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.

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.

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.

Daemonium presents innocently. Dressed in the pale colours of a far lesser brew, she beckons the unsuspecting close with beguiling aromas and puckish, tingling bubbles. At first furtive sip, however, the ruse it up and the trap is sprung. Too late they see their blunder. Too late they witness the pleasant golden maiden stripped to reveal the ancient face of the demon waiting; its true strength laid bare. Its claws grabbing. Its teeth bared and gnashing. Read Less

According to legend, as told by Beedle the Bard, he who unites the Deathly Mallows is invincible. We thought that was a nice goal to have, so we stared fumbling with ingredients and cans up with this magical elixir. A Milk Stout that starts with a whif of smoky roast and culminates in a delicious toasted marshmallow sweetness that is enough to remind you of younger days around the campfire but not so much to make you forget you're drinking beer.

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

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

The 6th installment in ongoing collaboration series with our local hopyard here in Stark county. This year’s fresh hopped edition is a DIPA packed with over 300 lbs of hops in about 25 Bbls of beer. It’s big, bodacious and bitter with a beautiful, bountiful bouquet from the outrageous additions of world-famous Second Sons cascade hops picked only a few hours before adding them to the brew!

Legend has it that King Arthur's father, Uther Pendragon, possessed two magical ales. One of those ales was "wrought in Avalon" to refresh his warriors' spirits and imbue them with the courage of a red dragon. This light-bodied, refreshing ale is gently spiced with herbs and spices native to the Welsh countryside as our homage to that legendary ale. Read Less

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

Since about 2015, the IBU arms race that dominated the IPA style in the 2000s has waned with a sea-change towards low-bitterness "juicy" IPA's and now their ubiquity has born yet another style. In champaign speak, "brut" means extra dry; likewise, brut IPA's are bone-dry, very aromatic, maybe a bit hazy, maybe not, highly effervescent and nearly devoid of hop bitterness. In short, these are truly the champaign of beers. Read Less
