Description
Conceived as a ‘nomadic’ project, The Beak has spent several years creating unfiltered, seasonally-inspired beer with friends at some the greatest UK breweries, including North Brew Co, Partizan, Beavertown, Burning Sky and Northern Monk. We've now laid roots in our hometown of Lewes in East Sussex, where we've built a 15-BBL neighbourhood brewery and taproom with a mixed-fermentation project and weekend street food canteen. Please come and say hi!

Panda thanks to Cloin. Just a light haze on this gold beer, small but tidy bubbly pale cream colour head. Light smooth palate, a very mild dryness, decent fine minerally carbonation. Light malts, slightly dry, a mild to medium sweetness that suits this brew. Hops bring cooling pine, a little pithy bitterness, and a light but pleasing broad spectrum hop fruits. Light and semi dry finish leaves a mildly bitter linger. Breezy.

200ml draught at Balthazar. Decent white head over a hazy golden body, scattered lacing. Hop fruity smell of passion fruits and wheat. Mixed taste of citrus and berries on a backbone of fruity wheat. Mid-dry finish. Quite alright. (Tromsø, 10.04.2026).
