Drink % Brewery
Camden Town Stout 4.0 Camden Town Brewery

It's okay to be big headed. Especially when it comes to Stout. We use nitrogen bubbles to give our smooth stout it's thick, creamy head and fresh finish. Packed full of character, this is our fresh take on a classic style. So, in the spirit of being big headed, we think it's the finest stout in the land.

Tasting Notes: 

Neck Oil 4.3 Beavertown Brewery

Our all day, everyday, session drinking IPA. A blend of 7 American & Austrian hops, pineapple and orange citrus aroma, Passion fruit & grapefruit flavour with a refreshing, dry, crisp finish.

Tasting Notes: 

Pravha 4.0 Staropramen

Pravha was created by the legendary brewers of Staropramen, who were inspired to create a lighter tasting pilsner.

Tribute 4.2 St Austell Brewery

Tribute is an easy drinking pale ale.

Tasting Notes: Fresh, Orange, Grapefruit The zesty orange and grapefruit flavours are balanced with biscuit malt. The beer of South West sport, Tribute has high profile shirt sponsorships with Somerset and Gloucester CCCs as well as close relationships with both Football League clubs Plymouth and Exeter City. Tribute is also the Official Beer of South West Rugby and supports many rugby teams in the region with shirt sponsorships, plus it is the main sponsor of the Cornwall RFU whose teams are the current County Champions and holders of the Bill Beaumont Cup. We were also thrilled in 2015 for Tribute to be the main sponsor of Bristol Balloon Fiesta and in 2016 Tribute will again be a high profile partner of this wonderful event. All told, there is plenty to look forward to for Tribute in the coming year.
