🇧🇪 DE STRUISE

One of the best barrel programmes out there, STRUISE have spoilt us this time. ‘Black Damnation Octopussy’ has been aged in Ardbeg’s uber peat monster barrels, Octomore for 2 years. ‘Black Damnation Froggie’ in Margaux & Port barrels, also for 2 years. How Urbain manages to obtain Octomore, and Margaux barrels I dare not ask, but we are the lucky recipients of having some of the best impy stouts aged in the best barrels.

🇧🇪 ALVINNE

Flemish sours from the old legends at ALVINNE. We’ve got a brand new Cherry & Dried Mint Berliner Weisse in bottle and keg, and the one off ‘Super Mario 9000 Megablend’. This was brewed with the guys from THE GARDEN in Zagreb and blends numerous delicious barrels of golden sour into one delicious Megablend.

An absolutely stunning beer with Rum, Cognac, Pedro Ximenez and Bourbon barrels combining to take this beer to new unprecedented heights!

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 HOLY GOAT

Two brand new beers up from Dundees finest – ‘Goat Witch‘ a Flanders Red made from two base blends (one aged) and laid on Scottish tayberries – a cross between a raspberry and blackberry, giving plenty of depth and hue to this classic style. ‘Honeybucket‘ is the second offering – a 2022 re-visit to this beautiful elderflower blossom & local honey fermented Golden Sour.

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 BARON

Brew, Drink, Sleep, Repeat. That seems to be the mantra over at Baron towers, as the one man brewing machine knocks out another two impressive beers for your delectation. Bags of Amarillo and Enigma jump on the ‘Dude Train‘ pale ale, whilst ‘Culprit‘ NEIPA goes with a heavy heavy dry hopping of 20g/L Idaho 7, Ella and Mosaic. A big viscous bittered body with all the tropics on the nose.

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 PASTORE

Doffing the cap to Crockett & Tubbs, Pastore have dropped another cocktail influenced beer onto our lists. 🍹Half Pina Colada, Half Strawberry Daiquiri ‘Miami Vice‘ is conditioned on Pineapples, Strawberries, Lime juice, Coconut and pastel coloured linen jackets. They also have a mega Sherry BA Wild Ale ready; ‘Black Shuck‘ featuring Duration, Little Earth, Ampersand & All Day.

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 PASTORE X NEON RAPTOR

Following on from the breakfast imperial sour collab brewed at PASTORE last year – ‘Colazione Abbondante’, the brewers have teamed up again this time at Neon Raptor in Nottingham to make a second breakfast(ish) imperial beer, this time on the dark side. ‘Moustache’ is stuffed full of rich roasted coffee and sweet delicious donuts. Available in small pack and keg. We donut recommend this as a breakfast drink!
