Awards Presentation

Last Friday Dave and Jen were invited by the East Lancashire branch of CAMRA to the 2nd Burnley Beer Festival where Dave was presented with a certificate for our Dark Mild.  It has been awarded gold in the mild category of the Champion Beer of Britain North West Regional Competition which was judged at the Clitheroe beer festival.  Dave was presented the award by Martin Snelling.

A great night was had and again we would like to thank everyone at the festival for their generous hospitality.  Pictures of the entire festival can be seen at http://www.whitetigerphotography.co.uk/bbf2013fridayindex.html

Banktop goes International

On Friday the brewery was packed with the friends and family of Mikey as they prepare to say goodbye to him with a pint and a sing song as he jets off on an adventure to Australia.

 

Everything about him will be missed!!

Bank Top Brewery Presents The Wrestling Series.

Inspired by David and Ian's wrestling past, each month we will be releasing a new beer named after a famous wrestling hold.  Every month throughout 2013 a new beer will be released and a percentage from their sales will go directly to Sharples Wrestling Club.  The money raised will be used to buy new equipment and make improvements to the clubs training base.

So far the series has included:

• Grappler (3.7%) - Brewed using a new British hop variety this refreshing session bitter subtly combines delicate berry flavours with a soft floral bouquet.
• Back Bridge (3.8%) - An easy drinking pale bitter with a crisp hoppy, citrus aftertaste.
• Quarter Nelson (4.0%) - A pale straw bitter with a sharp bitterness and some herbal notes, followed by a clean refreshing dry hopped finish.
• Chancery (3.9%) - A crisp amber beer brewed with a combination of New Zealand and American hops

And May's beer will be...
