Holy Vible is a 3.5% session pale fermented with an English ale yeast and dry hopped with American Cascade and Crystal hops, to give flavours and aromas of citrus and soft stone fruits. Expect a modern, silky smooth, easy drinking pale ale that is naturally hazy.
Made with German lager malt, this low bitterness, clean and crisp lager is brewed using German hops, Polaris for bittering and Hallertau Mittelfruh and Saaz hops for aroma.
This naturally hazy, tropical pale ale is dry hopped with Chinook and Columbus hops and flavoured with pineapple and coconut pulp to give our take on Pina Colada. No umbrella needed. Unfined and unfiltered.
A refreshing American Brown Ale. This crisp brown ale is brewed with a good dose of Simcoe dry hops to help provide a well-rounded finish to the beer.
A golden beer brewed with six different varieties of hops, added at six different stages of the brewing process.
An already full-flavoured IPA is made even bigger by using fresh ‘green’ hops infused into the slowly conditioned beer. Designed for those who like their hops as an extreme sport!
A dessert in a glass. This beer is brewed using unfermentable lactose sugar, vanilla beans and plenty of roasted malts to provide a sweet, smooth caramel drinking experience. No blowtorch was used in the making of this beer.
A vigorous fermentation is followed by a long maturation – the beer is brewed in February and then released on the unsuspecting public. A densely rich beer with a dark brown head, it has coffee and berry like aromas and a velvet mouth feel. This beer commands respect and deserves to be savoured slowly.
The brewery’s eponymous former Champion Beer of Britain. A dark, strong and bitter beer that defies classification. The beer boasts a complex malt flavour from the use of Crystal and Chocolate malts.
A black beer brewed with roasted barley malt and challenger hops. Freshly ground Arabica coffee beans, blended especially for Dark Star, are added to the copper for a few minutes after the boil to provide a rich and complementary coffee aroma. NOT EVERYONES CUP OF TEA.
A chestnut bronze-coloured bitter with a smooth mouth feel and freshness; a classic style strong bitter brewed as a Dark Star version of Festive, a former great Sussex beer from King & Barnes.
Brewed with American West Coast style yeast along with Cascade, Centennial and Chinook hops. The low coloured Concerto malt provides a perfect light colour and dryness to compliment the crisp taste and full aroma of the hops.
A Best Bitter brewed in a traditional Sussex style using extra pale Concerto, Crystal and Chocolate malts with East Kent Goldings hops. Typical of Dark Star ales, the Best Bitter relies on the heavy-handed addition of aromatic hops late in the boil.
A blend of Columbus, Chinook, Cascade, Crystal and Warrior aroma hops by the sack full - then dry hopped during conditioning.
An extremely clean drinking pale golden ale with a strong floral aroma and elderflower notes from the Cascade hops. This beer is full bodied and full flavoured yet gentle enough to make it a favourite session beer.
The opposite of a NEIPA. A water profile tailored to enhance a crisp, resinous hop character. Cascade, Crystal, Chinook and Simcoe added throughout the brewing process give a piney, slightly viscous character as found in more traditional American IPA’s. A simple malt content and neutral yeast make this beer all about the hops.
