Current Real Ales

Jimmy Riddle - Dorset Piddle Brewery - "A refreshingly light and full flavoured fruity beer, brown in colour with a subtle hint of chocolate. Perfect session drinking!"

Fossil Fuel - Isle of Purbeck Brewery - "A light amber best bitter with a fresh malt & peppery hop aroma.
Balanced malt & the hop presence lead to a pleasantly dry & clean finish."

Best Bitter (Traditional IPA) - Palmers Brewery - "A full-drinking, well-balanced beer with a delicious hop character, brewed with classic English malted barley."

Black As Yer 'At - Glastonbury Ales - "A traditional richly roasted stout that is simply "black as yer 'at". Delicately hopped to give a dark full-bodied flavour with hints of chocolate and a subtle dry finish."

Winter Berry Ale - Sharp's Brewery - "Winter Berry is a delightfully moreish ale designed to brighten any winter's day...dark ruby in colour with ripe fruit notes and a sweet but refreshing taste. The seasonal ingredients of rosehip and sloe are grown in Cornwall and are complemented by the use of Galena hops and a variety of malts to make this a truly mouth-watering beer."

Dorset Gold - Palmers Brewery - "A refreshing and thirst-quenching golden premium ale, with a palate that's full and fruity and lightly hopped with Kent Goldings."

Special Ale - Sharp's Brewery - "Delicious fruit aromas blended with inviting roasted notes. The mouth feel is succulent with dried fruit, malt and delicate hop bitterness. The finish is lingering and warm with fruit and malt notes."

Real Cider & Perry

Equinox - Mr Whitehead's Cider Company - "Equinox is a light and easy drinking Medium cider, it has both dry and sweet qualities, coupled with a strength that makes it an excellent session cider."

Westons 1st Quality Cider - Westons Cider - "This medium still cider has a well balanced fruity flavour and is smooth and mellow with a clean apple finish, leaving the mature taste of bittersweet apples on the palate. Unlike the cloudy scrumpies this is filtered to be clear and bright."

Orchard Pig Medium Cider - Orchard Pig - "This is still and wonderfully refreshing. It is a soft, medium cider with a fruity, clean flavour and a lingering apple finish. Drink it as an aperitif, with meals and at parties for a real experience of Somerset fine quality cider."

Blakeney Red Perry - Hecks Farmhouse Cider - "A medium single variety perry made with Blakeney Red pears.
Cloudy, light yellow appearance. Dry perry aroma. Great taste and a smooth finish - sweet but not too sweet with a good aftertaste."

Good medium flavour with a bit of sweetness and a drying finish."

Snakecatcher Scrumpy (Medium) - New Forest Cider - "Seriously strong, intense in flavour and character, being aged in spirit barrels. The ignorant might call it rough, but the knowledgeable connoisseur would consider it a robust English artisanal country beverage."

Westons Old Rosie Scrumpy - Westons Cider - "This still cider is allowed to settle out naturally after fermentation resulting in a truly old fashioned, full flavoured, appley, cloudy scrumpy, with a well balanced medium dry character."

Premium Perry - Broadoak Cider - "Pale green gold perry - medium with a subtle flavour."
