Tasting Notes

White Rat

4% ABV | Cask | Pale Ale

This very pale, hoppy ale is made from low colour malt. A combination of Cascade, Columbus and Amarillo hops produce an intensely aromatic and resinous finish.

Hell Rat

4% ABV | Keg | Lager | Vegan | Vegetarian | Gluten Free

Defiant and untamed, Hell Rat is a crisp, fresh Helles lager forged in the unrelenting fires of the underworld. Reserved for sinners, not saints. A refreshing Helles style lager brewed with extra pale malt.

Ossett Blonde

3.9% ABV | Cask| Pale Ale

This beer pays homage to our stunning Yorkshire heartland, the inspiration behind everything we brew. A full-bodied pale ale that's well-rounded and slightly sweet on the palate. A generous addition of Mount Hood and Opus hops late in the boil result in a delicate fruity aroma.

Silver King

4.3% ABV | Cask | American Pale Ale | Gluten Free

One of the original Ossett core beers from 1998 and SIBA national champion. This regal beer continues to be a timeless classic. A simple combination of UK grown pale malt and American Cascade hops result in a crisp, dry and refreshing pale ale with aromas of citrus fruit and balanced bitterness.

King Rat

7.4% ABV | Keg | IPA | Vegan | Vegetarian

Pledge your allegiance to King Rat, a bold and brash leader, delivering big, juicy flavours to his hop-loving loyalists, A hazy IPA loaded with Citra, Galaxy and Topaz hops.

Fat Rat

8% ABV | Keg | Stout | Vegan | Vegetarian

Give way to the gluttonous Fat Rat, an indulgent drop of liquid pudding that's elegantly rich yet delightfully devilish. A decadent dessert stout loaded with hazelnut, chocolate and marshmallow. Treat yourself. Dive into pleasure.
