Porterhouse:

Porterhouse decided to release Stay At Home Isolation IPA to show their support to front line medical staff and all profits from the sales will be donated to ‘Feed The Heroes’ who support front line workers by ensuring they get nutritious meals as they work longer shifts and have little time or facilities to prepare food.

Porterhouse Wrassler XXX Stout (4.6% ABV) – Made to a recipe originally brewed by Deasy’s of West Cork in the early 1900s. This was Michael Collins’ favourite tipple – a stout like your grandfather used to drink. A fine fulsome stout, full in every way, a pungent aroma of late kettle hops. A generous quantity of roast grain for flavour, bitter with flaked barley producing that rich body.  Shane from Ireland Craft Beverages & Andreas from Porterhouse Breweries will be joining us Friday.

Firebrand Helles (4.4% ABV) Fresh, crisp, clean and refreshing, Firebrand Hells Beach lager uses Cascade hops for a subtle citrus flavour perfect for drinking at the beach or on your couch!

Brewed with a combination of  modern and traditional techniques, the Cascade hops and a long lagering in the tank produce a delicious zesty flavour. Fragrant and aromatic, Firebrand Brewery use all-natural ingredients for great depth and drinkability. Ben from Firebrand will be joining Friday night.

 
Ampersand UIPA (2.9% ABV) – Ampersand is a small brewery based in South Norfolk brewing seasonal beers that best showcase the ingredients and our skills as a modern progressive brewery.  Their philosophy is simple, produce the beer they want to drink to the best standard possible. 
 
µIPA is a micro IPA, packed with big IPA levels of late and dry hops to punch above its weight.  A careful blend of malts and Vermont yeast makes this pale ale taste fuller than the abv suggests and provides a good backbone for the punchy hops.  Ampersand are yet to confirm who will be joining us for the party!

Innis and Gunn Frank and Sense (5.8% ABV) – Three wise guys from Innis and Gunn : Ken, Dougal and Fergus, came together to brew a festive beer with a difference. Arms ladled with Gold, Frankincense and Myrrh, they began their experimenting and with a little guidance from the big guy, Frank & Sense was born.  This is a golden ale with a malt character packed full of lovely hope.  This Celestial brew has been elevated to a different plain by the addition of three of the oldest ingredients in the book. Innis and Gunn have yet to confirm if they will be joining us on Friday night.

 
Ter Dolen Kriek (4.5% ABV) – Ter Dolen Kriek is an unfiltered and top fermented beer. It is brewed with sour cherry juice, two varieties of hops and one variety of malt and wheat. A sweet, fruit beer finishingwith spicy notes, including coriander and orange peel. Unfortunately due to it’s popularity this beer is sold out in a few days, but we are expecting more stock within the next couple of weeks. 
 
Happy Birthday Simon – Let’s Party!
