It's a Garage Project kind of weekend!! We've got some smashing beers in from the Wellington New Zealand based brewery 🥝🇳🇿
This Saturday May 16th we will take part in the first pours of their hype beers in the UK!
On tap we have:
● Pickle beer 🥒
● Spicy pickle beer 🌶🥒
● Tūtaki haze 🌄
● DFA IPA 🥭🍃🌶
● Pernicious Weed IPA 🌾🥭
Alongside 5 beers on tap we'll have a fridge full of ridiculous hazy cans and mixed fermentation bottles from their Wild Workshop 🍾
Be sure to swing by this Thursday and we have not 1 but 2 events happening on the same day! First up we will have the delightful @otherworldbrewing gracing us with 4 kegs and 2 casks! And then alongside them we will have 3 kegs pouring from @burningskybeer including their brand new collaboration beer Crisp & Bitter with @brasseriedelasenne which absolutely does what it says on the tin! A cask of Plataeu will follow as the weekend rolls on and we shall see you there! 🍻
A massive thank you from all of us here at Koelschip Yard.
You guys got the memo and absolutely turned up for Zwanze Day 2026.
Over 80 bottles of @brasseriecantillonofficiel destroyed and 169 pints worth from the kegs.
You really are animals. We love everyone of you
It's phenomenal to know that the love of Lambic lives on and we will continue to throw events like this for as long as the building stands.
Massive thanks to @jamesclaybeers for making it happen.
Lambic. Is. Life.

A small but mighty one this week! Something for everyone so let’s go into as much detail as possible! Seeing as it’s kind of spring let’s start with the Maibock from Bavarian powerhouse Ayinger, coming in at 6.9% this seasonal lager is perfect as the weather warms up, full bodied maltiness with a dry finish and notes of green apple, honey and herbal hop bitterness.
We move to Belgium next with Brasserie DuPont’s Fomo, a brand new gluten free beer. With brewing processes continuing to evolve, it’s becoming easier and easier to produce high quality beer whilst reducing the amount of gluten making it more accessible for everyone. The beer is golden/blonde and has a dry but well balanced body to it with DuPont signature yeast character, incredibly refreshing and not to be missed!
Next over to Denmark and To øl and Bramble Berry, a fruited kettle sour made with blackberries and raspberries, expect a refreshingly tart beer with big berry flavours and coming in at 5% its a smashing wee train beer!
Now something a little closer to home, Otherworld White Oak. I want to say this is version 3 or 4 of this beer? And I cannot to try this one. A strong, bitter IPA aged for 4 months in Sherry butts add light woody notes of vanilla & coconut, backed up with Strata hops for bright flavours of lemongrass, citrus and a dash of pine. We will also be seeing Otherworld beers hitting our taps before the month is out, with a little tap takeover, more info to come shortly!
Now adding to our ever growing Alcohol free selection, we’ve got Chouffe Cherry 0.0%, the same cherry flavour with none of the alcohol, cherry juice in a glass! And La Trappe Nillis 0.0% the first ever Alcohol free Trappist ale, those with a keen eye will know we’ve had it before, but we loved it so much we thought we would shout about it some more!
And finally! Seeing as we had a free line let’s hook up a new beer as well. A collaboration between Northern Monk, Glasshouse, Garage, Messorem, Indie Hops & Loughran Brewers Select we have a Double Dry Hopped IPA, packed with orange, peach, mango and passionfruit flavours, it’s very smashable at 6.5%!
🍻
Very much looking forward to welcoming @cloudwaterbrew back to our taps and in person on April 9th! Seeing as it’s Chubbles season we’ve got 2 kegs coming in as well as a whole bunch of other delights. Taplist below for more info! And those looking for stout fear not, we’ve got you a very special Imperial Stout from @omnipollo & @monkishbrewing that we shall be hooking up alongside it.
