, sweet malt and fruit cake character with notes of honey and biscuit which is countered by a big firm bitterness. Our twist - then aged for 2 years in Moscatel barrels. The result is an added complexity, with oaky, vinous notes, but with the huge character of the original base beer still shining through.
