Drink % Brewery
Abbot Ale 5.0 Greene King PLC

Full flavoured, smooth and mature taste with fruit cake characters , a malty richness and superb hop balance.

Tasting Notes: Mahogany in colour and brewed for longer to create a rich malty, and mature flavour.

Carling 4.1 Carling - Use Coors

Carling has been Britain’s best selling lager for more than three decades. It is brewed to have the perfect balance of sweetness & bitterness ensuring it is as brilliantly refreshing from the first sip to the last.

Tasting Notes: Carling has been skilfully brewed using lightly kilned British malts, aromatic hops and Carling's unique yeast to create a malty, sweet flavour, balanced with a hoppy ''clean flavoured'' bitterness and the aroma of freshly harvested grain.

Guinness Original 4.2 Guinness

Swirling clouds tumble as the storm begins to calm.

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

Birra Moretti 4.6 Heineken

The ultimate Italian lager since 1859, Birra Moretti’s special blend of high quality hops creates a smooth, full bodied beer with wholemeal bread top notes which are cut by a delicate citrus note.

Tasting Notes: It is a bottom fermented beer with a golden colour. This colouring is a result of the type of malt used in brewing. Its alcohol content is 4.6% alcohol by volume. It is not a strong beer and is therefore perfect for drinking at lunch, at dinner or for evenings out with friends

Citra 4.2 Oakham Ales

Zesty, hoppy, citrus.

Tasting Notes: Light gold in colour, bursting with citrus and tropical hop flavours and sensationally refreshing.

Cruzcampo 4.4 Heineken

Cruzcampo is a pilsner style Spanish lager founded in Seville in 1904. Brewed with subtle hoppy notes, fruity characteristics and finished with Cruzcampo bitterness. It’s a fresh, crisp, easy drinking beer and a favourite amongst Spanish locals.

Tasting Notes: 

Jail Ale 4.8 Dartmoor Brewery

Premium full bodied deep golden brown ale

Tasting Notes: Jail Ale has a well rounded flavour and a rich moreish aftertaste

Tribute 4.2 St Austell Brewery

Tribute is an easy drinking pale ale.

Tasting Notes: Fresh, Orange, Grapefruit The zesty orange and grapefruit flavours are balanced with biscuit malt. The beer of South West sport, Tribute has high profile shirt sponsorships with Somerset and Gloucester CCCs as well as close relationships with both Football League clubs Plymouth and Exeter City. Tribute is also the Official Beer of South West Rugby and supports many rugby teams in the region with shirt sponsorships, plus it is the main sponsor of the Cornwall RFU whose teams are the current County Champions and holders of the Bill Beaumont Cup. We were also thrilled in 2015 for Tribute to be the main sponsor of Bristol Balloon Fiesta and in 2016 Tribute will again be a high profile partner of this wonderful event. All told, there is plenty to look forward to for Tribute in the coming year.

Bass 4.4 Bass Brewery

Bass is the most famous English ale in the world, and has been brewed in Burton, England since 1777. It is a full-flavored ale that is still brewed to an original recipe, using only the finest ingredients and the experience of generations

Tasting Notes: A complex, nutty, malty taste with subtle hop undertones

Golden Thread 5.0 Salopian Brewing Company

A bright gold ale, using wheat and lager malt and flavoured with an infusion of aroma hops.

Tasting Notes: Clean and crisp to the palate with a hint of sweetness and a long fruit filled finish.

Inch's Medium Apple Cider 4.5 Heineken

When it comes to making Inch's, it's all about the little things: the craft, the care, the morning glare, and all that good stuff sunshine brings. That’s why we go big – really big – on perfecting those tiny details that all add up to a crisper, juicier cider.

Tasting Notes: Our Inch's Medium Apple Cider is a lightly sparkling cider with a fresh apple aroma – perfect for sunshine sipping. We make it using 100% British apples, grown within 40 miles from our Hereford mill. Every drop is crafted to strike that perfect balance between sweet and dry for lip-smacking refreshment.

Old Mout Berries & Cherries 4 Heineken

This tasty tipple occurred when our crisp apples met their match with a handful of ripe berries and cherries.
