Pope’s Yard Beer Tasting at Weindepot

UKCRAFTBEERS.CH in association with Zurich Beer Tour are hosting a tasting evening at The Weindepot. Numbers are limited, and the evening will consist of an introduction to the featured brewer Pope’s Yard and followed by a tasting of seven brews from their range:

Luminaire – Pale Ale 3.9% (1.5dl) 

Four great hops including Goldings and Galaxy give flavours of citrus, passion fruit and pineapple with a classic bitter finish. The blend of pale and extra pale Maris Otter malts let this beer shine out of the glass. Ideally served cold, outside, with a barbecue.

Quartermaster – Best Bitter 4.4% (1.5dl) 

Brewed with a touch of amber and crystal malt, British Bramling Cross and Australian Galaxy hops. Four malts, four hop additions and 4.4% make this one of our most popular traditional beers.

Hibiscus Sour – Sparkling Rosé Sour 4.6% (1.5dl) 

Finest Maris Otter malt, no bittering hops but anexotic aroma hop addition combine with the fantastic floral and berry notes from heaps of hibiscus flowers added into the fermenter. Refreshing, lush and tangy with a rosé hue. Just the thing on a sunny day.

Lacerta – Dry-hopped English Pale Ale 3.9% (1.5dl) 

The blend of Maris Otter malt, modern British Olicana and recently revived Keyworth’s Early hops produce flavours of mango, melon, bitter orange and sweet pineapple. The same malt bill as our ‘Lacerta U.S.’ with hops from this side of the pond.

Club Hammer – Chocolatey London Stout 5.5% (1.5dl) 

Voted CAMRA’s ‘Hertfordshire Beer of the Year 2016’. Based on old style Stout Porters. Brewed with black malt, chocolate malt and roasted barley. Its sweetness and roast richness are balanced by bitterness and aroma from select British hops. 

Fire & Copper – Double ESB 7.4% (1.5dl) 

We’ve boosted our ESB to the next level. More bold British malt, fermented with a classic ale yeast and a solid bitterness. Aromas and flavours of vintage seville orange marmalade, honey, toffee, malt loaf and fruitcake.

Rebel Girl – Export India Porter 9.9% (1.5dl) 

A forceful, dark, tropical ale. The scent of ginger cake rises from the glass as flavours of seville orange and mango merge with caramel and cocoa. A beer that does not obey rules but is deliciously drinkable. Brewed by Barbara to mark International Women’s Day. Vegan-friendly
