CLOUDWATER

Picture
PROPER DIPA: SABRO
Using a yeast that’s thousands of generations old, Cloudwater are thrilled to be updating their popular early DIPA recipes with a fresh take.
This time they’ve used the distinctive and bold hop Sabro from the States, which has massive flavours of coconut, creamy vanilla, sweet lime and tropical fruits balanced with a resinous finish.

POHJALA

Picture
BERRY GOOD
A jammy triple fruited sour ale brewed with blackberries, blueberries and raspberries.
An initial jammy sweetness saturates the senses, as though biting into a juicy berry picked during peak season. Gentle acidity rounds out the taste, adding brightness to the beer, which further accentuates the jammy fruit character and brings forth the biscuity malt body.

A decadent, well-hopped porter, with notes of chocolate, roasty malt, and a gentle fruity finish. Perfect for fireside Christmas drinking, but also able to follow the Reinheitsgebot...

TWO FLINTS

BIG BELLA
Two Flints are thrilled to share with you their third biiig DIPA, Bella. This time they’ve gone for Nelson Sauvin and Motukea, plus a complex and innovative underpinning of hop products including a Hop Unlock thiolised yeast, Freestyle Super Sauvin (Nelson Sauvin with Phantasm powder) and Nelson Sauvin Hop Kief. They've played around with water and grist leaving a super soft, fluffy and drinkable DIPA. We're getting huge aromas of grape, Jolly Ranchers, strawberry laces, gooseberry and overripe mango.

LILO

This soft and luscious hazy pale is straw blonde in colour and packed with Citra and a touch of Azacca. We’re getting peach rings, pineapple chunks and a hint of dankness to balance the intense tropical fruit. Imagine yourself aimlessly floating around on a Lilo in still, serene tropical waters, with a can in hand. Bliss.

​GRIZZLY

Clapton Craft have backed Two Flints since day one, so they were buzzing to get them down for a brew day and create a punchy west coast pale inspired by their iconic bear logo. Grizzly has a backbone of Pilsner malt combined with a touch of Vienna for perceived sweetness to give this easy drinker a solid base for the hops to shine. A lethal combo of Simcoe and Rakau provide fresh pineapple, apricot and zingy passion fruit whilst a small Chinook dry hop addition adds a touch of pine. An assertive but smooth bitterness, Grizzly is one to sink your claws into.

HE CAN PLAY THE HONKY TONK LIKE ANYTHING
Check out my fruit gose. It’s got all the fruits. Guava...

LEFTY SCISSORS
Why do you consider Sabro your enemy? It stabbed you in your back with creamy coconut, and complex citrus and tropical notes? And that hint of mint? Well Citra Cryo and a huge dose of Vic Secret take the lead here, and Sabro adds all of that flavour with delicate precision, balancing out the whole affair beautifully. Not on board? I don’t care. Why should I? Nobody else does.

CLARKY CAT
Guaranteed not to make you feel like a fortnight in a bad balloon or like a piano dentist, and you certainly won’t end up in a quack candle. It’s not a dog, it’s a drink. Cat? No drink. Citra, Strata and Mosaic double dry hopped pale.

OVERTONE

Picture
PARABOL
This imperial stout was brewed with 11 types of malts including chocolate wheat and coffee malt then finished with Belgian candy syrup. The beer was then aged in American bourbon barrels for 12 months before being conditioned on Cacao Nibs.

PLACES OF LIGHT

A bright pale ale based on the same hop-bill as one of Overtone's classic IPAs, Northern Hemisphere. A strong tropical aroma matching the immediate tropical flavour hit, with some enjoyable subtle spice and bitter notes to finish. 

HONEY POP

Transforming one of their highest rated TIPAs, Heavy Pop, into their honey DIPA series. The hop bill provides a juicy blend of passion fruit, sweet berries, papaya and a slight twist of bubblegum while Scottish honey adds a subtle honey flavour and a lot smoothness.

JUKE BOX HERO

Overtone's first time experimenting with CGX hops called for the experts. Northern Monk joined them to brew this exciting juicy number using Idaho 7 and Strata in CGX form to intensify all flavours from their original pellet form. On a thick juicy based, Idaho 7 CGX enhances a balance of tropical and piney flavours while Strata CGX promises passion fruit, strawberry and some "Rock Concert Cannabis" notes.

PUGET SOUND

A westie with a modern hop twist. Meridian adds some brightness to theis citrus-charged beer while Sultana maintains a strong traditional piney character. Mosaic hops throw in an enjoyable dankness with some light bitterness.

NORTHERN HEMISPHERE

One of Overtone's flagship IPAs with strong malt bill of white wheat and oats providing a creamy mouthfeel. Huge flavours of juicy tropical fruits and some bursts of fresh citrus.

PLAYING ROBOTS

A smooth drinking DIPA with a strong aroma of pineapple and lime zest. Flavours of passion fruit, lemon and peach burst through the dominance of sweet pineapple.

GOLD 'N' GOSE

A triple exotic fruited gose with Golden Berry, Prickly Pear and Passion Fruit, Blackthorn Sea Salt and Indian Coriander Seeds. Crisp, tart, sparkling and tangy.

​PORRIDGE ON THE RADIO

A proper stout with 12 different malts to create depth, but at an easy going 6% to allow for a nice long session as we greet colder weather. Sweet, deep and rich, but with a cleaner less viscous finish than you’d expect.
