Drink % Brewery
Castle Bitter 3.5 Jennings Brewery

A distinctively darker bitter, with a really moreish taste and a very drinkable strength – it makes the ideal session beer

Tasting Notes: 

Cumberland 4.0 Jennings Brewery

A superb golden coloured ale, brewed with English pale Ale malt and using only the finest English aromatic hops. Traditionally brewed using pure Lakeland water drawn from the brewery’s own well

Tasting Notes: Deep, golden, hoppy, spicy bitter

Spitfire Amber 4.2 Shepherd Neame

The beer is named after the legendary Spitfire aeroplane designed by RJ Mitchell. The versatility of the aircraft and the courage of its pilots were essential to victory and were a key symbol of the spirit of that time.

Tasting Notes: An infusion of three Kentish hops adorns this beautifully balanced, blood-orange tinted British bitter with an acutely aromatic allure. Hints of marmalade, red grapes and pepper are thrust from a springboard of warm, mellow malts. The floating fruity finish signs off with a smidgen of spice and raspberry.
