Inspired by a Whitbread London Porter recipe from 1850, the heyday of porters. We have taken the recipe and used Boddington's yeast to reclaim this beer for Manchester, alongside the northern grown Northern Brewer hop.
A purposefully dark brown (not black) ale that has notes of coffee, chocolate and chicory this beer is all about letting those dark malt flavours through with brown malt predominant.
Monochrome is a luxuriously smooth Porter that layers deep chocolate, dark fruit, and mocha flavours with a delicate touch of vanilla sweetness. The rich malt bill provides a velvety mouthfeel, perfectly balancing roasted bitterness and creamy indulgence. A lingering finish of bittersweet chocolate and gentle vanilla warmth makes this an irresistibly comforting treat.
This Baltic Porter boasts a deep, dark hue with rich, complex malty flavors that envelop the palate. Hints of caramel from the malt blend seamlessly with the distinctive spice and floral notes of Lubelska hops. A refreshing finish complements its smooth, robust body, making it an indulgent yet balanced brew.
Canny Canuck - “Friendly Canadian”
An exciting combination of a Canadian staple and the North-East’s most beloved beer style. Canny Canuck is a modern take on a North-East classic which has deep malty flavours of biscuit, nuts, caramel and hints of chocolate and fermented maple syrup which creates a woodland aroma.
A magical modern stout. Munich and Roasted Barley kicks things off with nutty and coffee flavours before Chocolate lends its weight for both body and a wonderful biscuity whiff. Things get interesting when Magnum, Mosaic and Falconer’s Flight jump in with their orange and herbal flavours and fruity and floral finish. Enigmatic? Perhaps. Sophisticated? Beyond question.
Dark Nebula is a low-ABV yet layered porter, brewed with seven malts and Bramling Cross hops. Belgian yeast fermentation adds spicy depth, while bourbon barrel ageing imparts vanilla, oak, and warmth. At just 3.4%, it delivers rich complexity, dark chocolate, dried fruit, roast, and subtle smoke, all wrapped in a silky body. Vegan friendly.
This version of a classic Stout provides a sensory adventure with its diverse flavour profile. The roasted malts provide a foundation of coffee and chocolate notes, creating a satisfyingly smooth and rich taste. Added to which are subtle citrus notes and a hoppy bitterness.
