In an attempt to get you lot excited for our Halloween and Harvest B**r Festival at the end of the month, common sense says I should probably tell you in good time what we have actually ordered to fit the autumnal theme.
Over the Halloween weekend starting Friday 30th October, we will have a rotating lineup of seasonal casks across our four handpulls, alongside some special dark kegs.
To get things started, here are the first three cask b**rs confirmed for the cellar:
Left Handed Giant x Tiley's Brewery: Hunter's Moon (4.4% Green Hopped English Pale Ale)
A proper celebration of the harvest. This annual autumn collaboration is brewed using organic floor malted Plumage Archer and fresh green Challenger and Fuggles hops picked in the Kent Weald just a day before the brew day. Expect an earthy, cedar spiced depth with soft hedgerow fruit, gentle herbal bitterness, and a hint of orange zest. (Vegan friendly)
Thornbridge: Autumnity (4.8% Autumn Red Ale)
Brewed specifically for the season, this pours a rich, deep copper colour. It is a robust, full bodied ruby ale with a really smooth mouthfeel and layers of deep, warming malt character. Proper cosy pub drinking as the nights draw in.
Elusive Brewing: Carve'n Yams (5.2% Pumpkin Coffee Porter)
It would not be a Halloween festival without something a bit seasonal and dark. Elusive brew this annually for Halloween using specialty malts, pumpkin, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spices, and locally roasted coffee. A rich, warming porter with just the right balance of roasted coffee and autumn spice.
