The Drapers Arms entrusted us with their wooden cask and we thought it would be perfect to fill it with Dead and Berry'd, our Robust Fruited Porter, brewed using fruit foraged from Arnos Vale Cemetery. It's been in it's Cask(et) for a month now infusing some of the wonderful flavours from the wood. How will it taste? Like us, you'll have to head to The Drapers Arms on Monday the 24th of November to find out.
Today is our first round match in the Bristol Brewery Challenge at The Sirens Calling in Portishead.
It's our first attempt and in the first round we’ve been drawn against our good friends at The Incredible Brewing Company in Brislington. That's tough competition!
We've entered our new Pale Ale "Hail to the King". It's a cask cousin of our house pale "Elvis has left the Building". We hope you like it! It'll be on at the brewpub next week.
Following the UK’s ratification of UNESCO's Convention for the Safeguarding of Intangible Cultural Heritage, we call on the Government to recognise production and serving of traditional British cask ale as Intangible Cultural Heritage.
According to an email I got from #GrainstoreBrewery, it's Cask Ale Week from 18th September to 28th September. I couldn't actually see it on their website.
Maybe I should order some more Ten Fifty, which they've stopped comparing with #Ruddles County.

Scallywag Premium 4.8% Best Bitter from #HopUnionBrewery.
Brewed just up the road in Brislington (1.6 miles to be exact) the cask is pouring this week at our brewpub on Wells Road. Abetter full-flavoured, smooth, chestnut-coloured ale you'd be hard pushed to find locally...
Drop in and give it a go if you like your brown.
