The Special Range

Once They're Gone, They're Gone... Most of the Time

Our special range is always changing as we test new flavours, experiment with different style, or create beers we've always dreamed of making. Most of the beers we make in this range will only be made once so you'll have to act fast to not miss out, however, if they are popular enough then they may grace us with their presence again.

All our specials are available in 9 Gallon Cask and 5/10/20 Litre Bag in Box

Hop, Stock, & Barrel #?

ALC. ??% VOL | IBU: ??

 The Hop, Stock, & Barrel series was created to use up remaining stock of hops and malt, preventing us from wasting valuable resources whilst creating excellent beers. Sometimes we don't even know how each brew of Hop, Stock will turn out. All we can do is point it in the general direction of what we want and then let it run its course. Of course we always make each batch taste  the best it can and it will always be up to the same excellent standard as our other beers.

 Three Sheets to the Wind

A special amongst special. We use locally sourced hemp flour to give this pale ale a deliciously nutty depth that you won't find in any of our other beers.

Three Sheets to the Wind
Wheat Beer

A Sailor's Wit(Bier)

ALC. 4.5% VOL | IBU: 15

 

It's a wheat beer. It's Jolly Nice. It's a sailor's wit. Taking inspiration from Belgian Witbier's, our own Wit(bier) has all the cheek of a sailor's wit with our dedication to producing really good beer. Plenty of wheat in flavour, giving it that distinct hazy look, and a little spice and dried fruit finish delivers plenty of complexity without overpowering your senses. If we don't say so ourselves, We're rather proud of this Sailor's Wit(bier).

We've also created a special Halloween Pump badge called Scared Wit(less)

Wheat Beer Halloween Edition

 

Navis

ALC. 5.5% VOL | IBU: 23

 

Created in collaboration with York CAMRA and debuted at the York CAMRA beer and Cider Festival. Navis comes for the Latin word for ship and is also the root word for Nave (the central part of a church), and as the beer festival is located in St Lawrence Parish Church, we couldn't think of a more appropriate name. This breakfast stout was made using oat malt to give it a nice thick, oaty body, and lightly hopped and dosed with honey to overlay a delicately sweet taste.

Navis v3
Palestorm

Palestorm

ALC. 4.5% VOL | IBU: 45

 

We at the Jolly Sailor do love our pales, and when the seasons change your more than likely to experience a storm of sorts. So what better than to cook up our own storm of a pale. Plenty of hoppy notes and a delectable 4.5% abv, our Palestorm can deliver that warming feeling while retaining its light and fruitful taste.
