Not only are times changing, but so is our bar. Since our opening day on the 4th July last year, we have enjoyed making it our quest to listen to our patrons and provide a service that is always looking to improve and create a positive ambience in the bar that lets people see constant change and additions to our bar environment in its structure and, most importantly, in its services.
Our Beer Bar is the newest addition which has increased our beers on tap from 4 to 12, introducing several regular options on top of our Dortmunder / Stella 4 / Bud Light and Guinness mainstays.
This means, that in addition to the originals (above), we now are also offering:
• Becks Vier
• Orchard Pig Reveller (Cider)
• Lowenbrau
• Camden Hells Lager
• Camden Pale Ale
• Wensleydale High Five
• Guest ale(s) – in response to requests from our patrons
• Double Maxim – request placed for it to be supplied on draught
(awaiting delivery)
Don’t forget our full range of Barnard Castle Brewing Company Ales and our bottled wheat beer (Edelweiss) too.
This augurs well for our second Oktoberfest celebrations, from late September to early October, when we anticipate food and music, in keeping with the occasion, to a much larger extent than we were allowed last year.
Our mantra is “YOU ASK – WE LISTEN” and this is why we are reserving one or two lines for requested draft beers that will allow us to create a regular turnover and flavour variety / options throughout the year.
Add into this, our ever expanding whisky top shelf (more news about this next week) which now has Scottish / Japanese / Welsh and Indian whisk(e)ys and we hope that you will be increasingly aware that we aim to cater for all tastes. Look closer and next to the whisky you will see some Russian Surface to Air Missiles next to the propellor and the Red Arrows helmet!
Coffee and music are next on the horizon. As we plan to be offering a full range of Aviator coffee from espresso to latte to Americano to flat white and more. Don’t forget too, Irish coffee and all the variants that this can allow.
On to the music. We are starting to develop a live music programme that will cater for all tastes. Keep your eyes open for more information soon to set the scene.
We look forward to seeing you at the bar – cheers.
