Summer Ale

Drover pours pale hazy golden in colour. Juicy citrus hop aromatics on the nose from lashings of Lemondrop & Bavaria Mandarina hops used late and as dry hop. A large amount of wheat in the Grist delivers a dry and silky mouthfeel. We have kept the bitterness low to make a real thirst slaker of a beer.
SEASONAL BEERS & SINGLE BATCHES
We brew limited edition beers inspired by seasonal ingredients, flavours and food pairings – both on our own and eventually in collaboration with others. It’s an opportunity to showcase the versatility of our brewery and brewers, scratch the itch to experiment, collaborate with friends and showcase the progressive spirit of modern British beer.
We release new 'single-batch' brews monthly. Some in keg, some in cask. Expect to see highly sessionable summer ales, wheat ales and a new lagers in coming months, moving on to ambers and Autumn hoppy wonderfulness come Autumn and finally to dark richness in the winter.
