At Royal Docks, we simply adore intellectually challenging brews that beckon one to explore their depths and parse each nuanced sip, but this ain't one of those beers. See, there's thinkin' beer and there's drinkin' beer - and Backyard Crusher is a drinkin' beer. Sure, we could tell you all about the Egyptian black lime, Mediterranean sea-salt and Citra hops that make this tangy golden quencher so easy on the tongue, but that would defeat the purpose.

Conceived among the rows at Second Sons' Hopyards & raised in the steamy halls of our brewhouse, the source of Hoptopod IPA's monster hop flavour lurks in the deepest fathoms of the Seven Cs: Ohio-grown Cascade, Columbus, Centennial, Crystal, Celeia, Cluster and Citra hops. Locally sourced malt from West Branch Malts is the base of this brew.

We start with an IPA, then we use skill and magic to ferment it really dry, then we dry hop the hell out of it with highly-sought-after Mosaic hops, then we add a whole lot of hand squeezed and zested Valencia oranges. Get it? Champagne + Oranges = Mimosa + Mosaic = Mimosaic? And did we mention it’s made with a lager yeast? So technically there shouldn’t be an A on the IPA, but since we’re all friends here… Read Less

Named after one of the tall-ship Clippers that carried coffee from the Horn of Africa to the London docks in the golden age of the coffee trade, our collaboration brew with Tree City Coffee and Solstice Roasters utilizes a blend of beans roasted to highlight what is special about both the bean and the beer.

Our white stout is a golden pale, full bodied and strong. We’ve added back the chocolate love, roastiness and vanilla notes with healthy doses of the real McCoy; Ghanaian cocoa nibs, Chanchamayo coffee and Madagascar vanilla beans . At a strength of 8.7% this is a true stout in the historical sense of the word unlike many modern stouts of any colour.

Named for the schooner Lady Lovibond, a ghost ship that appears cast in an eerie white glow to lure rescuers to their own demise in the North Sea, our white stout is likewise not what she appears. With the coffee roastiness, chocolaty maltiness and vanilla sweetness expected of its darker kin, Lovibond eschews typical ingredients and relies instead on real coffee, cocoa and vanilla beans for ballast.

The return of our easy drinking pub staple ESB.

London, our muse, is home to a great many beloved characters; Ms. Poppins, Paddington Bear, Fagin, Mrs. de Vil, Oliver! and Mr. Bean just to name a few. Royal Docks has become a second home to a great many characters as well and we dedicate this release to all of our taproom favourites - especially Mr. & Mrs. Preston, Mr. E. Martin, Mr. B. Bailey, The Burmeisters, Mr. R. Schmidt & Co., The Sirpillas and Dr. & Mrs. Cochran to name just a small very small cast. Read Less

An Imperial Stout to be reckoned with, Vlad is a coal-black, high-gravity, high-alcohol ale with tremendous, complex flavours and aromas that hint at caramel, coffee, roasted nuts and a perhaps a wee bit of smoke with a monster mouthfeel and a warming finish. Read Less

Most beers need a bit of age and some polishing before being kicked from the nest. Other beers are born to run; daring, thundering, people-pleasing hop bombs that should be allowed to roam immediately.

Dare IPA is one of those beers; a young, unfiltered, unprocessed, aggressively hopped West-Coast-meets-New-England IPA bursting with floral and citrus flavours and aroma straight from the tanks into the can [to the taps] [to the keg].

6.6% ABV | 45 IBU

Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in that grey twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat. Read Less

Someone once said that brewing an IPA with fruit was a crime. Well, call the cops. An obscene amount of passionfruit coupled with about an acre of Citra and Simcoe hops produces an IPA loaded with juicy, peachy-passion flavour and aromatics that are simply steaming with tropical hop character.
