Making Waves

Our first beer Standing Wave is bottled, kegged and hits the shelves - selling out almost straight away. 5% West Cost IPA, it’s citrussy and very hoppy!

    Great beer, good label,
    but with a typo in the formula - lambda should be in
    the (), like in (1) on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standing_wave :-)

    Cheers - a maths nerd here.

Here are details of all our beers to date:   Cloud Chamber - New England IPA A cloudy, New England IPA full of juicy tropical flavours of pineapple, mango, grapefruit and passion fruit from Azacca and Cashmere hops and a special East Coast yeast.  ABV: 6%, IBU: 20, Hops: Azacca, Cashmere. A cloud chamber is a sealed vacuum vessel containing super-saturated alcohol vapour (generally not beer!) used as a particle detector to visualise the passage of ionizing radiation. Energetic particles knock electrons off gas molecules, creating a trail of ions, around which condensation droplets form as a visible cloud track. Dark Material - Chocolate Empirical Stout  A powerful, warming imperial stout packed full of rich, indulgent chocolate flavours. A beer to savour on a chilly night. ABV: 8%, IBU: 70, Hops: Fuggles. Dark Matter is thought to account for some 85% of the matter in the universe. It is extremely difficult to detect, because it does not appear to interact with with ordin...

Easy as Pi

  Just in time for Halloween, Thanksgiving and the cold Autumn nights, our next seasonal treat, Pumpkin π , is now available. A delicious amber ale flavoured with pumpkin, ginger, nutmeg, cinnamon and vanilla. It's the taste of autumn. Beer is not just for drinking... It's also great for cooking and baking with. Our seasonal spiced ale, Pumpkin π , adds a fantastic extra dimension to a fruit cake - try this recipe from Isobel Dunnet-Joye, it's delicious! 440ml Pumpkin π ale 500g dried fruit (any combination, but we like a mix of currants, raisins, sultanas, cranberries, dates) 120g soft brown sugar or coconut sugar 300g flour (any, but Isobel recommends a mix of spelt and ground almond) 3 large eggs, beaten 1 tsp baking powder 1-3 tsps spices (cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice or other to taste) Soak the dried fruit in the beer for at least 24 hours.  Combine all the ingredients.  Put in a lined and greased 8" (20cm) tin.  Bake in the oven at 140C for 60-90 mins until cook...

Doing the Can Can

Our long-awaited canning machine has now arrived!  Like most craft breweries, we’re moving over to packaging our beer in cans. Why? Aluminium cans keep the beer far better than glass bottles – they are totally lightproof and air-tight (which bottles are not). Light and air are two of beer’s worst enemies! Beer in cans chill in the fridge far quicker than bottles – more convenient and energy-saving. Cans do not smash if they are dropped – glass bottles, not so much! Cans used in the 70s could taint beer with a metallic taste. Modern aluminium cans are lined so this doesn't happen these days. Aluminium cans can be recycled indefinitely. 75% of aluminium produced since 1888 is still in circulation today. Recycling a can uses 95% less energy than producing a new one. A 500ml glass bottle weighs c.300g, whereas a 440ml aluminium can weighs c.20g. Hence transportation has less environmental impact. We're back to brewing full-speed and getting old favourites and exciting new beers int...
