Guest Beers


Batemans XXXB

Batemans Triple XB

Batemans Brewery

A malty multiple-winner of CAMRA's Champion Premium Beer of Britain, our much loved XXXB is what you'd call an English tawny beer. Just like the first batch they crafted in 1978, it's brewed with four malts and three varieties of hops, for a deliciously spicy, fruity and biscuity flavour. (4.8% ABV)

Citrus IPA

Citrus IPA

Brockley Brewery

This beautiful IPA is perfectly balanced and gently bittered using Mandarina Bavaria hops, imbuing the beer with delicate flavours of tangerine and mandarin together with a gorgeously soft citrus aroma. (4.5% ABV)

Copper Top

Copper Top

Old Dairy Brewery

Rich dark premium bitter has a delicious toffee caramel body with chocolate undertones from the Maris Otter, Crystal and Chocolate malts. Balanced with a spicy and fruity bite from the Bramling Cross and Challenger hops, this is truly an ale to savour. (4.1% ABV)


Borderlands

Esk Blonde

Borderlands, Scotland

Esk Blonde is a delicious beer, golden and refreshing. Easy drinking, abundant hoppiness with a crisp citrus and floral taste. Brewed with passion by Stuart Campbell at this excellent new artisan brewery, located in Langholm, Scottish Borders. (4.5% ABV)

Cronx Brewery

Koop Island

Cronx Brewery

Summer tropical vibes. Koop Island is a generously hopped and dry hopped session pale, bursting with notes of passionfruit and pineapple. Best enjoyed in the sun on a tropical island, or, if that's not possible down at The Swan, imagination works too! (4.0% ABV)

Lilly's Cider

Lemon and Lime Cider

Lilley's Cider

A refreshing blend of tangy citrus fruits and crisp Somerset cider to awaken your taste buds. A real taste of Summer. (4.0% ABV)


Summertime

Summertime

Lister Brewery

Is a light, hoppy ale, pale ochre in colour and perfectly refreshing for the summer months. Available during July and August. (4.0% ABV)

Calmer Chameleon

Calmer Chameleon

Brew York

American Pale Ale. The green dream of hyper juicy and resinous hops Columbus, Mosaic, Simcoe and Idaho 7 uniting in a super smashable pale ale. (3.7% ABV)

Dark Masquerade

Dark Masquerade

Half Moon Brewery

Ruby/brown ale which is packed with dark chocolate and liquorice flavours. Unfined and vegan friendly (3.6% ABV)

For the beer officiandos, this is the first time Koop Island will be available on draught. Until now it has only been available in cans.

You will have been contacted if you won a prize. On Sunday, the raffle was announced by Nicky of the Windsor Homeless Project with the help of all the kids that were in The Courtyard.
