BLACK IRIS BREWERY

Sabbath Double Dark Mild

Black Iris have teamed up with Abyss Brewing to spawn this dark beauty! This beer has a deep, complex malt base featuring Maris Otter, Light Munich, Torrified Wheat and a variety of crystal malts for a robust nutty flavour. With the addition of invert sugar No2 and a 2hr boil the caramel notes have developed even further. Hopped entirely with English whole leaf varieties, Challenger and Bramling Cross, they’ve really pushed the hedgerow berry character and the spicy, bitter finish.

BREWPOINT

Anchorman

A modern, fresh and fruity cask beer brewed using a blend of contemporary English ingredients with American late-hopping. This blockbusting beer begins with a gentle malt sweetness, leading to a lingering, bitter finish.

The story behind the name… Josephine is the unsung hero of our story and the love of Charlie’s life. In the same way, he was her ‘Anchorman’. Charlie is central to our brewing story, a dependable family-man with a visionary outlook. With Josephine by his side, the wind was in his sails and a family brewing business became firmly anchored in Bedford. Well

A balanced bitter, brewed in Bedford, rooted in Wells’ legacy. Gentle biscuit malt sweetness followed by toffee and caramel notes perfectly balanced with clean, snappy bitterness from all English hops. A proper pub session ale with depth, drinkability and a satisfying, morish finish.

A celebration of a 150-year brewing legacy remaining independent, family run and proudly Bedford.

BREW YORK

Poisoned Chalice

Introducing Poisoned Chalice, brewed in collaboration with York Minster to mark the 800th anniversary of William of York.

A crisp, balanced traditional best bitter, it combines toasty malt, gentle caramel sweetness and Brew York’s hallmark hoppy character.

CHILTERN BREWERY

Beechwood Bitter

The brewery flagship – a hearty and well-rounded beer.”

Mid amber colour with a rich butter-toffee aroma. Fruity and slightly nutty. Premium quality pale ale malt, with an extra proportion of crystal malt, and increased hops, gives this beer its renowned ‘nutty’ flavour and punch. Very much a cruiserweight, it catches up with you unawares! First brewed in 1982, the beer takes its name from the numerous beech trees synonymous with the area.

ENVILLE ALES

Simpkiss Bitter

Simpkiss Bitter was previously brewed by J P Simpkiss & Son in Brierley Hill as Simpkiss Ale. Sadly, the Dennis brewery closed in 1985 but is warmly remembered by older drinkers in the West Midlands. A taste to remember and one you won’t forget. That’s why Enville bought the recipe!

HARVEY'S BREWERY

Pells Pale

Pells Pale draws its name from the Sussex word ‘Pell,’ meaning a large body of water. Sussex Spring Water, which also nourishes the local Pells Pool Lido and beauty spots in Lewes, is a defining element of Harvey’s beers.

MALLINSONS BREWING CO

Steady the Ship

Vibrant gold with subtle notes of orange zest in the aroma, a good balanced bitterness which showcases the hint of resin often associated with Columbus hops. Deceptively sessionable for its ABV.

Donated by John Myerscough

NETHERGATE BREWERY

Wild Fox

Wild Fox is one of those seasonals that always turns heads when it makes a return. Bright and straw-coloured in the glass, it’s brewed with a mix of Boadicea, Azacca, Amarillo and Cascade hops for a layered, modern pale ale.

Expect soft floral notes from the British Boadicea, a tropical lift from Azacca, citrus zest from Amarillo, and Cascade’s signature grapefruit twist — all coming together in a smooth, balanced finish that’s as moreish as they come.

Crisp, light, and quietly adventurous — a seasonal worth hunting down.

Donated by The Mermaid

NEW RIVER BREWERY

Lost River

Sometimes described as one of London’s “lost rivers”, the New River glides silently into London, often hidden from passers-by, particularly where it tunnels beneath the streets. This delicately dry hopped, pale straw coloured beer is, similarly, wonderfully discrete and easily swallowed up, so the name is a perfect fit!

Donated by The Ver Valley Society

NORTHERN MONK

Sup

Pours an amber gold with an off white finger thick head that leaves no lacing. The smell is lightly hoppy , with a little citrus loitering and the taste follows this with a heft of sweet malt included. The mouthfeel is decent with medium carbonation.
Overall, a good low abv beer , at 3.4% this doesn’t suffer of the flavour front at all. Quaffable, malt heavy and without much notable bitterness this is very easy to drink.

Donated by The Great Northern Pub & Kitchen

OAKHAM ALES

Inferno

A light golden beer with a big personality, bursting with fruity hop flavours, citrus notes and a refreshing finish.

First brewed as a seasonal special in 2004, this marvellously refreshing beer joined the Oakham core range in 2008.

STRANGERS BREWING

New Shoots

New Shoots is named after its not-so-secret ingredient; the fresh tips from larch, spruce and pine trees, gathered in the spring and added to the beer. Young conifer tips give fresh grassy and citrus notes (as well as light piney, resinous flavours), and these align beautifully with the American hop varieties we’ve used. Wonderfully quaffable in the sunshine.

This beer is brewed with barley malt, but has been crafted to remove any gluten present in the finished beer. Independent testing shows that the beer is verified gluten free.
