The Pale Hoppy brewed in memory of Alan
Special beer brewed up in memory of Alan.
Alan Reeve 25/09/1946 - 11/09/2018
A special super hopped version of ‘The Pale Hoppy 4% One’. A good friend and long time regular at our pub 'The Wild Boar’ this beer was originally brew with him in mind and he was roped into tasting it during it's conception a few years ago. Alan was somewhat of the bench mark for pale hoppy beers. In fact his opinion on which of the best of the 10 real ales on the bar was held in such high regard that, if he was in having a pint when people arrived they would simply order at the bar 'I'll have what Alan's drinking'. He wore his accolade with modest pride right up until the point when returning to the bar the beer had ran out because everyone else had drank it all. We hope this is a beer that he would be proud to have his name on!
Mother's Milk Stout
New Milk Stout, Out Now!
We launched of our new milk stout a couple of weeks ago with something new for us, We tried a Unfined craft keg (vegetarian-friendly) version of this new milk stout. It went down really well (bit on the cold side for some cask drinkers tastes) but very successful overall. We now have it in cask for you to try and all feed back is welcome.
If you would like to be one of the first to try this new brew come to our pub (The Wild Boar in Warwick) or will be on this week (from 17/10) at (The Old Post Office)
Please leave your feedback about the beer at the bar as we would love to know what you think (apart from 'it's not Titanic stout').
Short & Curly
An attractive golden beer. 4.5% Vol.
Golden brew, made with the addition of lager and Vienna malt to create a beautiful warm gold hue. Slightly sweet taste, balanced off with British Olicana and Admiral hops.
