You may recall a few weeks ago I asked you what craft beers from outside of London you would like to see in the virtual shelves of our fab beer subscription club. Well we listened to all of your input and are thrilled to add Tiny Rebel Brewery to our list of “Outsiders”. It’s always tough being a London specialist retailer as there are always beers outside of this great city we like drinking and trying. Our little non-London section is somewhere that really lets us showcase the best beers in the UK as well as the best beers in London too.
So why Tiny Rebel from Newport for our online beer club? The short answer is because so many of you voted for them! Far be it for me to ignore the demands of our fine beer drinking customers! Seriously though Tiny Rebel stand for a lot of great things in the beer industry that we do and their mantra and ethos is very much the same. Their core range is exemplary – they absolutely nail it for us – and their specials are dripping with fun and experimentation. The beer can artwork is something to behold too, plus they seem like a really fun brewery with a commitment to quality. A great example of what I’m talking about is something like Clwb Tropicana. A great core craft beer but on top of that anyone that tries this brew tends to say “wow it tastes like beery Lilt”. Not everyones cup of tea but I’d drink it all day in the sun. The same goes for Stay Puft. This marshmallow porter really is one of our go-to guilty pleasures. It’s packed full of sweetness and keeps you sipping away in a dangerously moorish fashion. Plus it’s got Mr Stay Puft from Ghostbusters on the can….call me shallow it’s all I need to try a beer!
Tiny Rebel set up in a garage in 2012 and now they are one of the biggest craft beer brewers in Wales. They now have their own Tiny Rebel Bar and if awards is a thing you look for when trying a new beer or a new brewery then look no further. They have a host of beer awards including SIBA Brewery Business of the Year and International Beer Challenge UK Brewer of the Year 2016. They can now add to that the much converted title of “Latest Outsider Beer to be Added to Craft Metropolis Range” to their growing list of awards. I’m sure they will frame it and pop it in the downstairs loo.
Joking aside we are thrilled to add them to our subscription box and feel that with Cwtch, Cali, Stay Puft and more to choose from theres a bit of something for everyone from a great pale ale to a crazy porter. We are proud to call ourselves Tiny Rebel stockists and delighted you can buy Tiny Rebel beer online with us. Most of all, however, we are thrilled that you help us choose these Welsh wonders to be part of the site.
Look out in the future for more non-London beers popping up – but don’t worry our quest for London’s best beer’s continues full steam ahead.
Thanks for reading, thanks for voting, and most of all enjoy your brews!
