Our Core Range

Metalman Pale Ale

American style pale ale, dark gold in colour with a delicate white head. Citrus and floral aromas lead into hop flavours characterised by grapefruit and mandarin produced by American hops. A dry bitter finish makes this an eminently enjoyable and refreshing beer.

ABV : 4.3%

Available in : Keg, cask

Recommended food pairing : The citrus flavours and bitter finish on this beer means it goes well with robust, full-flavoured dishes such as thai or indian curry, steak with pepper sauce.

Seasonal Beers

Windjammer – Summer Seasonal

An amber beer, hopped exclusively with lots of New Zealand varieties. An antipodean extravaganza, lightly carbonated with a soft bitterness from a combination of Southern Cross and Pacifica, leading into tropical fruit flavours of pineapple and mango, with the wonderful addition of grapes from Nelson Sauvin hops – a delightful spring beer!

ABV : 4.8%

Available in : Keg, cask

Recommended food pairing : Try it with chicken wings, either plain or in a piquant barbecue sauce. The fruitiness of the hop flavours also makes Windjammer a good accompaniment to your battered fish and chips – try it and see, you won’t be disappointed!

Alternator – Autumn Seasonal

Hazy golden wheat beer with a punchy Belgian twist! Alternator is a light-to-medium bodied beer, lightly bittered, with a citrus finish from Cascade hops which is complemented by spicy flavours from coriander, pepper and a saison-style yeast.

ABV : 4.5%

Available in : Keg, cask

Recommended food pairing : Light (but not delicate) shellfish dishes, like mussels or clams, will sit well with the spiciness of Alternator, or try a pulled pork sandwich with barbecue sauce – delicious!
