Wishbone Brewery – Keighley, Yorkshire, UK

Thought we should have a bit of a run-down of all the beers we were pouring this last weekend cos we think everything was tasting pretty damn good and YOU really should buy some!

Bramble Nose Lager 4.2% – Our new all British Lager, British malts and hopped with Bramling Cross, Gluten Free & Vegan. Available in 30L Keykeg now.

1867 Railway Porter 4.5% – Tasting very roasty with a hint of smoke, lots of repeat customers drinking this 7-Malt Porter. Grab a pint from the Royal Oak in Haworth on Cask. Vegan. Available in Firkin, Pin & 30L Keykeg now.

Temporary Traffic Lights Session IPA 4.5% – Hopped with Citra, Nelson Sauvin & Amarillo. Dry Hopped and Vegan. Available in Firkin, Pin & 30L Keykeg now.

You only zing twice 4.8% Ginger Beer – Lightly hopped with zesty hops, uses 60kg of Frozen diced Ginger root and some Lemon Peel. This is hands-down a Festival favourite, loads of folk drinking it again and again. Vegan. Available in Pin & 30L Keykeg now.

Tiller Pin Session Pale Ale 4.2% – You know what its like, always a firm fav with drinkers. Always available in Firkin, usually a few Pins in stock too.

That One 4.5% Traditional Pale – Maris Otter as the main base malt and British Fuggle hops, fermented with an English Ale yeast for a good chewy character that reminds us a bit of Tetley’s Bitter when it was actually good which was like 35 years ago! Available in Firkin, Pin now.

Order in all the usual ways, Cheers

We will have Scho’s Doughs Pizza here on Saturday 31st October, Halloween no less! And the Menu sounds really good “BEST.MENU.EVER”.

We’ll have the usual 6 Handpulled and 4 Keg beers on offer, we are open 12.00 til 19.00.

All the usual stuff applies, we have sloped and level access but our toilet facilities may not be suitable for those less able. We are family and dog friendly, please be sure to keep both under control, ask us if those dogs need water and we’ll bring you a bowl over. We stock some lovely wine from Martinez Wines, Coke, Lemonade and some Fruit Shoots. Cheers

This week we have ‘obviously’ brewed Tiller Pin 4.2% and also had the folks from Keighley Worth Valley Railway / The Royal Oak in Haworth down here to brew a 4.5% Porter, this 7-Malt Porter features just a hint of German Smoked malt which will add complexity but you’ll be hard pressed to taste it. British Admiral hops bring bitterness and balance to this beer.
Named 1867 from the date the line was opened, you’ll drink it first at the Royal Oak In Haworth on Cask then we’ll be bringing Kegs of it to the Keighley Worth Valley Railway Music & Beer Festival 15 – 18 October, you’ll find us at the Ingrow Station Friday, Saturday & Sunday. Available in about 3 weeks after the Royal Oak have had first dibs on it!

Also a new beer ‘That One’ especially designed to annoy bar staff as the punters ask for and point at ‘That One’, we are half tempted to make more beers called ‘The Other One’ and ‘No Not That One’, this is Rob’s idea of a Joke that he knows he’s going to be annoyed at! Ha!
The beer is a very Traditional Pale Ale, so its got a bit of colour to it from the British Maris Otter malt, we use a characterful British Ale yeast and British Fuggle hops. All this means the yeast character and malt are to the fore with the hops providing balancing bitterness with hints of spice. Available now in Cask.

And a new Lager! Bramble Nose is an old Yorkshire Dialect term for someone with a big red nose from drinking too much. This beer is a 4.2% British Malts and hops, using Bramling Cross hops with a Kolsch Style Lager Yeast. All this makes for a solid lager with a firm bitterness and a light herbal character. We have given it the Gluten Free Treatment so it will be available once we have the test results back and can release it.

Pretty sure we forgot to mention Prepper’s Pale 3.9% which is a tasty little session ale hopped with German Mandarina Bavaria for some orangy citrus goodness! Available now in Cask.

Also returning, which we forgot to mention, is E=Mc Pale, and Aussie Enigma, Kiwi Motueka & Yanky Citra hopped Session Pale. 3.9% and Available now in Cask.

Along with tasty Gujarati food from The Peacock we will have a starting beer line up like this…

See you all here on Saturday 26th 12 til 7pm 👍

We will be open for our next Bar Day Saturday 26th September 12 til 7pm, we will have the usual 6 Handpulled and 4 keg beers on the bar, and we’ll have the great food from Raj at The Peacock back in the brewery.

All the usual stuff applies, we have sloped and level access but our toilet facilities may not be suitable for those less able. We are family and dog friendly, please be sure to keep both under control, ask us if those dogs need water and we’ll bring you a bowl over. We stock some lovely wine from Martinez Wines, Coke, Lemonade and some Fruit Shoots. Cheers

Here we go folks, some beer to whet your whistle…

And the Keg selection…

And not forgetting Jays Pizza is back for some dough slinging!

Bring your action trousers, your beer goggles and a thirst! We are Evelenteen!

After we cleared out from the Beatherder Festival we had some Tiller Pin Keykegs left over so we planned to discount and sell off just to get them drunk up, though it seems they have gone down very well with people so this week we’re brewing a little tank full of Tiller Pin which we will mostly put into Keykeg. We can’t sustain the discount we set to clear-out the leftovers from the festival so regular prices will be in effect, it’s all too easy to forget to cost for the price of the empty keg and the recycling costs and suddenly be out of pocket! Tiller In keykeg will be available in approx 2 weeks.

Also, its been a while since we brewed Social Banter, we’ve changed the ABV to 4.5% which we hope will let pubs/drinkers see more bang-for-buck rather than people being put off by the lower 3.8% with all those expensive hops thrown at it. Brewed with all the same hops and malts, available to order in Cask & Keykeg in about 2 weeks.

Beers in tank this week are Tiller Pin and Gaggle Lager to keep our stocks up, and both are available now.

A tiny Low Street / Wishbone Tap update

We had the joiner install the new staircase and strip out the old one, make good the hole left with new flooring. We had a builder instate a new drain connection ready for a ground floor accessible toilet, at the time of doing this they noticed a patch of Dry Rot…. cue me stressing and being too busy to actually look at it for myself for quite a few weeks…. anyway, once I did get to look it wasn’t too bad and we’ve had a survey done and will be getting a specialist contractor in to sort it before we do any other work.
Hopefully after this we can get another Skip in and finish clearing out the Ground and First floors before starting to remove all the rubble from the cellar, then we’ll need the Joiner back for some further work.
Then we’ll need to start working with our electrician on the first fix parts of a rewire.

We’ve got a new beer and an old faithful brewing this week.

Abyss Stout 4.3% being the old faithful that you lot give full appreciation to.

The new one is a Pale ale with Citra & Motueka 4.3% which should be a nice easy drinker. If your Kazoo is Kitchy, then you need a Kitchy Kazoo!

Both available to order in cask from Monday, Abyss is already in stock.

Order in all the usual ways, cheers

Along with keeping Tiller Pin stocks in the right place, we tweaked the Pumpclip of Decade to reflect that it will be our 11th year trading at the end of August.

Tiller Pin 4.2% is a satisfying mix of American Citra, Chinook & Cascade hops.

Decade 4% is what tiller pin would be if we stopped buying American hops, instead the hops are from the UK and NZ with the added bonus of being made Gluten Free.

Indigo Warbler 3.7% Challenger hopped, Maris Otter brewed Session Bitter went into cask this week, so if you happen to like a lovely Brit-hopped Trad Bitter that we’d like to think echos the lovely Bluebird Bitter from Coniston….. Give us a shout and grab a Cask.

Order in all the usual ways, and btw, have you filled out our little buying habits survey? We will post the results once we have enough responses to make the data useful. Cheers

It’s only our 11th Birthday at the end of August – Saturday 29th August 12 til 8pm.

Along with our usual 6-Handpulled beers and a regular Keg lines, we’ll be rolling out the 6-Tap Mobile Keg bar so we can give you more choice.

Food is from Jay’s Pizza

All the usual stuff applies, we have sloped and level access but our toilet facilities may not be suitable for those less able. We are family and dog friendly, please be sure to keep both under control, ask us if those dogs need water and we’ll bring you a bowl over. We stock some lovely wines from Martinez from Bingley/Ilkley, Coke, Lemonade and Fruit Shoots. Cheers
