Drink % Brewery
Birra Moretti 4.6 Heineken

The ultimate Italian lager since 1859, Birra Moretti’s special blend of high quality hops creates a smooth, full bodied beer with wholemeal bread top notes which are cut by a delicate citrus note.

Tasting Notes: It is a bottom fermented beer with a golden colour. This colouring is a result of the type of malt used in brewing. Its alcohol content is 4.6% alcohol by volume. It is not a strong beer and is therefore perfect for drinking at lunch, at dinner or for evenings out with friends

Heineken 5.0 Heineken

Brewing beer is a 100% natural process. Heineken beer is made from the purest ingredients.

Tasting Notes: The resin from the female hop flower cones is used to help balance the sweetness of the barley with a refreshing bitterness.

Foster's 3.7 Heineken

Foster's is the ultimate ice-cold refreshment. Its balance of subtle fruitiness and vanilla is ideal for the sweeter-toothed lager lover. The perfect session beer to enjoy with mates.

Tasting Notes: A light-coloured lager style, it presents full malt character with a balanced clean hop bitterness. Combined with a slightly hoppy, but yeasty/malty nose, Foster's lager is a full bodied beer with excellent drinkability.

Anchorman 4.1 Brewpoint

A modern, fresh and fruity cask beer brewed using a blend of contemporary English ingredients with American late-hopping. This blockbusting beer begins with a gentle malt sweetness, leading to a lingering, bitter finish.

Foghorn 4.3 Brewpoint

A hazy, sessionable American style IPA. Gentle pine notes lead to an explosion of stonefruit and citrus flavours, leaving behind a crisp and bitter finish.

Lodestar Brewpoint

An easy drinking, crisp pale ale that is full of character. Expect bright tropical and citrus hop flavours on a light malt base, with a low bitterness.

Tasting Notes: 

Adnams Southwold Bitter 3.7 Adnams

Southwold Bitter is a beautiful copper-coloured beer, late and dry-hopped with Fuggles for a distinctive, lingering hoppiness. Brewed with the finest East Anglian Pale Ale malt barley, sourced locally to the brewery. We use Fuggles hops which we add late in the boil to preserve the herbal flavours of this traditional English hop. We add more Fuggles to each cask so that the flavour of the hops infuses into the beer. It’s a perfect 3.7% abv in cask and 4.1% abv in bottle and can.

Genesis Brewpoint

A smooth, creamy stout where roasted barley and oat malt are carefully blended with English bittering hops. Roasted aromas and a dry taste lead to a mellow, moreish finish. A unique recipe, brewed in small batches, fresh out of Bedford.

Tasting Notes: A hazy, sessionable American style IPA. Gentle pine notes lead to an explosion of stonefruit and citrus flavours, leaving behind a crisp and bitter finish.

Carlsberg 3.4%

Longer matured, and brewed using an innovative cold-hopping technique, it's a little more mellow than a regular Pilsner. And it delivers all the easy-drinking refreshment of a great draught beer.

Tasting Notes: 

Cruzcampo 4.4 Heineken

Cruzcampo is a pilsner style Spanish lager founded in Seville in 1904. Brewed with subtle hoppy notes, fruity characteristics and finished with Cruzcampo bitterness. It’s a fresh, crisp, easy drinking beer and a favourite amongst Spanish locals.

Tasting Notes: 

Guinness Draught 4.2 Diageo

Rich and creamy. Distinctive, Ruby Red colour. Velvety in its finish. This iconic beer was developed in 1959 and launched as a celebration of the 200 years anniversary of Arthur Guinness signing his 9,000-year lease.

Tasting Notes: Aroma: Sweet smelling with a coffee and malty nose 
 Flavour: Perfect balance of bitter and sweet with malt and roast characters Palate: Smooth, creamy and balanced

Strongbow 4.5 Heineken

Strongbow gets its distinctive flavour and cut-through refreshment through the unique blends of bittersweet British cider apples from our Herefordshire orchards.

Tasting Notes: The cider is made from a blend of bittersweet cider and culinary apples making it a well-rounded, balanced cider with a good mix of fresh apples and cidery flavour

Henry Westons Vintage Cider 5.2%

A refreshing medium dry sparkling cider that is smooth and rounded in flavour packed with apples from a single year's harvest

Tasting Notes: 

Strongbow Dark Fruit 4.0 Heineken

Crisp Strongbow cut with a blend of dark fruit

Tasting Notes: Harnessing the crisp, masculine refreshment of Strongbow Original, Strongbow Dark Fruit offers an easy-drinking combination of Strongbow cider, cut with black currant and blackberry juices.
