Craft brew legends. Over 30 years of great beers, including the UK's first single hopped Citra ale.
Someone say cask-aged coffee porter?
We probably just imagined it, but as it happens we do have some casks of Hell Bent (5.0%) available - if anyone fancies it?

Junkyard is a must-try for those curious about British hops. Bramling Cross, Jester® and Olicana® come together to create a spicy and aromatic ale with fantastic bitterness. Demand it at your local, if they don't already have it stocked!!

We welcomed Jessica Martinez and Sergio Hernandez from Cerveceria Malteza, Mexico to brew Maltezer Session IPA (4.8%) with us for the overseas brewer part of the Wetherspoon Spring Festival (4-15 March).
Cascade, Citra and Amarillo combine with a liberal infusion of hibiscus flowers.

And the great cycle of casks continues - washed, filled, delivered... then returned to go through the process over again.

We still have limited quantities of our seasonal Pendulum available. This delightful, sessionable pale is hopped with UK Goldings and Challenger for a floral, herbal flavour with restrained citrus notes. A charming beer, in our humble opinion.

Trade pals - cask aged Skyline is available now. This 5.0% IPA has towering spicy citrus characteristics of Cascade, enhanced by the tropical pineapple, passionfruit and herbal hints of Nectaron® - all lifted yet further by the aromatic grape and gooseberry notes of Nelson Sauvin™.

High praise indeed from @proftimf.bsky.social! He tried The Final Cut, John Bryan's sign off brew after an illustrious 30 year career with Oakham Ales.
It's the fifth part of John's series of beers based on Kipling's 1888 short story, The Man Who Would Be King, which he began brewing in 2005.

Big brewing means big kit. The brewery yard can take on the appearance of a shuttle launch site, if you hit it from the right angle.
