FLAGSTONE is as classic a West Coast IPA as it gets; sweet, caramel and biscuit malt notes finishing bitter and dry, keeping this slightly stronger number drinkable and refreshing. A classic westy aroma of fresh lemon zest, pine and fresh squeezed grapefruit juice from it's massive American dry-hop.

Remember when we were discussing Burial Act (The BEER) and the 1855 Burial Act? And we told you to remember the mandatory flagstones brought in by the act?

As classic a West Coast IPA as it gets - a bright amber beer, finishing very dry and super bitter after the full bodied biscuit malt character and with all the lemon zest, pine and sticky resin notes you could possibly want from the massive American dry hop. πŸƒπŸ‹πŸŒ²πŸ»

FLAGSTONE was one of the last beers we released before the great rebrand of 2024! We loved it, you loved it, we have been so excited to rebrew it and rerelease it with its shiny new look!

Hurdles is our New Zealand Pale Ale - a super hazy New England number. Bright orange and full of ripe stone fruit and white wine character.

BURIAL ACT (the beer) is an exciting next step in our exploration and experimentation with New England brewing. Experimenting with dry hopping processes has *ahem* unearthed a whole spectrum of flavour from the mosaic, strata & idaho 7 combo, giving us our favourite iteration of the style yet

At the height of it’s deprivation, the people of Angel Meadow took to digging up the cemetery earth, selling it on to farmers for compost. The practice lead to the remains of Angel Meadows deceased slowly becoming exposed through the dug up earth, leading to the passing of the Burial Act of 1855

St Michael’s Flags and Angel Meadow is our home, I’m sure you’ve heard us going on about it. A historic slum, the park right outside the front door of our brewery began life as a mass grave for the impoverished and destitute population of the area, backing the now demolished St Michael’s church.

An exciting cask exclusive, you’ll have to hunt this out in your favourite pubs, bars and hand-pulled ale merchants which is apt as this beer was born as part of our Pub Ale range, celebrating the traditions, beers and lives of the pubs we love!

This beer reads like a traditional cosy, rich ale but drinks like a crisp and bitter pale ale from the West Coast of the US of A.

A base of the heritage British malt variety Chevalier, this unique and distinctive malt has a robust and hearty biscuit and cereal note. The dry hop uses 3 modern British hops; shake off those prejudices of the hedgerow, herbal British hop character and think ripe stone fruits & fresh citrus zest

Electric Circus (the beer) is a session pale. Soft bodied and lightly sweet, the hazy base beer is given juicy, fruit forward aroma and refreshing finish with the unmistakable addition of that classic dry hop combo: mosaic and citra

The Electric Circus is a part of Manchester that has transcended into folklore - an iconic heavy metal and punk venue just north of the city centre which, through several iterations, saw every punk and new wave band imaginable pass through it’s doors

A classic, clean and bright Vienna lager - amber, lightly malty, bitter and crisp. This recipe was written, developed and brewed by our brewer Tara and named after her wonderful son.
Bright, exciting and full of life - this beer shares many qualities with its namesake.

Here’s to 2025 and to Kit 🍻

Our hazy, little session pale is dry hopped with Strata and Idaho 7 for that balance of stone fruit and gentle herbal notes sitting on the soft, lightly sweet and gently bitter beer.
