Get Crafty – Ciders & Beers

Craft beers have become more popular over the last few years, which allows for the consumer market to be introduced to hand-crafted and specially selected beers.  Not all craft beers are made equal, just like with wine, there are different types of craft beer, such as ales and ciders as well as different types of ales.

The Wine Village stocks twelve types of craft beers and ciders from five different producers and are always on the lookout for new products and producers. Wild Beast Ale is one of the newest producers to be sold from the fridge, with Amber and Honey ale to choose from.

Local producer, Birkenhead Breweries, is a firm favourite, with their Honey Blonde and Pilsner selling fast. Much like wine, these beers are tasted and rated according their taste, appearance and smell. The Karusa Caveman’s Dry craft beer is a darker, fuller beer with hints of espresso and dark chocolate, whereas the Birkenhead Honey blonde is a lighter, fruitier beer.

The ciders in store are apple, pear and brandy cask, from William Everson, with their own distinct flavours and are refreshing. The Dragon Fiery Ginger Beer is an alcoholic ginger beer, which goes to show that there is always something new to try out.
