In parts of Africa it hunts up to 70% of its prey and is more successful in its kill rate that the Lion. Early settlers referred to it as the Wolf. Many names that we take for granted carry the name, for example, Wolfsberg in the Cederberg and a wine are just few that are named after the Hyaena. Wolf traps are found in many parts of the Karoo.

We can boldly say that this hoppy red is unlike any other you’ve tried. Hopped-up to the max, deep ruby in color, with a smooth as silk mouthfeel and an almost pungent piney aroma. Malts bone-up their magic with a hearty, biscuity, almost rustic touch of flavor and a slightly bitter fruitiness. A creamy head always tops it off. SILVER AWARD WORLD BEER CUP - IMPERIAL RED ALE 2014

Bone Warmer Amber Ale, brewed in the “strong ale” tradition, is a beer of great character, with exceptional malt flavor and warming alcohol content. Historically, brewers often drew three different runs from the same barley mash. The first, used for strong ale or “best beer,” had the most flavor, color and fermentable sugars, and produced beer with the most alcohol. The second was used for a less strong “table beer,” and the third, a lighter and cheaper “small beer.” Our Bone Warmer is brewed the same way, using only the first runnings from an extraordinarily thick, strong mash of Idaho 2-Row Metcalfe and Harrington barley malt, along with dark German munich and caramel malts. We subtly spiced it with “noble” character American Perle and Mt. Hood hops, fermented it at cool temperatures and cold-conditioned it for smoothness and drinkability. The resulting ale is the color of roasting chestnuts, voluptuously malty, only slightly sweet, with a hint of toffee and a warming dry finish. It’s an ideal accompaniment to rich meaty stews, wild game, roasted fowl or root vegetables, and aged cheddars. Alcohol by volume 8.2%.

Each year we produce a limited amount of Bonfire Imperial Porter to complement the winter season. Bonfire has a medium-full body, with complex coffee, chocolate and dark caramel flavors.

Bonfire will please lovers of big, smooth dark beers. Try our winter warmer – and set the night on fire.

Bonfire Ale steals from the winter fires its gift of dark barley and gentle hops to provide you, beer drinker, with this delightful winter treat.

Bonfire Boy is brewed seasonally for the November 5th celebrations that Lewes is renowned for. Originally called 'Firecracker' and brewed to commemorate the gallant work of the Fire Brigade during the fire at the brewery in July 1996. The label depicts the uniform of the Cliffe Fire Brigade circa 1880. Tasting notes: A dark amber beer with a full malty palate and a slightly burnt, bitter aftertaste. A small quantity of black malt is used to impart the suggestion of smoke.

The combination of malts complement the generous amount of late-addition American hops, creating a perfect balance between the earthiness of the rye and the resinous hoppy aroma.

We brewed this Hefeweizen, the most beloved of German beer styles, as a tribute to Dietrich Bonhoeffer, the German Lutheran pastor and hero who actively opposed the Nazi regime during WWII.
