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!

Nice that it really is fairly true to NEIPA and not just murky silliness. Pleasant citrusy hop character, subtle pale malts, melon, mild bitter rind, some tangerine, hints of pine needles. Good balance overall.

Pink head, gone in seconds, over dark cyclamen-red beer, veiled. Sourish, fresh red/pink berries, citrus. Quite some hints at other grains. Red fruit, chalk, dusty. Fine fruity acidity. Rahter delicate fruitflavours, but also (faraway) beetroot, pricky pear, kiwano. Mild, yet lipsmacking acidity. Modest acidthinning, refreshing and spritzy. Amusing , nice, if nowhere outstanding.

Sample courtesy of Grumbo, cheers Graham! Golden amber colour, thin white foam head and aroma of ripe tropical fruits, citrus, hops. Taste is sweet, malt caramel, juicy fruits, mellow citrusy, with resiny hop bitterness. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, hoppy bitter finish. Nicely drinkable.
