From the tin mines to the Thistle Fields
This one’s for the tin miners, the soot-covered grafters of Cornwall who made the earth give up its glittering guts, then probably just wanted a proper pint and a moment of peace. Inspired by the rugged soul of Cornwall and brewed with the kind of care a pasty deserves, this pale ale is our liquid tribute to pickaxes, granite, and a coastline that doesn’t care about your Derbyshire problems.

What’s In It? A Field’s Worth of Story.
We started with Maris Otter and Munich malt for that classic British biscuit & toast backbone. Then we threw in hops with heritage: Fuggles for earthy swagger, Styrian Celeia for floral flirtiness, and Willamette because we’re not complete traditionalists. But here’s the real magic: a dollop of Thistle Fields honey, harvested from bees who had been gorging themselves on apple blossom like they were at an orchard buffet. The result is a pale ale that’s subtly sweet, slightly floral, and smoother than a sea shanty after three pints.
Some say Melder, the old spirit of blossom and bloom, passed through those fields when the bees were at work. We’re not saying it’s true. But we’re not saying it isn’t.

MUSIC PAIRING

Honeyed Highs & Progressive Lows

This beer starts with clarity, a clean, pale malt base, unmistakably drinkable, but it’s the local honey that draws out something deeper. Subtle sweetness. Floral echoes. A softness that lingers just long enough to make you notice. Not syrupy. Not loud. Just quietly expressive, like warmth at the edges of a breeze.

We’ve paired it with a progressive trance mix that builds the way this beer drinks: steadily, confidently, layer by layer. The mix opens with restraint, then stretches upward into glowing synths, pulsing rhythms, and melodic progressions that match the beer’s slow bloom.

This is a beer for forward motion, for when your body’s still but your mind is moving. As the honey rounds out the bitterness, and the trance rhythms deepen, you’re reminded that balance doesn’t have to be quiet, it can be kinetic.
