New and on the bar now! Brewpoints modern take on their favourite style of German l***r, brewed with traditional methods on their state-of-the-art brew kit. A lightly toasted malt profile and crisp finish is perfectly balanced with a zesty aroma from classic German and New Zealand hops. Plus you also get a stamp on the Brewpoint card for every pint purchased! 🍺

Wivenhoe — lock up your daughters, your mums… and possibly your dads. Local hero Matthew Selley is back. 🎤

This Sunday 4th October from 4pm, Matt will be back with us and armed with enough crowd-pleasers to make Monday morning feel like somebody else’s problem. 🎶

He’s local, he’s talented and according to our poster he’s some sort of musical superhero. 🦸

We’re not entirely convinced about the “superhero” bit, but we have seen him handle his instrument rather well. 😏
