Pubs & Bars – Survey – Where do you buy beer from?

We are interested to know where you are buying your beers from to help us evaluate the ways we sell and where we sell via, please select all options you currently use and leave us a comment to say which is used most. Thanks for your time.

Here’s the link to the very short survey – https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfb1mHhyc5yOhygz6jcU1ygKsY-JiZL7uPRRX4l149YpgnB3Q/viewform

We are trying to evaluate if we are missing out by not being on the Sellar platform, which feels currently like an expensive way to sell beer. But that said, if we need to carve out some time (My time) to do all the artwork to make it look nice, take photos, format all the imagery etc etc to get on the platform and make it look appealing, we’ll do it and hope we can break even on their costs.

We will, of course, share the survey results once we have a good enough sample size to make the data useful.

Cheers

Always tasty grub!

We’ll have the usual 6x Handpulled and 4x keg beers on our bar.

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

When you make a lovely beer and no bugger buys it

I’m guessing this is a frustration that a lot of brewers have, you make something you think is Tasty AF but the speed of sale aka ‘the lack of it’ totally hinders getting it under drinker’s noses and across their tastebuds.

We would really like you all to give our ‘Little chance to dance’ 6.2% IPA a thorough drink, its got a lovely firm but smooth bitterness from oodles of American Centennial at the stary of boil, then more than amply hopped with Citra, Mosaic, Chinook & Idaho 7. Its Dry Hopped, unfined and vegan.

Little chance to dance is currently available in Firkins, Pins and Keykegs, give it a go, you won’t be dissapointed.

Another beer we’d really like your feedback on it the latest brews of Pixie Juice 5% Gluten Free Dry-hopped pale where we have re-jigged the recipe to include German Acidmalt which really brings out the juicy fruity hops and proper makes you mouth water for more. We have an offer starting on this beer cos we want folks to give us some feedback. Tested gluten free and also unfined and vegan.

Pixie juice is available in Firkins, Pins and Keykegs, please order in the usual ways.

Cheers

Eezee Is in Cask and Velvet Gloss & Pixie Juice brewing this week

Also, have to had our very tasty brew of Little chance to dance 6.2% yet, we felt there was beginning to be more confidence in people wanting stronger beers so we brewed one, be sure to grab a Cask or Keg.

Little chance to dance in Cask or Keykeg

Cheers, order in all the usual ways.

Brewing this week – Tiller, Gaggle & Eezee

Tiller Pin, Gaggle Lager & Eezee Session Pale are all brewing this week, Tiller (Cask) & Gaggle (keykeg) are already in stock and available to order, Eezee will be in cask in about a week’s time. Please order in all the usual ways.

What we’ve not really told you is that for the last couple of brews of Gaggle Lager have been Gluten Free, and I’ve just sent the tweaked Keg clip artwork to the printer so it’s official and says what it is on the badge! This means each batch of Gaggle, or other beer that we call Gluten Free, will have had a sample sent away for Lab testing and we only release the beer once we know its passed the test.

Pixie Juice 5% GF Pale went into Cask and Keykeg along with a brew of Blonde 3.6% into Cask, Pixie juice will be available once the GF test comes back, about a week from now. We’ve also tweaked the Pixie Juice recipe, moved some hops from the Dry Hopping to the end of boil for a fuller flavour, tweaked the liquor (Brewing Water) treatment and added quite a chunk of German Weyermann Acidmalt which finally brings the J U I C E to the Pixie, we’d really like to know what you think of this iteration, Cheers.

This week is also the first part of our stock-build ahead of the amazing Beatherder Festival, you’ll find our beers around the festival site with the biggest range at the ‘Beyond’ bar where our 6-tap keg bar will be set up.

Please Rave Responsibly.
