TEME VALLEY

Hearth Warmer (6%): Black, malty winter brew. Smells - in the nicest possible way - like that bonfire night aroma, when you're standing around the fire, hot dog in hand, watching the kids run around with their sparklers. Truly a winter warmer. (DN)

THEAKSTON

Best Bitter (3.8%): A fine, golden coloured beer, with a full flavour that lingers pleasantly on the palate. With a good bitter-sweet balance this beer has a robust hop character described as citrus and spicy. It’s a refreshing and very satisfying pint — noted for the aroma of its Fuggles and dry hopping strain Golding to add to its characteristic Theakston aroma. (brewery notes)
Black Bull Bitter (3.9%): A bright amber bitter, well attenuated to give a crisp, refreshingly dry taste. Late and dry-hopping with Golding hops ensures a pronounced citrus fruit flavour and aroma. (Brewery notes)

Lightfoot Bitter (4.1%): This is a very pale, straw coloured ale, that uses a special malt to produce a pronounced ‘peach-like’ element to the aroma and palate, complemented by a floral hop character. Brewed using a blend of traditional Fuggle, Golding and Bramling Cross hops. (Brewery notes)
Masham Ale (6.5%): A deceptively smooth, full bodied, strong ale, tawny in colour and exhibiting a beautifully rich balanced character of malt, fruit and Fuggle hops. (Brewery notes)

Paradise Ale (4.2%): A full-bodied ale using pale ale malt and an exotic blend of old — and new — world, full of hop flowers including Cascade to give a light, lusciously flavoured fruity taste. (Brewery notes)

TITANIC

Anchor (4.1%): The first beer the brewery ever produced, back in 1985. To celebrate its 20th anniversary it has changed the name of the original beer, Premium, to Anchor. A regular finalist at the Great British Beer Festival and multiple winner of West Midlands Beer of the Year, this impressive brown/gold beer has a strong fruity aroma.

Butler's Revenge (4.9%): In the great houses the butler was responsible for the brewing of fine ales for all the household — weak 'Boy's Bitter' for the labourers and strong ales for the masters.

Eight Bells (4.5%): Rung to signify the end of the last watch of day. This tawny coloured robust beer is honey sweet, but balanced with delightful hop character. (Brewery notes)
Engine Room (4.6%): Like the engine room that has power to spare, sitting at the heart of this beer, smoothly letting the flavours push forwards onto the tongue, sweetness and bitterness alike slip from this bright amber beer and leave a delightful bittersweet wake. (Brewery notes)

Mind the smoothness: it will creep up on you. If you like old-fashioned brown beer, here is the treasure of the deep. (Brewery notes)
Iceberg (4.1%): A combination of Maris Otter pale malt and fine wheat malt give this refreshing beer real zest. Add fresh-tasting Yakima Galena and Cascade hops and you get a fantastic wheat beer that will hole any passing thirst. (Brewery notes)
Last Porter Call (4.9%): The porters scurry around loading the passengers' bags and building up a tremendous thirst. When the day is done their preferred tipple is, like this beer, dark, strong and well rounded. The richness of this rotund beer is brought to an even keel by the late addition of Goldings hops. (Brewery notes)
Lifeboat (4%): A fruit and malty, red-brown, bittersweet beer with a slight caramel character. The finish is dry and fruity. (Brewery notes)

Triple Screw (4.5%): Hoppy, malty and smooth — a three-pronged attack on the taste buds. (Brewery notes)

Wreckage (7.2%): This sweet, malty winter ale has a port-like aroma. Oranges and lemons play around the edges of the tongue while dried fruit and cinnamon drive home the wonderful warming effect. A walnut aftertaste completes this slice of Christmas in a glass. (Brewery notes)
