New BristolWE DON'T SEE OURSELVES AS MAVERICK BREWERS, BUT WE DO LIKE TO TEASE THE BOUNDARIES OF TRADITIONAL BREWING SOMETIMES. OUR 'SUPER DELUXE STOUT OR OUR INDIA RED ALE 'FLAME' WOULD NOT BE CLASSED AS TRUE TO STYLE BY PURISTS BUT WE THINK THEY'RE INCREDIBLE. IN THE SAME BREATHE WE ALSO UNDERSTAND THAT SOMETIMES YOU MAY JUST WANT A TASTY TRADITIONAL BEER LIKE OUR '365' AN EVERYDAY STANDING UP BEER. YOU CAN SEE WE HAVE USED THE WORDS 'HANDS-ON BEERS' ON OUR LOGO. THIS IS NOT JUST SOME CORPORATE MEANINGLESS STRAPLINS, WE MEAN IT. WE LIFT AND TIP UP TO 500KGS OF MALTED BARLEY INTO OUR MASHTUN, BY HAND; AT WHICH POINT WE STIR THE HELL OUT OF IT, BY HAND. BY THE END OF THAT OUR SKIN LEAKS BUT IT'S WORTH IT. WE FEEL PART OF THE PROCESS RATHER THAN JUST OVERSEEING IT. THAT'S JUST THE START OF IT. IT'S WHAT GOES INTO OUR BEERS THAT ARE IMPORTANT. WE USE THE FINEST MALT HOPS AND FRESH YEAST, ALWAYS. AFTER ALL WE CANT BREW SMASHING HANDS-ON BEERS WITH MEDIOCRE INGREDIENTS CAN WE! |
