This weekend sees our second ‘Next Stop Hop City’ beer fest at BeerHeadZ Retford, which compliments the Retford Beer Festival which runs Fri 7th – Sun 9th October.
BeerHeadZ Retford will be featuring, over the weekend:
- Atom (Hull: 2013) – Singularity 3.5%
The Atom twist on a mild: Big chunky body, and infused with oak smoked wheat and vanilla, aged on oak. Tons of flavour in a small package. - BlackJack (Manchester: 2012) – Shuffled Deck 3.9%
Golden/Blond Ale. Aromas of citrus, light floral hops. Taste is light bitter, faint malt. Bitter finish. - By the Horns (Merton: 2011) – Hop Air Balloon 4.2%
Aroma and taste combines sweet bready malts, light citrus accents of lemon, straw, some grassy and floral hoppy action. - By the Horns (Merton: 2011) – Stiff Upper Lip 3.8%
A well-balanced mellow malt gives the beer a clear and rich body whilst a myriad of well-selected hops leaves the beer with a wonderfully crisp late bitter finish. - Don Valley (Mexborough: 2016) – Ribble Head 4.0%
Refreshing and crisp Pilsener style beer. - Hawkshead (Staveley: 2002) – Jester 3.7%
Refreshing and hoppy, with complex fruit aromas and flavours. - Marble (Manchester: 1998) – Pint 3.9%
Light body with good bitterness attack balanced with malt, sweet and wet. Grassy notes, highly drinkable. - Shiny (Derby: 2012) – Pail (Calypso Mosaic) 4.0%
Aroma is nice fresh citrus lemon and berries. Hint of tropical fruits, mango and orange. - North Riding (East Ayton: 2015) – Mosaic Pale 4.3%
A massive hit of blueberries with a wallop of citrus in every mouthful. - Tiny Rebel (Newport: 2012) – Cereal Killer 3.0%
With a trio of hops, including the super floral Mosaic for that juicy hit, this is what refreshment is all about! - Totally Brewed (Nottingham: 2014) – Kuruji the Demon Ninja 5.2%
Black IPA: Chocolate, coffee and pine to the finish. Nicely roasted.
