BOCQ - Blanche de Namur 330ml Bottle
£1.75

Cloudy, smooth and mellow, the Blanche de Namur is a very high-quality wheat beer. From the first sip, you will feel all its roundness and its delicacy that make it an outstanding wheat beer. Blanche of Namur was the daughter of John, Count of Namur. It is told that Magnus IV Eriksson, King of Sweden and Norway, was attracted by the young princess's beauty, when he was travelling to France in search of a prestigious wife. The princess embarked for Scandinavia in August 1335 and was never to see the banks of the Meuse again. She would become Queen of Norway, Sweden and Scania. In memory of her beauty, her sweetness and her delicacy, the Brasserie Du Bocq dedicated a wheat beer to her: The 'Blanche de Namur'.

MEANTIME - London Pale Ale 330ml Bottle

MEANTIME - London Pale Ale 330ml Bottle
£1.49

One hundred and fifty years ago the new bitter beer style, Pale Ale, was so popular that brewers had to import Californian hops to meet demand. Meantime London Pale Ale continues that tradition by combining lots of American Cascade and Centennial hops to give it a complex citrus aroma and bucketsful of local Kentish Goldings to provide the bitterness that makes the style so refreshing. Together they conspire to assail the nose with a complex, heady mix of spearmint, grass and 'hop sack' aromas, fruity citrus flavours and a bitter finish that makes pale ale drinking a truly rewarding experience.
