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 from Middle Farm, Firle and shared in Kuala Lumpur. Poured a hazy light yellow milky golden colour with a short-lived, frothy white head. The aroma is grainy, mineral. The flavour is moderate bitter, with a crisp, dry, guava, light floral, dry hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation.

Cask at The Brewer's Arms, Lewes. I was very excited for this but sadly for me it turned out to be a bit of a mess. Kölsch like nose with some elderflower. Profile is a weird mix of floral, astringent boozyness and cheese. Saison like ending. Just didn't quite work for me..

440ml can. Murky golden with a white head. Aroma of grapefruit, orange, grape, slightly floral. Taste of orange and grapefruit, gooseberries, grape, berries, pine, light hop bitterness. Medium bodied.
Blended: sweet stone fruits and Nelson gooseberries, pithy zesty citrus - it's very nice and I'd give it the same rating as the individual beers.
