Lightly hopped with Brambling Cross and at a very sessionable 3.6 %, this Ruby mild is not to be missed
The original session beer, Ordinary Bitters formed a cornerstone of English drinking culture.

Delicate hop aromas of pine, spice and dark fruits are followed by a smooth, full bodied palate with notes of biscuit and caramel.
Brewed with a blend of the heritage malt Chevallier and German Vienna malt, the Sticke Bier is our Anglo/American interpretation of the stronger, bolder Altbiers of Dusseldorf. Brewed in collaboration with our friends DC Brau, from Washington DC.

A generous helping of cara-pilsner malt in the mash gives this beer its delectably smooth roasted flavour, together with subtle hints of caramel and toffee on the tongue. Gently bittered with Admiral and Centennial and a late addition of Bullion brings a smattering of dark fruit notes and spice to complement classic, warm, earthy undertones.
Notes of dried fruit, roasted coffee and caramel are balanced by creamy oats, giving this stout it’s characteristic smooth and luxurious mouthfeel. Vegan friendly.

Our take on the classic London Porter, brewed with a blend of seven different malts for body, richness and complexity. Packed full of indulgent chocolate, caramel and coffee notes — Market Porter is a modern classic.
