Our Anniversary Ale is brewed once a year to celebrate our birthday! The 2020 Vintage celebrates our 5th Anniversary and is the first to be enjoyed during a global pandemic.



The beer is a funny one - we call it a Biere de Garde but it definitely blurs style guidelines. Some vintages are more like a Belgian dubbel - very sweet and malty. Others are classic Biere de Garde, with a nice tartness that lingers on the back end. Discover 2020!

Poured from 330mL bottle. Slightly hazy copper with minimal off white head. Esters, touch of candied sugar, definitely imitates a Dubbel, but fairly average. Alcohol quite hidden.

Clearish copper with a small white head. Malty and toffee notes. Bitter caramel and a long malty finish. Treacle notes.

330mL bottle, pours a clear dark amber with a small white head. Aroma is quite estery, like a Belgian dubbel, with bubblegum, earthy notes, and some red fruits. Flavour is quite fruity and estery, with dry, earthy red fruits, lots of bubblegum and esters, and a hint of alcohol. Fruity and estery. Doesn't strike me as a biere de garde, but it is kind of a bullshit style. Still, it's too estery for my taste. It's alright.
