Historically brewed with hemp seeds, Chronic Ale has been a staple at Pizza Port for over a decade! This mellow amber ale is the most popular beer in all of our pub locations as it agrees with everyone’s palate and goes great with pizza. It was a dream come true to finally put it in a can and give people the chance to carry it with them wherever they go!

Can, not sure where I picked this up, it may have been at the Junkyard, Nottingham. Consumed at Truck Festival, Steventon, Oxon, Friday 17th July 2015 Hugely disappointing beer that did very little for me at all. Amber in colour with some haze, a white sticky head atop. A touch fruity and malty but you know there was very little going on here, not great. A6 A3 T5 P3 Ov11 2.8
