Thursday was a very busy day of manually canning two more beers for our core range. Watchmaker is a 4.2% British Pale Ale. Hound of Darkness is a 4.5% Brown Porter. Both have been brewed as trials in the past to a great reception from tasters.
Watchmaker is a nod of appreciation toward John Harrison who invented the marine chronometer and lived in Barrow upon Humber many years ago.
The porter has undergone a slight name change to become Hound of Darkness – it was originally named after a Sci-Fi novel – but only Tony spotted this. The name has been tweaked to avoid any potential copyright issues.
