This year's fest is a Donzoko all timer. Smooooth malt, subtle strawberry, crisper than an autumn walk by the quayside. We made an absolute load so it should be available lots of places.

Currently surveying the Perle hops that go into most of our beers, today they are being picked and dried.

Off to Tettnang this week, to sniff and select some hops from the family farm we buy from. Then up to Berlin to brew using those green hops at Fuerst Wiacek. Content will ensue.

Hard pour a bit to make some foam, leave it a couple mins, slowly top up to the brim, leave it 20s then slowly top up a little more

EDGE OF TOWN is a 6% west coast IPA. All Simcoe, resin, bitter and bright. A lil tribute to the breweries who invented these beers, and intrepid beer fans drinking them in industrial estates on the edge of town.

If you want to try it you gotta come to Newcastle upon Tyne as it may be taproom only.
