Sunfest charity totals confirmed!

Sunfest charity totals confirmed!

Our charity beer has officially now all SOLD OUT and left the building, and so we are delighted to be able to announce the total monies raised at Sunfest this year!

First up – our Cavendish Cancer Care collaboration brew. We made the biggest batch possible on our brewkit of the deliciously hoppy Triple C, and it’s gone down a treat with pubs as far afield as Newcastle, Coventry and Caernarfon (with plenty being supped in Sheffield too of course!). 10p from every pint sold will be donated straight to the charity – a grand total of £1064. In addition, the Cavendish Cancer Care team were a valuable presence over Sunfest and they raised £939.70 during the festival, from a combination of cake and pork pie sales, the VERY popular tombola (which became almost a competitive sport at times!) and donations from part used beer tickets.

Seven Hills Womens Institute were invited by Cavendish to take over the cake stall for Sunfest Saturday and raised a whopping £600, which will be split equally between Cavendish Cancer Care and Mental Health Action Group Sheffield. Whirlow Hall Farm raised £800 after all costs, to go straight to their charity, Whirlow Hall Farm Trust. And finally, the ever popular Rain Rescue dog show raised £457 on the Sunday of Sunfest, and there were lots of waggy tails on the day, so another great success. Congratulations again to our 2017 Best in Show Champion, Digby!

A huge thank you to all of you who joined us for Sunfest, donated your beer tickets, munched on a hog roast sandwich or a beer brownie, or paraded your pooch in the dog show. And also of course to all of our customers who have had Triple C on their bars in recent weeks.

Keep your eyes peeled for details of further fundraising events later in the year, as our relationship with our official charity partners for 2017, Cavendish Cancer Care, continues!

Cheers,

Laura

Enchanted in Barcelona

Enchanted in Barcelona

As you may have read in our blog post last week, our brewer Jim and myself have recently been over to Barcelona to brew with the team at Instituto de la Cerveza Artesana (ICA), following on from ICA’s trip to us in February where we created our own interpretation of their renowned Encantada beer.

One of the main purposes of our trip was to celebrate this first collaboration, and learn more about the history of Encantada. As part of this, we were honoured to be able to visit the Cova de Can Sadurni, where the original remains of the oldest beer in Europe, the inspiration behind Encantada, were found. We took with us a few litres of our version of the brew, and the limited edition that we have barrel aged here at Abbeydale, for the team working on the excavations to try. I studied history at uni, so the history geek in me was SO excited for this trip!

The cave itself is located in the picturesque mountain municipality of Begues, about a 40 minute drive from the centre of Barcelona. The journey there was beautiful, (if a little hairy at times, not the widest of roads!) winding up through the mountains with stunning sea views and Barcelona city stretching out behind us. There was a short walk up to the cave once at the site, where we did some foraging for the berries that go into the beer!

The site is managed by Archaeological Collective CIPAG, who have worked at the site since 1978. Since then, they have found over 30,000 fragments of prehistoric material at the cave, including numerous human burials and the vessel which the oldest evidence of fermentation was found upon, which we were actually allowed to hold (inner history geek in massive overdrive at this point!). The cave is absolutely awe-inspiring, cool and silent in contrast to the raging heat outside, and it sounds clichéd but you can really feel the impact of the passage of time in there. This year’s dig was imminent when we visited so the whole team, led by Manel and Pablo, had transformed the cave into a hive of reverent activity. We’ll definitely be watching out keenly for what they discover this year!

Our own version of Encantada went down well with the team – we were very pleased (and a tad relieved!) to discover that they felt we’d done their beer justice. Although the main batch of our Encantada is now sold out, we snuck some away into barrels back in March – the first of which was put into keg and sent to Abirradero – but the rest is still ageing in a variety of wood with carefully selected additions in each one. Look out for these super special releases coming later in the year!

Cheers!

Meet the Brewer – Abirradero, Barcelona

Meet the Brewer - Abirradero, Barcelona

Remember back in February when the team from Instituto de la Cerveza Artesana (ICA) and craft beer bar Abirradero in Barcelona came over to brew the absolutely delicious Encantada with us?

Well… myself and our brewer Jim have just made the trip over to Spain for the return leg of the collaboration, including hosting a Meet the Brewer in Abirradero, showcasing four of our beers!

This will be the first of three posts from our visit, focusing on the event itself. Look out in a couple of weeks for loads more info on a very special trip we were lucky enough to be able to take to learn more about the history of Encantada, and also of course for details of the beer we have made with ICA.

Abirradero opened in 2015 as one of the instigators of the Barcelona craft beer scene. The emphasis at Abirradero falls keenly on gastronomy, and a commitment to flavour in everything they do… they even make their own sodas! Well over half of the 40 taps that line the bar are dedicated to their own beers brewed just 10m down the street at ICA, with styles ranging from a seaweed gose to an imperial ice cream stout. The menu is similarly wide-ranging, with flavour and innovation always being right at the forefront. Many of the dishes incorporate beer too, including Encantada battered calamari! We were lucky enough to make our way through most of the menu during our few days there, and seriously cannot recommend the bar enough for both beer and food… everything was exceptional.

Onto the event! We sent four different kegs of our beer along with cases of Heathen and Voyager cans, in our first ever international export, so it was already a really big moment for us. Our Encantada, of course, made the trip (as did a very special one off keg of barrel aged Encantada), along with plum porter Salvation 3 and Voyager 3 IPA, hopped with Galaxy, Lemon Drop and Centennial.

Having covered the bar in Abbeydale merch and decked out the staff in Moonshine t-shirts, we were ready to kick off the event. There was a great turnout and loads of interest in what we do as a brewery. The fame of ICA’s Encantada in Barcelona meant that many people were keen to try the “new” Encantada all the way from Sheffield, and from there we were happy to persuade them to sample our other brews… we even managed to convince a Guinness drinker to try a Salvation 3 (and are happy to say he enjoyed it)! Our beers were all met with a great reception from the locals, and a Sheffielder even turned up!

We were particularly honoured to have been introduced to special guest Manel, head archaeologist for CIPAG and the Cova de Can Sadurni, the site where the oldest remains of beer ever found in Europe and which inspired ICA’s Encantada was discovered… more on that in our post next week.

A huge thank you to the team at ICA and Abirradero for inviting us to showcase our beers internationally for the first time ever, and for being such fantastic hosts.  We had the best time!

Cheers!

Cold Conscience

Cold Conscience

We are excited to announce that for the third time we have teamed up with the guys down at Brewdog Sheffield to brew up something delicious, fruity and unique.  This time, our collaboration has been completed by local band Alvarez Kings, who have named the beer Cold Conscience in honour of their brand new single. The beer itself is a 4.5% pale with a difference… it’s packed full of mangoes and lychees! New Zealand hops help to emphasise the fruity characteristics of the brew and provide a light but lingering bitter finish. Quaffable, refreshing and absolutely perfect for summer!

It’s always a fun brewday when we have the Brewdog guys around – thanks to Jack, Matt and Kyle for the inspiration behind this delicious brew and of course for digging out the hopback!

Come on down to our launch event at Brewdog Sheffield from 6pm on Thursday 20th June for a fantastic warm up to Tramlines. As well as the first pour of Cold Conscience, you can meet the team and witness some live Abbeydale-themed artwork coming to life!

Don’t forget you can also catch Alvarez Kings at Tramlines Festival, taking place this weekend at venues around the city.

Cavendish Cancer Care

Cavendish Cancer Care

We are pleased to introduce to you our charity beer for this year -Triple C! Dreamed up in collaboration with local charity Cavendish Cancer Care, 10p from every single pint sold of the 40 brewers’ barrels brew will go to support the charity.  Taking inspiration from the charity’s name, this 4% pale ale has been created with three hops that all also begin with the letter ‘C’ – Cascade, Centennial, and Columbus – which provide a vibrant fruity flavour with tropical and citrus notes alongside a spicy hint of resinous pine.

We have a long standing relationship with Cavendish Cancer Care, having worked with them on and off for a number of years. We are delighted to have teamed up with them as our charity partner for the whole year and be organising a variety of events with them throughout 2017, at both of our pubs as well as at our upcoming beer festival Sunfest, which is where you will have the opportunity to drink the very first cask of our charity brew!

Cavendish Cancer Care (reg charity 1104261) is a Sheffield charity dedicated to improving the quality of life for people living with cancer in South Yorkshire and North Derbyshire. They believe no one should face cancer alone, so provide emotional and physical support through counselling and complementary therapies. Their services are provided free of charge and they rely on the donations from supporters and help from volunteers to continue their very valuable work, with only two weeks per year of NHS funding provided.

See www.cavcare.org.uk for more information, including if you would like to get involved with Cavendish or might know someone who needs their help.

It’s our party we can brew what we want!

It's our party we can brew what we want!

We promised special beers and here they are! These are all exclusive to our brewery event on Saturday May 6th and so will not be going on general release. Some are small batch brews conjured up by our wonderful brewers, with others being unique twists on some of our most well loved beers and styles. Assuming all goes to plan, here’s our super special Abbeydale line up…

Deception… ON KEG! For the first time ever we’re fizzing up our beloved Deception, and enhancing the flavours with the addition of fresh grapefruits. Finally, it’s going to be dry hopped with more Nelson Sauvin along with Galaxy and Mosaic.

Heathen…. ON CASK! With added mangoes for an extra burst of fruity flavour intended to boost the wonderful Mosaic hop.

Salvation 2: Wi’ Jam In – Rice Pudding Stout, with a dollop of strawberry jam straight into cask for an even more authentic school dinner experience!

Peaflower Gose – a beer like you’ve never seen before, quite literally. Decided against calling it German Blue…

Tangerine Pale – primary fermented with a rarely used strain of Brettanomyces, that results in a wild beer but without the barnyard funk that’s so often associated with Brett. Dry hopped with Galaxy and Vic Secret.

Burnt Ends – a smoky and sumptuous Rauchwine.

L3mon Cub3d – a lemon, lemongrass and lemon thyme pale.

Boston Booze Party – an Imperial East Coast IPA with (direct quote) “loads of hops”.

Burnt Toast – a rich and luscious toasted oatmeal stout.

Obviously we’ll have plenty of our usual suspects available too, including (we hope, subject to yeast behaving) beer served direct from the tank!

Full beer list including guest beers to be confirmed next week!

Tickets available now at crowdfunder.co.uk/abbeydalebrewery

4 Degrees of Separation

4 Degrees of Separation

Collaboration time again here at Abbeydale – and this time it was a particularly special one for us as it meant a reunion day in the brewhouse too!

In our first EVER four-way collab, three guys who spent time at Abbeydale earlier in their careers returned for one day only… Dave Kerr from Northern Monk, Richard Morley from Magic Rock, and Sam Lee from Siren all back in town, teaming up with our very own Jamie Memmott to create a hop forward, super juicy IPA that’s bound to knock your socks off.

We’ve got a pretty damn extensive hop store here, and the guys had free reign over the shelves. They’ve gone for four absolute powerhouses of the humulus lupulus world – Nelson Sauvin taking centre stage, backed up by Amarillo, Cascade and Galaxy, to provide a massive hit of gooseberry and grapefruit flavours with floral notes, passion fruit and orange lingering on the palate.

It was a great day having the old gang back together, and definitely an eventful brewday (particularly as Sam brought us all some of Siren’s new release Bourbon Milkshake, an 11% milk stout, to try, there’s probably a good reason why this isn’t described as a breakfast beverage) with everyone pitching in and Morley up to his usual tricks of trying to fix everything (even when it wasn’t necessarily broken…) Speaking of pitching, our house yeast has been replaced in this brew by US-05, which accidentally ended up on a van having a little tour around Sheffield shortly before it was needed in the beer! Thankfully our driver brought it back just in the nick of time and it’s now happily fermenting away.

We are mega excited to find out how this beer, named "4 Degrees of Separation", turns out! Keep your eyes peeled for details of where this will available soon… we have a feeling it won’t be around for long!

Brewers Emporium launch night!

Brewers Emporium launch night!

Please join us at the Devonshire Cat next Thursday 16th March any time from 5pm to celebrate the launch of our fantastic new range as part of Sheffield Beer Week! The full range will be available across cask and keg. Open until 2am!

The Brewers Emporium range is a constantly rotating and evolving series of beers, where our brilliant brewers have been given free reign to select unusual and interesting ingredients to create exciting recipes for your drinking delights. The new beers will sit alongside existing core keg beer Heathen, an American style pale ale which is likely to be a familiar sight to many of you! Look out for Voyager IPA, Salvation stout, Reaper cereal (killer) beer and more!

Also being released under the Brewers Emporium banner is something we are all VERY excited about… our Funk Dungeon project, where we intend to explore barrel ageing, souring, and mixed fermentation beers. You can now follow the Funk Dungeon on Twitter @AbbeydaleFunk – look us up!

The artwork for the Brewers Emporium range has been created by artist James Murphy, who started working with us in 2016, beginning with the distinctive Heathen branding that has successfully launched our new and exciting craft beer range. James’ original and detailed work for the ever-expanding new range will allow each beer to stand out on bars and beer shelves across the country, with each beer represented in James’ characteristic, hand-drawn style.  An exhibition of James’ artwork will accompany the beer at our launch event next week, so come on down for what promises to be a brilliant evening!
