starts this Friday 11/10 and runs until Sunday 20/10 and you’ll never guess who’s decided to participate this year.

As you all love our cocktails already we thought we’d provide something a little different.

Introducing the „Craft Beer Iron Curtain“

Made with Dark Matter Spiced Rum, Iron Brew Sour and fresh lime juice we have created the perfect mix of Scottish products and of course BEER (in a cocktail!?). A non-alcoholic version is also available.

We cannot wait to start slinging this on Friday and if you don’t have your wristbands already go get them or you’ll miss out on a once in a lifetime opportunity to get this banger for £5.

What a time to be alive!

The Hanging Bat are proud to announce that we will be one of the few bars in the UK let alone the world that will be serving Cantillon‘s Zwanze 2024.

We couldn’t be more excited, we will have 5 kegs pouring from Cantillon pouring alongside the Zwanze beer and a couple bottles on offer all day also. While some kegs may be on all day the Zwanze will be officially poured from 8pm to coincide with a 9pm pouring in Brussels.

Zwanze is very limited so we will be only serving 1, 1/3rd pint per person to make sure that as many people can try it as possible. There will be approximately 140 servings (maybe more, maybe less depending on the state of the beer).

Make sure you get down for 8pm to grab yourself a cheeky 1/3 of one of Belgium‘s rarer beers!

Hail The Bat 🦇

*TTO and Beer Release*

This Friday 15/12 we will be hosting a tap takeover of good friends holding over 8 kegs and nearly all of the latest release bottles. Whether you like their golden fruited sours, the cheeky barrel aged Flanders reds or their new stout or IPAs we will have something for everyone.

We will also be introducing the long awaited 3rd release of our x Barrel-Aged Project Hail the Bat.

Hail the Bat III 8.4%

Cherry BA Flanders Red with Scottish Honeyberries

We picked two standout barrels of our aged Flanders Red for this beer. These had been aging in whisky casks which had previously held the beer-soaked whole cherries producing our beloved Unholy Mountain kriek.
We blended these barrels with a smaller portion of beer brewed and aged at the Hanging Bat in Edinburgh, which were aged in a quarter casks. The oxidative nature of aging in small barrels lent a rounded acidity when blended with the cherry barrels. We then refermented this blend on 200g/l of whole Scottish honeyberries for two months.

This is a very limited release as there were only 780 bottles made. We will have enough to hopefully get us through the weekend on keg but we foresee that it will sell fast. We will also have bottles available to sit-in and for takeaway.

Hail the Goat and the Bat!

03/08/2023

*TAP TAKEOVER 04/08*

It’s the start of the Fringe! So we are celebrating in style, we will have a 10 line TTO with our friends to celebrate the launch of the Fringe and their Fringe Pale Ale “Never Fight A Bat With A Perm” alongside an 160 Shilling made with (cask and keg) and many other beers.

Join us and to drink many new and old Overtone releases. 🍻🦇
