While the brewery bakes under a blistering summer sun our thoughts turned to that most classic of summer beers; the Saison. Acrobat is our first interpretation of a traditional Saison; dry, fruity and a little spicy with a high carbonation designed to refresh after long days out in the sun. We added Apricot during fermentation to enhance the aromatic esters from the classic Dupont yeast and a little tarragon in conditioning for a subtle hint of anise. The sun doesn’t shine much in Huddersfield, but when it does, we’re head over heels!

Borefts. Clear golden with big white head. Banana and sweet malts, some lemon and then a nice spicy yeast kick. Nice bitter finish. Like a light Belgian ale. Medium bodied and lively carbo. Good

Craft Clerkenwell. Keg. Hazy gold - amber beer, good white head. Palate is crisp, airy and semi dry. Unusual beer. Light creamy malts. Lots of esters, pear and banana. Touch of apricot tartness and the a caraway like nuttyness. Light spice throughout. Light airy finish. Different and tasty.
