Drink % Brewery
Bitter Sweet Symphony 6.8 Dawkins Ales - CLOSED

A fan of extreme craft beers, this ale has a vast quantity of malt and hops; the mash tun was be brim full! Rich and full-flavoured; an ale to savour.

Tasting Notes: Caramel tones followed up with balanced hoppiness and a long finish.

Bob Wall 4.2 Dawkins Ales - CLOSED

Cask; Regular. A Best Bitter, chestnut-coloured with a subtle orange bouquet combined with a hint of roast malt.

Tasting Notes: It has a rich and complex malt flavour, with plum fruit qualities, which persist in the mouth and combine with its bitterness to provide a deep and satisfying finish.

Davy Lamp 5.0 Dawkins Ales - CLOSED

A crystal-clear Wheat Ale, rich yellow in colour, brewed with the addition of coriander and orange zest.

Tasting Notes: Coriander adds a delicate hint of spice to the citrus hop aroma and creates a deep and satisfying warmth in this ale’s mildly bitter finish. The tang of orange zest complements the wheat and barley malts’ biscuit and vanilla notes, producing a well-balanced and highly quaffable ale.

Night Moves 4.0 Kelham Island Brewery

A Chocolate Orange Mild brewed in conjunction with Sheffield CAMRA.

Tasting Notes: 

Pit Head Porter 4.4 Dawkins Ales - CLOSED

A dark reddish-black porter that draws you in with a tempting aroma combining roast malt with classic English hops.

Tasting Notes: Some initial sweetness gives way to a mouthful of berry fruit and roast malt flavours and a well-rounded bitter finish.

Shepherds Delight 4.0 Lincolnshire Craft Beers Ltd

A golden hued hoppy beer with gentle maltiness and a refreshingly dry aftertaste. Perfect for drinking as the sun goes down, whatever the season.

Tasting Notes: Malty, dry

Totty Pot 4.5 Cheddar Ales

Multi Gold medal-winning bottle-conditioned Dark Porter with hints of roasted coffee and a creamy malt finish.

Tasting Notes: Brewed using the highest quality Pale Ale, Maris Otter, Chocolate, Crystal and Roasted Malts and hopped with a blend of English Northdown and Goldings whole hops.

Welsh Black 4 Snowdon Craft Beer

Rich, dark and full of malt flavours, this black bitter owes its characteristics to the large amount of chocolate malt giving it a velvety smooth rich coffee finish.

Tasting Notes: Chocolate, coffee, malty
