Core Range

• Lise Bohemian Pilsner
  This Czech Premium Pale Lager abounds with malt and hop character. It is a big lager balanced by a smooth and clean bitterness derived from Green Bullet hops.

• Australian Pale Ale
  In the Great Aussie Tradition, this Australian Pale Ale is easy drinking with a hint of bittering hops and a mild malt profile. This makes it perfect for enjoying on warm summer days as well as by the fire on cool winter evenings. A great session ale. 5.0%ABV
• Weizen: Bavarian Wheat Beer
  This Hefeweizen is made using a traditional double decoction method to produce a characteristic sweet wort, which when combined with German noble hops and Bavarian yeast produces an exceptional Bavarian white beer brimming with pleasant spice and fruit notes. Enjoy it unfiltered and traditionally cloudy.

• Extra Special Bitter
  Based on the local fare of Gloucestershire UK, this ESB is well balanced with bitterness slightly dominating over an earthy hop presence.

• Batch 42 English IPA

  Don’t Panic! Batch 42 English IPA has joined our core range! Goldings, Fuggles, Pacifica and Green Bullet hops combine to make a delightful English IPA. A hop driven bitterness with earth, pine and herbal notes is balanced by a solid malt backbone delivering a pleasantly dry English India Pale Ale with a twist. A great brownian motion beverage for your next party.
  

• Oatmeal Stout
  Our stout is made in the classic English style with rolled oats. A prolonged mash and easy boil brings out the character of the roasted barley and black malt with a hint of coffee liqueur.
  A lighter style stout with a full and silky mouth feel delivers a satisfying and perplexing ale. 5.0%ABV
  
• American Brown Ale
  The roots of this style lie with American home brewers who brew it with a big malt presence.
  This American Brown Ale has a malt chocolate punch with a hint of coffee. The lightly hopped fruity character allows the malt to stand out.
  The full bodied warming feel of this brown ale is reflected in its ruby tinged darkness. Unfiltered of course. 5.5%ABV
• Good Witch Rye Blonde
  This malt driven American Pale has been given a fresh twist with the addition of Southern Hemisphere hops. The rye malt adds a tart and creamy finish, which combined with the citrus and passionfruit character of the hops delivers a clean and balanced summer ale. Now available all year round. 5.5%ABV

Seasonals

Our Pavlova and California Common (Steam) ale are proving themselves as great beers for every season. Both are still on tap – last kegs, though.

Pavlova NZ IPA

The final keg of the third batch is now on tap. Each batch is different with all of them being awesome.

Pavlova. New Zealand or Australian? Made with 3 unique New Zealand hops and Victorian malt, our Pavlova NZ IPA is a little of both. Brewed in the style of an American IPA with a neutral yeast, the hops rule to make a light and crisp ale full of peach, passion fruit and plum. A dash of Munich brings a toast malt balance.

California Common

Our California Common Steam Ale returns for Autumn.

Our Steam Ale is single hopped with Northern Brewer, lending a mild fruit and wood character. The locally malted grain gives a bright copper hue with refreshing toast notes. True to style, the specialty yeast provides a crisp, dry finish with a pleasant and lingering after taste.

Cross the bridge, enjoy.

A hint of orange rind from Pacifica hops adds complexity to the familiar earth and spice notes of the traditional English noble hops used in the style.
Fewer hops are used keeping the beer balanced with a smooth and clean malty bitterness.
