Here are some of the tasty beers we expect to be serving (subject to availability):

From Yonder Brewing in Radstock:

• Caramel Frappe Stout – The ice-cold coffee shop classic. Freshly roasted coffee beans, sweet caramel and rich vanilla
• Pink Grapefruit Paloma Sour – Juicy pink grapefruit, zesty lime and a soft salt snap. Sharp, citrusy and refreshing.
• Tropical Mango Pale Ale – Clean and crisp, fruit-forward pale ale with tropical mango. Gold-medal winner at the SIBA Regional Independent Beer Awards.

From Bluntrock Brewery in Rock:

• Chub Pale Ale – Talus and Sabro hops, slightly lower hopping than usual, for delicate aromas of sherbet and coconut, and flavours of lemon zest and shortbread. Rounded off with a subtle bitterness.
• Optimus Brian 2 – Heavily inspired by Little Creatures Pale Ale, OB is a light golden pale ale, with some gentle malt complexity and those classic pineapple, white grape and pine aromas from the staring hop duo; Enigma and Vic Secret.
• Banjovial – A sessionable 4.2% pale ale with plenty of hop character from US Cascade – interesting enough for you to want another, but not an overpowering distraction from a good time with friends.
• Moon Juice IPA – It’s an absolute creamer of an IPA, with some of the thickest hop aromas we’ve ever gotten from a Bluntrock beer
• Camping Beer – Featured malts include Crystal, Cara, Brown and Marris Otter to create a warming, sticky body which the Centennial hop cuts straight through, giving you a comforting slap around the face with its concise bitterness.
• Nor’Hop from Moor Beer – When Moor first brewed this Citra-hopped pale over 20 years ago, it was among the very first of its kind in the UK. Two decades on, the recipe has been refined — crisper, brighter and better than ever. Vibrant citrus and tropical fruit, perfected through time.

So, gather your friends and prepare to soak up the music and enjoy a pint (or two).
