DYNAMITE VALLEY PIONEER

500ml | 4.3% ABV

A continental style wheat beer brewed with a definitive orange taste. These big tastes go hand in hand with stronger European cheeses such as Brie de Meaux and Manchego.

BLACK TOR BLONDE

500ml | 3.8% ABV

A lighter, refreshing blonde pale ale. The crispness bounces off subtle, lightly flavoured cheese such as Cornish YargComte and Dorset Blue Vinney.
