What a wonderful round up from @totalcurtis for his beers of 2024. We’re pleased as punch to have Saison de Maison on that list too! 😁🥳🍻

[Balance Brewing & Blending @balancebrew]

It's not long at all 'til Block Party now, we can almost taste it. And by it, we mean the finest West African food! Check out the delicious sounding menu. We cannot wait for a puff puff alongside a bit of lambic from @3Fonteinen! Don't miss out, see you on Saturday. 🍻

Trade Customers Assemble!!!

This week we’re releasing our second keg only beer, Long Shadows, a dry hopped saison. We've used a combination of Bramling Cross, Goldings and Admiral for the dry hop which bring peach and blackcurrant notes to the tart fruity funk of the base beer.

They're all out now and will all be available on draught at the tap from tonight- that includes both ciders. 🍏

Thanks to everyone that has bought a bottle of Balance this year. It really makes a world of difference to our tiny brewery and blendery. Cheers! ❤️

[Balance Brewing & Blending @balancebrew]

A frankly ridiculous lineup of releases today. Saison de Maison blend 8, our blackberry wild ale, Bramble, and our first two cider releases: both Islay BA. We're really happy with all of these bottles and think they make the perfect Christmas day treats!
