LTD EDN SERIES: Our small batch range of experimental beers. It’s what happens when we let our brewing imagination run wild and see where it takes us. So we’re always trying something new, and so are you.

Each batch will be available for a short time only (ltd, even), and when it’s done, we’ll be on to something else. So be quick or it will be gone like the vowels on the labels.

Defiance GF Pale, our first ever gluten free beer, sister beer to our super popular Reliance PA, says ‘IN YOUR FACE’ to the laws of nature governing the formation of microscopic cross-links between naturally occurring proteins and SMASHES THE STATE of disulphide bonds between the proteins glutenin and gliadin, to produce this DELICIOUSLY REBELLIOUS fruit salad of a beer, equally enjoyable to those with gluten intolerance, and those who just want a tasty pint.

HOPS:
Galaxy and Vic Secret

MALTS:
Maris Otter pale, dextrin, torrified wheat, oats

On keg at Horse and Crown at Linby - clear yellow body with a fizzy white top. Nice clean citrus bite. Quick and easy go to.

Short lived beige foamy head on an unclear pale golden body. Stone fruit & bubble gum aroma. Medium to thin bodied, lightly carbonated & limp on the back. Peach, bubble gum, cordial & sweet tastes. That's awful.

330ml can. Poured a slightly hazy golden colour with a short-lived frothy white head. The aroma is malt, big zesty tropical citrus fruits. The flavour is moderate sweet and bitter, with a crisp, tutti frutti, sugary citrus, light woody hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation.

On tap at Brixton Brewery, one third pint on a sample tray. Clear golden body, dissipating white head, spotty lacing. Inviting tropical scent. Peachy flavours together with pineapple. Ends with decent fruity bitterness. Medium bodied. Soft in the mouth. Pleasing to a certain degree. (London 20.11.2021).

Delt med Rune på taprommet. Gylden. Nesten klar. Høyt tett skum som daler sakte. Aroma av søte bær. Smaken tropisk frukt. Lett søtlig bitter avslutning. Hint av svisker.
