FOOD – Party in my Pans
A Bristol based authentic Louisiana eating experience, a spicy crawfish boil that is best shared with friends and loved ones in the spirit of good food and good times.
Winner of the Grillstock “Brand Stomping New” competition 2014 and appearing at pop-ups across the country.
The crawfish (or American crayfish) is a regional delicacy and party favourite throughout the southern United States. Unintentionally released into British waterways, and bossing out the native European crayfish, the crawfish is a tasty titbit that you can eat without guilt as you’re helping restore the natural environment.
The crawfish are professionally caught by the lovely guys at The Crayfish Company, where they are graded and delivered live and snapping so that you get the freshest and tastiest with Party In My Pans.

Hopcraft Brewery in Pontyclun, South Wales, has been in full production for just over a year now and has been in the public eye since mid 2012. It is a partnership of Tom Barlow and Steve Lewis from Pixie Springs and Gazza Prescott from Steel City in Sheffield. Together they have opened up a new 10 barrel brewery to fulfil their needs, a place to make Pixie Springs beverages on a bigger scale, and also for Gaz to have a place to make crazy hoppy liquids.
Considering they’re relatively new, Hopcraft have made quite a number of beers. As their name suggests they’re not afraid of using hops liberally and have a tendency to use them well, a good example of this is their highly drinkable Mosaic Plus, this is a common theme throughout their beers. The guys have also made some pretty exciting, quite different beers such as Graveyard Eyes a Sorachi Aci porter that has wowed staff and customers alike. As they are already demonstrating a high proficiency in their hop use and a pioneering attitude towards making new and interesting beers it seems highly likely we can expect more good things from this brewery.
– IPA Smackdown! – Thursday 29th May
We were all greatly saddened by the loss of the Ultimate Warrior earlier this year and it seemed only appropriate to us at Indy Man Brew House to add our own efforts to the many homages to the late, great famous wrestler. Our friends at Black Jack and Hopcraft agreed. Together we brewed a tasty tribute in the form of a quite delicious Red IPA… only to find out that there was one final challenger the Ultimate Warrior had to face!
Hopcraft had also taken part in another Red IPA collaboration brew with the guys from Northern Monk Brewing Co. and Crafty Monk was the result!
After some investigation we realised that behind the cowl of the Crafty Monk there hid the visage of pretender Brett ‘The Hitman’ Hop! Honour must be satisfied, which of course can mean only one thing.
So we have organised a Smackdown in order for the Ultimate Warrior to prove without any doubt that even posthumously he is capable of making the Ultimate Splash.
Please come, show your support and watch a legend live on… 7pm / Thursday 29th May
