It’s the last day of Sober October! 🍂

Whether you’ve done the full month or just fancied a few alcohol-free nights, the good news is the sober options at the Shakespeare don’t end tomorrow.

We’ve got a great line-up of Lyre’s non-alcoholic spirits behind the bar all year round including Coffee Originale, Amarettic Italian Spritz & Dry London Spirit

So whether you’re keeping it going, cutting back, or just fancy something without the booze, there’s always something delicious to drink!

Fresh on cask today: a delicious gluten-free 3.8% IPA with pure hop progression and classic West Coast power.

Bristol B**r Factory blends Krush and Cryopop, bringing a new-wave tropical groove with stonefruit undertones, and Idaho 7 adds bold citrus and orange.

This b**r is uber pale and dangerously easy, it’s built for the drink-and-repeat session, and nobody has to miss out.

It’s Green Hop season 💚

For most of the year, b**r is brewed with dried hops. For a few short weeks each autumn, brewers get to use hops straight off the bine, often in the brewery within hours of being picked. These hops are wet, fresh and full of oils that drying would normally knock back. The result is a b**r that’s grassy, bright and a little bit wild, and it simply can’t be made at any other time of year.

Our first b**r of the green hop season is Verdant Brewing Co Fresh Hop, which is 4.4% pale ale brewed with East Kent Golding from Redsell Hops in Faversham, one of the county’s longstanding family hop farms.

As with all green hop b**rs, there is a very limited supply so make sure not to miss out!

We’ve all said it and now, you can properly mean it.

Whiplash B**r make some incredible AF options and Never Drinking Again is no different.

It’s a hazy, unfiltered IPA that looks like a glass of fresh orange juice, with New Zealand hops bringing a juicy hit of gooseberry, mango and apricot. Soft, creamy and smooth, with just enough bitterness to keep it honest.

Non-alcohol options should have to compromise and if you are a fan of an IPA, this is the perfect option.

And just like that, Po' Boy , our wonderful neighbours' season has come to an end, with their final day of business being tomorrow! I know, we are gutted too!

Pictured, by Joe & Charlotte , is our staffs most favourite order - the cajun fish & chips. We all order it at every meeting, and that mango & lime sauce pairs the flavours of the cajun and the sea just so delectably.

We open as usual today from 12-11pm, and as always, you’re welcome to bring your Po’Boy order up to the pub to enjoy with your drinks!

Po’Boy will be open today 12-3pm & 5-7pm and tomorrow, Sunday, for their last hoorah from 12-3pm or until they sell out so make sure to get down early to avoid disappointment!

We will miss you! See you in six months (or so)! 😍
