We deliver cask fresh beer locally so that everyone can drink real ale direct from a cask. Order some stay@home beer for barbeques or family get-togethers and we'll deliver them fresh from the cask for you to enjoy. We have a range of 5Ltr mini casks available most weeks. Beer for the mini casks is poured direct from the firkin so there's always something fresh to drink.
Orders placed with us before 1pm will be delivered on the same day, otherwise we'll get the beer to you the following day.
Keep the beer cool, but save your fridge space as it is best enjoyed cool but not cold - around 10-12C is perfect. Once the mini casks have been opened - drink within seven days and keep the top valve sealed. The empty casks can be recycled over and over - place them in your blue bin.
Producing bottled beer in small volumes is a labour of love and can be achieved in a number of ways, we choose to use a method adopted by heritage breweries that also follows the German beer purity laws. This process, called Krausening, allows us to produce the conditioning (carbonation) within the bottle and gets as close to a cask conditioned ale as is possible.
The advantages of using this method are the beer feels silkier and has better head retention, flavours can be more complex and the customer can choose to drink clear beer by pouring slowly or with a haze (and extra flavour) by pouring the beer with gusto.
As this traditional process is slow and time consuming, you're unlikely to find this style of beer on sale in supermarkets. We have bottled conditioned our core range of ales and hope you enjoy trying them...these beers are best enjoyed cool so save the space in the fridge and have a few in your shed......
