Cask Ales - Coming Soon

Inclined Plane – Amber Ale 4.2%

Tasting notes

A refreshing amber coloured bitter with a light floral finish.  The late addition of the Amarillo hop instils a distinct citrus flavour.  First brewed in 2004, this multi-award winning beer is named after the canal boat lift operating in the 1900s at the Foxton Locks in Leicestershire.

TOP LOCK 3.9%

Tasting notes

A refreshing seasonal golden ale, very smooth and crisp. Moreish. Soft citrus flavour with fruity and fresh aroma. A pronounced hoppy characteristic makes this an ideal pint for relaxing by the locks on a summers day

Thomas Lift – Premium Bitter 4.4%

Tasting notes

A generous addition of caramel malts defines this deep chestnut ale.  A sweetness on the palate results, which is offset by pine and citrus flavour notes.  This is a luscious, full-bodied brew which will leave you wanting another.

Rainbow Bridge – Golden Pale Ale 3.8%

Tasting notes

Citra and Mosaic hops are blended in plentiful amounts to deliver a complex tropical nose.  Crisp pale malts combine with the hops to craft this thirst- quenching tipple.

EARTHRISE 4.5%

Tasting notes

This low-orbit IPA dials in the citrus fruit: orange, tangerine and grapefruit, stacked on pine resin.

PETRICHOR 4.0%

Tasting notes

Fresh and electric, combining Motueka, Wai-iti, and Riwaka for an intense rush of lime zest and passionfruit. Citra and Mosaic hops add additional layers of mango and gooseberry, leading into a clean, floral finish

KOOKABURA 4.2%

Tasting notes

Showcasing Australian hops at their finest.  Waves of passionfruit, mango and citrus roll through this sunny IPA

BLACK SWAN MILD 3.4%

Tasting notes

Dark and smooth with hints of chocolate and coffee on the nose and a soft rounded malt finish.

ROGERS AK BITTER ALE 4.5%

Tasting notes

Clear copper-amber with a smooth cask mouthfeel, opening with aromas of earthy British hops, toasted biscuit malt, and subtle red berries. On the palate, it delivers a perfect balance of hedgerow fruit sweetness and deep, toasted malt complexity, culminating in a crisp, dry, and lingeringly bitter finish accented by herbal and peppery hop notes.
