– Mad Monk Tap Takeover
Mad Hatter x Northern Monk tap takeover and collaboration launch / Thursday 24th March 2016 / 5pm onward and upward
Very pleased to announce the most exciting meeting of minds since the Leeds-Liverpool canal, which is coincidentally from whence these two breweries hail. Northern Monk (Leeds) and Mad Hatter (Liverpool) combine to become Mad Monk and take over Port Street for one night only.
Primarily Northern Monk and Mad Hatter are here to launch their new collaboration, an 11% Salted Caramel Imperial Mild. Consider our interest levels spiked! We can’t wait to taste it. It’ll be pouring on cask on the night but lo, that is not all…
Both Mad Hatter and Northern Monk will be bringing 3 x kegs apiece and 2 x casks. That’s 11 beers in total (including the collaboration), maths fans. Mad Hatter are rarely making cask beers these days so we can’t wait to see what they bring. Northern Monk, of course, are modern UK caskmasters so we are equally excited for their haul. And that’s to say nothing of the keg! Beer list coming soon…
– Cloudwater Spring Summer 2016 Launch
WEDNESDAY 9th MARCH 2016 / from 5pm / Port Street Beer House / free entry
Way, way back in the heady days of Spring 2015, a new brewery baby was born to the world. Cloudwater was the name and lo, hasn’t (s)he grown in a year. Cloudwater’s very first beers of Spring 2015 beers debuted here at Port Street and so we are delighted to be the venue for the second coming, the much anticipated Spring Summer 2016 launch.
Hot off the heels of the seismic DIPA v2 comes Cloudwater Spring Summer v2 beers en masse, and if their insatiable Winter wardrobe was anything to go by then we are in for an absolute gifting.

– 5th Birthday Celebrations
5 beers, 5 Years
January 25-31st
Collaboration Launch night: Thursday 28th January: 7pm-late
In January 2010 something exciting happened, Port Street Beer House opened its doors for the first time! Since then there have been hundreds of Meet the Brewer events, over 30+ Tap Takeovers, 20+ Collaboration brews and the birth of our sister Indy Man Brew House, 10+ Portable Street Beer House events and 4 Indy Man Beer Conventions.
In an ever-growing market of beer houses Port Street has been there. So to celebrate 5 years in the big game we are throwing a week-long party, highlighted by our 5 years, 5 beers launch party on Thursday 28th January.
Every year, to celebrate our birth we collaborate with someone special to make something special. Previous years have seen a Rosemary, Red Pepper and Fennel Wit with Mad Hatter, a Sour Cherry and Pink Peppercorn Porter with Outstanding, a Saison DuPont brewed with Summer Wine, Magic Rock, Redwillow, Dark Star & Quantum and a Satsuma IPA with Blackjack. This year we thought we would challenge ourselves even further and brew 5 beers for the one night. We are working hard to bring you the following very special brews:
1) Arbor – 4 Hop Bomb Pale
2) Vocation – Citra & Mosaic Pale
3) Cloudwater – Tea Sour
4) Northern Monk – Imperial Mild
5) Runaway, Squawk & Track – Grapefruit Pale
The rest of the week will hold special curated cask and keg lines featuring some of our favourite local, national and international breweries, as well as some specially matured bottles from our cellar that we have been hiding away for a special occasion.
