Apprentice (3.9%) 

This was meant to be a totally different beer but Jeremy aka Dad aka The Apprentice added Polish Marynka hops instead Challenger ones. We must let him do this again though as it's a fine beer! Golden in colour, hoppy nose and definitely a session beer.

Dengie Best Bitter (3.6%)

A popular bitter to tempt those who like a darker malty brew with plenty of flavour, not too much hop and at a strength where you can make a night of it.

Hoppy Helper  (4.0%)

Brewed as the Staff beer for the CAMRA Maldon Beer Festival since 2007 Light in colour with a real hop kick. Refreshing and very more-ish. So good one of the local brewers voted it 'Beer of the Festival' in 2007 where it gained more votes that the 'official' winner! Now our regular golden ale.

Colour: Deep Red

Darker Mild (4.3%)

A deep red mild. Historically milds were much stronger than most available today with the 'mild' referring to the amount of hops as opposed to the alcoholic strength. So here's one with a bit more body than most. A blend of dark 'Carafa' malts which are de-husked to give a smoother flavour with a bit of sweetness to balance. Lightly hopped means it's ideal for those who don't like bitter beers. Exhibited at the 2009 Great British Beer Festival at Earls Court, London.

Colour: Black

Crafty Stoat (5.3%)

A truly  special brew. Made to a recipe developed by the Durden Park Beer Circle to recreate the Stout brewed by Ushers Brewery back in 1885. Initially made with the assistance of members of the Craft Brewing Association and the UK-Homebrew Digest at the 2008 'Flocculation' With six different types of malt and a huge amount of English Fuggles hops this is a dark and complex beer.
