A refreshing, sessionable, hazy pale ale to be shared, which shows our love for hops and the pursuit of pale perfection. With a simple malt base and hopped generously with Mosaic, Centennial and Citra it bursts forth with resinous notes of sticky mandarin, grapefruit. It finishes crisp and clean with a soft, pithy bitterness.

Jaipur - 5.9%

A citrus dominated India Pale Ale, its immediate impression is soft and smooth yet builds to a crescendo of massive hoppiness accentuated by honey. An enduring, bitter finish.

Ross On Wye

6.2% abv

2022 Dabinett blended with 2023 Browns, Foxwhelp and Somerset Redstreak. This is a cider reminiscent of a summer storm, packed full of fruit flavour with grapes and orange squash smashing into your taste buds like a tidal wave. Very good astringency from heritage cider apples makes it full bodied with a lasting taste while there is just enough acidity from Browns and Foxwhelp to refresh and quench like rain after a heatwave.

Carousel - 5.2%

Carousel

Pilton

5.2% abv

A dry Somerset cider blended by the team at Left Handed Giant Brewing in collaboration with Pilton Cider. Full whole juice, richly flavoured but still easy drinking, it is a blend of multiple ciders, lightened with just a touch of low tannin dessert fruit.

Pale Rider - 5.2%

Pale Rider

Kelham Island

5.2% abv

A pale ale forged from the finest Maris Otter malt and a special blend of American hops. The nose is of fresh citrus and berry fruits with a smooth juicy malt character and deceptively moreish finish that belies its strength. Vegan friendly.
