Check out our beers on tap of the week:
•Liquid Mistress Red IPA by Siren is their femme fatale -mysterious, seductive and disarming. She draws and charms drinkers with her full, red colours. You will soon desire her biscuit-and-burnt-raisin malt base, and peach and grapefruit spark. 5.8% abv.
•Tabloid Beer by To Øl, a table beer made with rock sugar. This gives the beer a subtle sweetness that evokes memories of some of the best classic Belgian brews over the years. Light enough on the abv to be enjoyed often and big enough on the taste to make you want more. 4.6% abv.
•Northern Star Mocha Porter by Northern Monk. With coffee beans in the brew full of bitterness and hazelnut hints, along with rich dark hocolate and milk sugar to balance this full bodied dark ale. 5.9% abv.
•American Amber ale by Rogue. Tawny Amber in color with toffee aroma, tight head and a delicate roasted malt accent. Generous use of hops and a smooth finish. 5.3% abv.
•Liverpool Tart by Mad Hatter is a perfecty balanced Gose based on the traditional Scouse sweet treat. Sharp, crisp and zesty with an aroma of peaches and apricots. A tang of salt halts the sweetness and gives a satisfying finish. 4.2% abv.
And as always, Camden Hells Lager and Camden Ink by Camden Town Brewery plus Yankee by Roosters; but you already know those! 🍻
