Description

Housed beneath The Rat and Ratchet and since the very first brew of Lab Rat in 2011, head brewer, Paul Spencer and brewer Robin Moss, have created rodent themed beers to critical acclaim. Our beers are distinctive, extreme, generally intensely hopped and anything but average, experimenting with a range of different beer styles, strengths and ingredients. Rat beer is now infecting all four corners of the UK faster than the Black Death, turning a local infestation into a national plague. White Rat in particular has emerged as the flagship beer and now sits within the Ossett core range.

Cask ale, hand-pulled at the brewpub. Clear amber coloured body. Crocheted lacework to the glassware. Juicy malts on the nose. The taste follows the nose with caramel malts and fruity hops. Fine bodied. Smooth on the swallow. Pleasing (shared with Steinar and Nina during a pub crawl in Hudderfield 09.07.2014).

Cask @ Masons Arms, Todmorden. Almost black with a creamy off-white head. Has a full body and a full bodied taste with a mix of coffees and chocolates.
