We're damn proud of our Real Ales and the authentic English beer
engines that serve these excellent full flavoured Ales. These babies
pump or draw the Ale from the kegs in the cellar under the bar in
the time-honoured English tradition - only one of a hand-full of
authentic beer engines in the country!! Visit the
camra website
for more information
What's so special ? Well for starters the Ale is not overly fizzed
or gassy like most modern beers - it undergoes a slow secondary
fermentation in the keg (which is primed with fresh yeast and a
little sugar), to produce a light fine carbonation. Next, although
the Ale kegs are chilled in the cool room, the beer lines and beer
pump are not chilled, so the beer is served to you at the perfect
quaffing temperature of about 8 Deg C. |

The fermentation and yeast in the keg adds to the full ale flavour
sensation, and the low fizz levels and warmer serving temperature
make this a unique and memorable beer tasting experience - the
flavours are enhanced, soft and mellow! Just like the good old days!
We serve our ESB and Porter by
beer-engine all year round. The following venues also serve Holgate
real ales by traditional beer engine:
