It's not often that I get b**rs in from a non-local brewery twice in quick succession...but these Tartarus monster b**rs were far too tempting this close to Hallowe'en! 😁

The first six customers to buy the three monster b**rs will get a rather snazzy looking box for free. If that's your thing...don't wait too long!

Ratatoskr 4.4% Hazy Pale
A hazy sessionable pale ale brewed with oats and wheat for a soft malt backbone, fermented with kveik yeast for an extra fruity character. Citra & Nelson Sauvin hops in the whirlpool and dry hop to give this b**r flavours of citrus, tropical fruits & gooseberries.

Sphinx 6.1% Gluten Free Hazy IPA
A hazy IPA brewed with wheat and oats for a pillowy soft body. Dry hopped with Galaxy, Idaho 7 & Citra Hyperboost. Galaxy hops add intense flavours of passionfruit and peach, Idaho 7 hops add to this tropical fruit burst and provide a pine/resinous profile. Citra Hyperboost enhances the vibrant aroma profile and adds flavours of citrus, tropical fruits and zesty lime to this saturated, hop-forward IPA.

Sermilik 11% Barley W**e
Barley W**e brewed with an all pale malt base, dark brown sugar used to increase ABV and give this b**r it’s copper colour. Boiled for 6 hours to produce a smooth, rich, bold & decadent barley w**e.

Frankenstein's Monster 5.5% Key Lime Pie Saison
Brewed with saison yeast to produce a light & crisp b**r with a phenolic bite. We used 60kg of lime juice for a limey citrus burst, and vanilla essence adds a sweet creaminess on the finish.

Dracula's Daughter 6% Blood Orange IPA
An extra juicy Blood Orange IPA. Dry hopped with Citra, Idaho 7 for notes of tropical citrus. We also added 200kg blood orange juice and hibiscus for extra citrus flavour and a (blood) red hue!

The Mummy 6.5% Coconut White Stout
A rich and creamy Coconut White Stout, inspired by the traditional Egyptian drink: Sobia. We boiled the pale malt base for 3 hours to produce a velvety and sweet golden stout. The b**r was then infused with toasted coconut flakes and fresh coffee.

The shop is open right now...an hour earlier than usual...because I'm closing an hour earlier than usual! Shutting at 7pm, so I can do my bit for charity at Snods Edge B**r Festival, all profits going to Willow Burn Hospice.

Get yourselves along tonight or tomorrow! πŸ™‚

During yesterday's busyness business I completely forgot to say that Bog Potato is back in the house...teaching us all how to brew b**r! 😁

All done for day one of this month's Proper Sitty Doon Drinkies weekend. And for only the second time ever...the rent is sorted on day one! 😁 Thank you to all the lovely people that turned up today and made the weekend a tremendous success with another six hours of Sunday drinkies to go!

I noticed lovely clear skies as I was walking home, and if you want to see Saturn - it's currently just down and left from the bright full moon. πŸ™‚

See you tomorrow for more blasted antics!

Next up tonight are these cans from Firebrick Brewery, definitely in Blaydon.
Stottie B**r hasn't been in since last year, and Little Belgium hasn't been in since the brewery moved from bottles to cans (first time in cans maybe?) - I LOVE a witbier! 😍
Baffled flew out last time, so don't miss it! πŸ™‚
