Sou'Wester Stout

Sou'Wester stout

The Sou'Wester stout is our latest release - brewed just in time for winter. This is a chocolate stout that we have brewed that uses a large amount of chocolate malt and quaility Belgian cocoa to drive that chocolate flavour.

Appearance

A stout is a naturally dark beer and the addtional cocoa has lightened the colour to dark chocolate - what else !

Aroma

The aroma is a subtle hints of roast and of course a touch of chocolate. The aroma doesn't diminish and with a little warming can remind you of a coffee house (PS - Stout should be served a little warmer than many hotels serve their beers)

Flavour

A complex mix of the normal roast flavours of a stout and a beautifully balanced smooth chocolate finish to savour

Overall impression

A complex beer that combines the best of a traditional stout and a modern touch of chocolate. The flavour and warmth makes it a perfect drink for a cold day and is a great match with a rich desert (think of berries and chocolate together!)

We have packed all this into a beer that is still only 4.6% alcohol

 

Trade Winds IPA

In the 1800's, England shipped beer to their colonies in India. To survive the journey, it was made with a higher alcohol level than most beers of the time and hoppier than normal. Our beer follows this tradition, but using the latest methods to make sure we produce a consistent drop. Naturally, we use only the traditional english hops in this beer

Appearance

The "Pale Ale" refers to the colour compared to the other beers of the 1800's.

Aroma

The earthy aroma of the English East Kent goldings hops shows through.These hops are the traditional English hops used in their ales.

Flavour

This is a fuller bodied ale with a strong hop flavour. The strong bitterness is balanced against the full malt flavour leaving a pleasant finish on the palate.

Overall impression

A balanced full strength beer brewed in the English tradition
