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!

440ml can. Pitch black, tan head. Aroma of earthy coffee, dark chocolate. Taste of huge roasty coffee, earthy, dark chocolate, tobacco, think the vanilla has got a bit lost under all those strong flavours, lingering bitterness, booze. Full bodied. Excellent coffee stout.

Can from House Of Trembling Madness. Murky golden body with a white head. No visible carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of pine, pineapple and toasted coconut. Flavour of mango and honeydew melon with a hint of spiky hop spice. Medium body with a thick, chewy mouthfeel. Light fizz. Fresh and full-flavoured. This is sublime.

Burk. Otroligt fruktig! Mycket mango, aprikos och blodapelsin. Även något som drar lite åt grönsakshållet. Därpå en stor kaksötma, samt en relativt stor bitterhet som drar åt örthållet. I eftersmaken framträder alkoholen.

Keg @ Tap and Can. Misty golden yellow appearance, small white head. Sharp hop introduction, Nelson and Simcoe breaking through the mix with tangerine and pineapple and soft underlying dank hints, bittersweet close. Decent.

440ml can - Pours a hazy peachy pink colour with a small very pale pink head. The aroma is tart raspberries with some lemon notes. A light tart fruity taste, raspberry flavours and a drying slightly sour finish. A bit watery and light on flavour.
