This Pale Ale has a good assertive pithy bitterness and a malty backbone. It is brewed with a selection of malts - Pale Ale, Rye and Cara

Not just the iconic ale of the capital, London Pride is an all-British affair that unites a nation of beer drinkers. It’s brewed with entirely home-grown hop varieties - Target for bittering and Northdown, Challenger and Goldings for aroma - but the soul of the beer is unquestionably in the malt.

Malt flavours and citric notes for a unique blend of Bobek, Goldings and Cascade hops give this deep golden ale a subtle hint of lemon. TROOPER takes its name from the Iron Maiden song which itself was inspired by the famous Charge of the Light Brigade.

Our tribute to the aviation heritage of the State of Kansas, a well balanced and vibrant red ale with lovely toffee undertones. A beer good enough to slake the thirst of any aviator!
