🍺CASK ALE WEEK🍺

Let’s talk GUEST PUMP! 👀🍻

Here at The Malt Shovel, we have a dedicated pump purely for changing things up and bringing you a whole range of different guest cask ales!

Since Re-opening, we’ve had a HUGE variety grace the bar, from bitters to porters, blondes to stouts… some fruity, some rich, some hoppy and some with those delicious coffee notes! ☕🍺

And right now, we’ve got something a little special on…

🍺 SCOUNDREL from Rooster's Brewing Co.
A 4.2% Yorkshire Stout packed with smooth, roasted malt character. Expect lovely notes of coffee, chocolate and roasted grains, balanced with a subtle bitterness that makes it incredibly moreish. A proper sessionable stout that’s full of flavour without being too heavy!

So, come on down, grab a pint and give Scoundrel a try! 🍻

And most importantly… 👀

👇🏻WHAT SHOULD WE PUT ON THE GUEST PUMP NEXT?👇🏻

Give us your recommendations… Brewery, beer or style! We want to know what you’d love to see on the bar next!

🍺DAY 3 OF CASK ALE WEEK🍺

Today we’re turning our attention back to Timothy Taylor's Brewery 🍻

Firstly, we’re incredibly honoured to have been awarded membership to the Timothy Taylor’s Champion Club! 🏆 We’re immensely proud to display this board behind the bar, recognising our commitment to serving their beers to the highest possible standard!

But today, we’re talking BLONDE!💛

Timothy Taylor’s Blonde is a refreshing 3.8% session ale, brewed to be light, crisp and incredibly drinkable. It’s got a delicate hop character, a gentle maltiness and a beautifully refreshing finish, making it the perfect pint when you fancy something a little lighter but still packed with flavour 🌾

And since its arrival following the change from Knowle Spring, it’s certainly proving popular! 👀🍺 It’s quickly becoming a staple on the Malt Shovel bar!

So, we want to know…

👉🏻What are everyone’s thoughts on the new Blonde?
Have you noticed the difference? Are you a fan of the new taste? 💛

And if you’re still yet to try it… what are you waiting for?!

Come on down, grab yourself a seat and sample a perfectly conditioned pint of Timothy Taylor’s Blonde, served exactly how it should be🍺👌

Cask Ale Week continues at The Malt Shovel! 🍻

🍺 DAY 2 OF CASK ALE WEEK! 🍺

Today we’re shining a light on another staple of the Malt Shovel bar that you might not always notice… Theakston Old Peculier! 👀🍻

A true Yorkshire classic from Theakston Brewery , Old Peculier is a rich, dark and distinctive traditional ale. Packed with deep malt character, gentle sweetness and those delicious roasted, fruity notes, it’s a proper pint with plenty of personality! 🍺

And here at The Malt Shovel, we take our cask seriously… ❤️

Our Old Peculier is kept at the perfect cellar temperature, carefully looked after and poured to perfection, exactly how a great cask ale should be served! 🍺

So next time you’re at the bar, why not look past the usual suspects and give this legendary Yorkshire ale a try?

Cask Ale Week… Day 2… Cheers to Old Peculier! 🍻
