Big Nut

The name Big Nut is a tribute to the master craftsman Peter Rogers, who makes all the rad tap handles in the BrewPub. We gave him an assortment of stainless fittings and he turned one into a tap handle with a big nut on it. This big black IPA has roasty, coffee and nutty malty notes balanced with resiny, piney and earthy hops rounding out a smooth slightly acrid palate.

FreeWheeler

FreeWheeler has all the hoppy goodness of an IPA without the alc. Fully fermented just like a normal beer. Citrusy, tropical perfume and slight caramel malt are the highlights of this beer that allows you to Free Wheel home!

The process of brewing FreeWheeler is unique to BentSpoke due to the filtration process. BentSpoke uses a unique filter system from brewery equipment manufacturer DME. The filter removes all the fermented beer flavour called the retentate leaving the permeate (alcohol and water) behind. The flavour is then rehydrated with deaerated water, carbonated and is ready to package. Using this process allows BentSpoke to replicate full strength beer flavour in a non-alcohol beer.

Grainy

Grainy is a Foreign Extra Stout. The style originated by the need to supply stout to tropical areas of the world from the UK. These were brewed with higher alcohol and higher quantity of hops to help preserve the beer on its travels. Pale barley malt, roast barley, chocolate malt and oats combine to brew a strong roasty, slightly astringent stout. A smooth finish helps balance the roasty character. Served on nitro tap.
