– Against the Grain Tap Takeover // November 5th

AGAINST THE GRAIN TAP TAKEOVER // Thursday November 5th 2015 // Port Street Beer House // free entry

We are delighted to be housing a tap takeover from Against the Grain – Louisville, Kentucky’s finest. They recently did a star turn at this year’s Indy Man Beer Con, and we’ve long been fans of their brews. It’s rare that we get a keg of Against the Grain (though you’ll always find us holding big bottles in the fridge) so imagine our joy that this tap takeover will present us, and you, with EIGHT AtG beers on keg.

Against the Grain are modern masters in making big punchy, flavourful beers. In their own words,

“At Against The Grain we will always have an offering that puts hop flavor in the forefront. If you love citrusy, floral, fruity, herbal, piney, ‘resiny’, and some bitterness, this is the beer for you! We brew variations of beers that accentuate the distinct flavors that make hopheads go crazy. From the classic, subtle hop flavors in pale ale to, in your face, enamel peeling, double IPA’s, we do them all! Once a hopster…always a hopster.”

Can’t wait. Here’s what you’ve got to look forward to…

– Mad Hatter Imperious IPA KEG Launch

Thursday 20th August 2015 // 7pm // Port Street Beer House // free entry

Delirious to announce the launch of Mad Hatter’s 12% 2015 imperial IPA, IMPERIOUS IPA, on keg at Port Street.

Liverpool’s Mad Hatter are hailing Imperious as a 12% monster IPA. Containing loads, and I quote “LOADS”, of Simcoe, Citra & Centennial hops – that’s 20 kilos of hops per 400 litres of beer, fact fans. Said hops have been added at five different points to the boil, and twice dry hopped.

The new Imperious boasts a lighter, cleaner malt body than Mad Hatter’s previous Imperious output with Vienna & Munich malts clearing the way for the hop party to shine.

As if the Imperious blockbuster wasn’t enough, we shall also be hosting a MAD HATTER MINI TAP TAKEOVER with at least four (and maybe more) kegs on the board. And as if THAT wasn’t enough, we will also be joined on the evening by Mad Hatter lynchpins, Paul & Jonny!

Join us on Thursday 20th August 2015 from 7pm to launch the good ship Imperious IPA & friends!

On KEG we will have…

– A day of board games
