Frontier Premium Lager 4.5
Bengal Lancer 5.0 Fuller's Brewery

Inspired by the classic India Pale Ales of times gone by, Fuller’s Bengal Lancer redefines Eastern promise. With a full-bodied flavour and spicy character, it’s an IPA that grabs the reins and leads from the front.

Tasting Notes: Conjuring a landscape of sandstorms and sunsets, Bengal Lancer pours a pale amber colour. On the palate, orange, character is followed by floral and spicy notes from the hops – riding through to a satisfying finish of mild bitterness. Great with a curry, Bengal Lancer cuts through to refresh the palate and add its own gentle touch of spice.

Festivity 5.0 Bath Ales

Festivity (5.0% vol) is a wonderful winter brew, brilliantly brewed using floor-malted Maris Otter barley and roasted chocolate malt, together with Challenger and Bramling Cross hops from Kent. Festivity contains wheat and barley malt.

Tasting Notes: With hints of rum mingling with coffee and vanilla flavours, Festivity is a truly wonderful old-style seasonal porter.

Tasting Notes: A deliciously different pint, Firecracker is the first Gales beer to be brewed with real spices.

Guinness Draught 4.2 Guinness

One of the world's best-loved beers, with sweet smelling aromas of coffee and malt, from the first velvety sip to the last, lingering drop, every deep-dark satisfying mouthful in between is pure beauty… pure Guinness.

Tasting Notes: Unmistakeably GUINNESS®, from the first velvet sip to the last, lingering drop and every deep-dark satisfying mouthful in between.

Hophead 3.8 Dark Star Brewing Co.

An extremely clean-drinking pale golden ale with a strong floral aroma and elderflower notes from the Cascade hops. This beer is full-bodied and full-flavoured yet gentle enough to make it a favourite session beer.

Tasting Notes: 

Peroni, Nastro Azzurro 5.1 Miller Brands UK

Brewed from the finest spring planted barley malts, Peroni has a unique balanced taste with a delicate aroma arising from the hops of the most exclusive varieties.

Tasting Notes: Bright and light golden coloured with a pure white frothy head.

Red Fox 4.3 Fuller's Brewery

First seen in autumn 1999, Fuller’s Red Fox is back on the bars this year with that same rich, red ruby colour and toasted oats flavour that make it the perfect pint for the season of mists and mellow fruitfulness.

Tasting Notes: Tawny in colour with a lasting, medium, off-white head of lacy bubbles, Red Fox features a little yeast and forest fruit on the nose and offers a taste of biscuit and caramel with the tang of blackberry, toast and marmalade in the finish.

Session IPA 4
ESB 5.5 Fuller's Brewery

Our extra-special Bitter

Tasting Notes: Rich mahogany in colour, ESB tempts with aromas of orange marmalade, balanced by soft malt toffee. The hops impart grassy, peppery notes alongside hints of citrus fruit – while the Pale Ale and Crystal malts bring distinctive biscuity flavours. A smooth, delicate bitterness lingers on the palate to give a supreme finish.

Montana Red Rye Ale 4.5 Fuller's Brewery

Montana - known the world over for its wild, natural beauty. A place where rugged earth forges mountain peaks and waterfalls, and where all manner of flora and fauna thrive. The perfect namesake then, for this naturally beautiful beer.

Tasting Notes: Pouring a red colour, Montana Red opens with fresh aromas of grapefruit and blackcurrant. On the palate, seasonal Autumn flavours sweep through from the rye crystal, while the Galaxy hops bring scene-stealing sweet and citrusy passionfruit. It’s all set against a backdrop of malty, warm, bready notes, giving rise to a beer of deep and distinct flavour.

Wild River 4.5 Fuller's Brewery

Wild River is a double hopped pale ale that uses some of the finest American hops available such as Liberty, Willamette, Cascade and Chinook.

Spring Sprinter 4.0 Fuller's Brewery

A light zesty spring ale

Tasting Notes: Brewed to 4% ABV, Spring Sprinter is refreshing to the palate and bursting with zesty hop flavours that pick out citrus and gooseberry.  English malts provide the balance, with distinctive biscuity sweetness coming through - before the beer races to a short, sharp finish.

San Miguel 5.0 Carlsberg UK Ltd

San Miguel is brewed using a special mashing process which gives the beer a fuller and slightly sweeter flavour. The unique recipe and San Miguel yeast then come together to deliver a refreshing, full bodied beer with a great taste.
