We’ve been interested in the historic origins of porters and stouts, being originally blended beers made up of young and aged beer. As part of our barrel ageing programme we thought it would be interesting to recreate that in a little way, so we are premiering a very limited and exclusive project called the Threads Project. We have Two Threads as a blend of our Brett Barrel Aged History Repeats, our Victorian Imperial Stout recreation, and our normal Stout. Alongside it we’ve got Three Threads, which is the same but with our Session Bitter, Nano Cask, blended in.

 On Friday 19 April we will run an exclusive event at our brewery where you will get an opportunity to hear the stories of these amazing beers, taste them side by side, and try your hand at making your own blend. The following day we are hosting the Cantillon Zwanze celebration, so if you’re a historic beer enthusiast or just interested in learning more about brewing, tasting and blending, then you’ll definitely want to book tickets for both events and make a weekend of it in Bristol. There are certainly worse ways to spend your time.
