Hope you all enjoy our beer selection, we’ll be staffing it Friday on the Trade Session and all day Saturday.

See you there.

Here’s the back of our Bar Dates flyers, we think its important, we think its important to support the Small, Indie and Local so as to keep the UK beer landscape interesting and thriving.

Three brews this week should see us fully stocked up for all styles, Tiller Pin simply to ensure stock, a new Single Hopped Blonde 3.4% using Nelson Sauvin from New Zealand, and Abyss Stout cos folks ask for it when it’s not in stock.

Also put in cask this week have been Blonde 3.6% and Knock Back Bitter 4%, the bitter has had a nice little colour tweak and is tasting good.

Order in all the usual ways, Cheers 🍺

Just a quick post to say its been quite a while since we had Bingley Brewery down at our place, it was 2022 in fact! It will be the usual opening times, open from 12 noon, though guess we’ll stretch out shouting last orders a little later to 8pm 😉 Also if you like Beer from the wood, we will have 4x Wishbone Cask beers served from the wood and the SPBW lot will be here with an award for us!

Bingley will be bringing their bar and beers down to us for Saturday February 28th, they will be serving 5 or 6 Handpulled beers alongside our own 6 Handpulled and 4 keg beers.

Food will be from Loaf & Loaded. I’ll update here once I have the menu.

Yes we know this clashes with Bradford Beer Festival but we figure there is enough diversity of customers that we’ll all make a good day of it.

Bit of a late post as didn’t have time yesterday, Today’s beers in the brewery with Palomino Pizza

And possible changes, depending what we decide when we get in to work.

Open from 12.00 til 7pm today 👍

This week sees us brewing Blonde 3.6% to keep stocks up along with Knock Back Bitter 4%, we have tweaked the bitter recipe to get the colour to be a little darker and reflect the Amber/Bitter tag we gave it.

Also this week we have racked and kegged Pixie Juice 5% and Decade 4%, both Gluten Free beers so we have to wait for the test results to come back before releasing them. They should be available in about a week.

And one we’ve not brewed for a while but tasting rather blooming good as a solid pint has gone into Cask, Blanc Stare 4.1% which is available now.

And before you go back to what you were doing, its our Brewery Bar Day this Saturday 12 til 7pm with Palomino Pizza throwing the delightful dough disks!

This week we are brewing a couple of things, My BFF is an Ai 5% IPA with Ekuanot and Mosaic hops, and Blanc Stare 4.1% with Hallertau Blanc and Nelson Sauvin hops.

Blanc Stare should be available in about a week and My BFF the week after.

Beers coming out of tank soon are Tiller Pin, Pixie Juice and Decade.

Order in the usual ways, cheers

Looking back at the sales patterns for Session IPAs across 2025 it shows that quite a few pubs are reluctant to spend the money on a 3.8% beer versus a 4.5% beer, the amount of hops we need to use to make a damn good 3.8% Session IPA are broadly the same as for a 4.5% beer but Landlords are more willing to pay the money for the stronger ABV when the cost of hops puts the price up. I guess this feels more Bang-for-Buck to drinkers. The results of these patterns of buying are that we have thrown more beer away in 2025 than we have across nearly all of the last 10 years.

We will be tweaking some brews and creating new ones but basing our Sesh IPA’s around the 4.5% ABV mark to see if we can improve the speed of sales.

Beer Quality is of the upmost importance and we want pubs and drinkers to have the best possible experiences.

Cheers

Expect to see a 4.5% version of Social Banter in the near-ish future, all the same hops but more malt.

We are getting back into the groove this week with 3 brews, Tiller Pin brewing tomorrow then we’re onto a Gluten Free stock build with Decade 4% and Pixie Juice 5%.

The Gluten Free beers will be available sometime in the last week of January once the lab test results are with us.

Answers on a postcard!

It was Tiller Pin 4.2% of course.

We started a small brew off with fresh yeast, next week we’ll crop the yeast and brew 2-3 times.

Don’t forget it’s out brewery bar day on Saturday 31st January 12 til 7pm.

Cheers
