Crosby's Kitchen & CocktailBeer

European export style Lager. Well balanced for great drinkability. Because Marquette has significantly more malt backbone, finishing hops give exceptional aroma and taste.

For decades, it is our custom to give the lovers a special beer for Christmas. A mixture of different malts ensures the amber-like color and rich flavor. Especially during the cold season is this full-bodied, highly drinkable beer even bigger crowd.

With a rank befitting its strength, Admiral Lublin’s Imperial Pilsner stands frothy heads above its contemporaries. We outfitted our brewship with 100% Polish hops (Lublin, Junga and Sybilla). Splashed upon a brilliant, golden backdrop of Pilsen malt, these spicy, fruity hops impart a flavor profile similar to German noble hops but with a little extra character, Na zdrowie!

A blend of honey and boysenberries. The boysenberries and honey balance each other, this mead pairs well with any dish. The latest batch is made with EVEN more boysenberries, which adds even more fruit notes... YUMMY!

This is a cloudy pale beer with lots of bitter orange aroma and flavour. Brewed with a Belgian white beer yeast, wheat, oats and malted barley and gently hopped with Hallertau and flavoured with Indian Coriander and bitter orange peel. Witbiers break all the rules that modern brewing has thrown up around itself. They use raw wheat, they add things other than hops, like coriander and orange peel to the kettle and they serve the beer cloudy.Typical examples: Hoegaarden, St. Bernardus Witbier, Kira Wit.

Head Brewer Fergus Fitzgerald explains, “Diamond Ale is brewed with Pale Ale and Premium Cara malts, with Sovereign hops and locally-sourced honey. It’s a 4.1% abv amber gold beer with a sweet, honeyed, floral aroma. On the palate, it has a slight floral sweetness balanced by biscuity malt and crisp bitterness.” Brewed to celebrate the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee in 2012, the recipe for our Diamond Ale is based on last year’s Wedding Ale. The tradition of honey beers to celebrate weddings is said to have given us the term ‘honeymoon’. Whether there is any truth in this or not, we’re not sure, it seemed like a good excuse to us!

A light golden beer with subtle citrus and grassy hop aromas, dry and refreshing, with well-balanced bitterness. Brewed with locally sourced barley, grown and malted in East Anglia and English Boadicea hops. East Green is a pale blonde beer that began life as an effort to produce an environmentally responsible beer that had flavour and integrity in equal balance. We wanted to design a beer that uses a minimum amount of energy without compromising on quality. We use Pale Ale malted barley grown and malted in East Anglia, and Boadicea hops, which are grown in Suffolk’s only commercial hop yard. We chose Boadicea as not only is it available locally but it is also an aphid resistant hop. Aphids, as anyone who has a hop plant growing in their garden will know, love hops, and so aphicides are sprayed during the season. Boadicea is naturally resistant to aphids so this cuts down on the amount of pesticides that have to be used. All that aside, we also think it is a great hop. It has a fantastic grassy lemon quality that works so well with this beer. We use the hops at 3 stages during the brewing process in order to maximise the flavour we get from it.

This is a 4.3% abv copper-coloured ale with gloriously hoppy, floral and herbal aromas which follow through on the palate, where it’s balanced by the biscuity fullness of the malts and a dry tart bitterness. It is brewed with Pale Ale and Crystal malts and Fuggle hops which are added at several different stages of the brewing process. Serving Suggestion – Great with herb crusted roast lamb Adnams Extra Special Bitter was first brewed back in 1990. It was brought back by popular demand in 2011 following its successful relaunch for Cask Ale Week in April 2010.

Flame Runner is brewed with ingredients sourced from each of the five continents. It’s a clean and refreshing 3.9% pale ale with a spicy citrus and subtle ginger aroma and a good malty backbone balanced by an orange peel bitterness. We’ve used malted barley from Europe, hops from Australasia and spices from Africa, Asia and America. At Adnams, we couldn’t let an event of such epic prop0rtions go without marking it with our own iconic beer. As our Flame Runner demonstrates, at Adnams we love an excuse to celebrate.

This beer is brewed with a German top fermenting yeast, Munich and Pilsner malts and hopped with Spalt hops. This beer is fermented at a high temperature and then lagered to allow the beer to mellow and condition. Brewed as part of our Handcrafted World beers range to emulate examples such Küppers and Reissdorf.

At 4.5% abv, this Pale Ale has a good assertive pithy bitterness and a malty backbone. It is brewed with a selection of malts – Pale Ale, Rye Crystal and Cara – we use Citra, and a blend of other American hop varieties to create some great citrus flavours

This is a amber beer with a spicy, lemon, grassy aromas which follow through on the palate, good sweetness and mouth-feel from the malt to balance the lemon rind bitterness with a dry finish. Brewed with Pale Ale and Cara Malt and hopped with Green Bullet. Most beers are brewed with more than one hop variety, and one or more malt styles, in order to create a wide breadth of flavour and aroma. In beer, we don’t often see a single hop variety used in isolation in this way. However, as in winemaking where wine can be made using a single grape variety, Fergus, together with M&B, thought it would be an interesting, and tasty, idea to try and test the conventions of the beer category by concentrating on one distinctive hop.

Tasting notes and ingredients We’ve used lots of hops from North America – Columbus, Centennial, Cascade, Amarillo and Citra – because we just love the delicious, big, bold, citrus and pine flavours and aromas they bring to the beer. To balance out all this hoppy goodness we’ve added Rye, plus some Pale Ale and Cara Malt, to imbue sweetness, body and balance as well as some lovely subtle toffee flavours. Want to know more? The recipe for our Rye IPA was created by Adnams brewer (and certified hop freak) Belinda, who was excited to be able to let her passion for American craft beers shine through in this flavoursome brew. Jack Brand Rye IPA is available for a limited time in 30L kegs in selected outlets. Food Matches Pair our Rye IPA with spicy Mexican dishes or hot Caribbean flavours.
