We’re excited to be part of Electric Bear’s nationwide “First Pour” event, which means you can be among the very first to try their brand new sour!

Bloom Landing is a refreshing Pink Lemonade Sour (4.5%) bursting with sweet citrus flavours and a tangy, thirst-quenching finish – perfect for these warmer days.

Available now at The Saxon Bar, but once it’s gone, it’s gone!
Pop in, grab a pint, and be one of the first in the country to taste this latest release from Electric Bear. 🍻

Happy 2nd Birthday to the Christchurch Repair Café Christchurch, Dorset 🎉

We're proud to host this fantastic community initiative and were delighted to welcome the Mayor, Cllr Maggie Fidler, to today's special session.

A huge thank you to all the volunteers and supporters who make it possible. We look forward to the next session on Wednesday 8th July, 10am–12pm, here at the Saxon Bar. 🔧♻️

Fresh on the bar and looking absolutely stunning! 🍺

We've just tapped Little Bitter Harlequin from electricbearbrewing,
a beautifully balanced 4.5% cask ale pouring perfectly with a creamy head and a rich amber glow.

If you're a fan of traditional cask beer with plenty of character, this one's well worth a pint.

Pop in, grab a seat, and see what all the fuss is about before it's gone.
As every real ale drinker knows... the best casks never hang around for long! 😉
