Description
We create everything from one-off experimental beers to a solid range of our favourite styles. There’s also a fair amount of dinosaurs (naturally) and retro video game references involved. We’re often at our Sneinton taproom, at various beer festivals, and obviously down the pub, so come and say Hi! Thank you for being on this journey with us and we hope you enjoy our beer as much as we enjoy making it!

440ml can from Left Field Beer and shared in Kuala Lumpur. Poured a hazy yellow golden colour with a mostly lasting frothy white head. The aroma is urinal cubes. The flavour is moderate to light bitter and sweet, with a mostly smooth, tart lemon lime citrus, light hop bitter palate. Medium to light bodied with average carbonation.

Can. Just a mild haze on this gold beer, decent pale cream colour head that lasts for a minute or so. Airy palate, smooth and mildly dry, decent fine minerally carbonation. Smooth creamy malts, light and sweet but, not oversweet. Cooling pine. Light but persistent hop spice. Smooth but bright citrus, light tropical fruits. Touch of savoury hop on the light finish. Nicely done, very quaffable.

Draft at the strait and narrow, Lincoln. Black colour with almost no head. Bow I have never tried a Dr Pepper. So no idea what to expect. What I get is cola, caramel and almonds. Medium body.
