Polly’s Essentials box 12-pack

Floret - Pale Ale 4.2%

Sometimes you just want a beer that is mega sessionable. Our Core pale ale is delicious, hazy juicebomb of a beer, balanced with enough bitterness to keep drinkers coming back for more. A baby version of our incredibly popular Spur IPA - Floret is positively bursting at the seams with peach, mango, and pineapple notes, backed up with pithy orange peel from its Citra, Simcoe and Azacca hop bill.

Rosebud - IPA 5.6%

Our flagship core beer - the style we're most well known for, and what we do best. Rosebud is an IPA in the New England style - the most popular variant of the style in the world. We've hopped this beer with Citra, Galaxy, Mosaic and Simcoe to create a certified tropical punchbowl of flavour. Strong enough to retain all that incredible mouthfeel, but sessionable enough to smash pints of.

Little Petal - West Coast Pale Ale 5.2%

Whilst we're very much a brewery that produces modern, hop-forward beer, sometimes you have to look back to the old school and honour the breweries without whom we wouldn't be here today. Little Petal takes a detour from our usual output down the Pacific highway for a deliciously moreish West Coast Pale - clean and crisp resinous bitterness takes the lead here, with a classic hop lineup of Cascade and Simcoe.

Rosa - Double IPA 8.4%

Back for good as part of our Icons range, if Galaxy Mosaic IPA was the beer that set off some rumbles for us, then Rosa was the beer that smashed through the glass ceiling and planted us firmly on the map. Gaining near-universal praise from drinkers and industry insiders when we first brewed it in 2019 for our UK-wide Augment launch, for all the incredible places our Augment range has branched off into since then, we love coming back to what we feel is the benchmark for our DIPAs, and our brewers certainly get giddy with excitement when they know our headline beer is back on the brew plans. Featuring a five-hop mega line up of Simcoe, Galaxy, Mosaic, Citra and Ekuanot, this beer is sticky, juicy, piney and dank - 100% Polly's.

Spur - IPA 7.2%

Spur has always been a massive in-house favourite here at Polly's, and the proof is in the pudding - the hop bill of Azacca, Citra and Simcoe bounces with Um-Bongo levels of tropical flavour, featuring a full on fruit salad of papaya, peach, tangerine and mango on both the nose and flavour. The scrappy medium child of the original Augment trio - a nightmare to can on its first go round in 2019 on the back of how highly hopped it was - we've tamed this awesome beast and brought it into our Icons range as a permanent fixture. Slathered with our bespoke in-house LA3 yeast culture for massive hop suspension, this is a beer that is 100% hazy, dank, and juicy. Spur, it's good to have you back for good.

Oh My... - Pale Ale 5.8%

Our last collaboration before the 2020 lockdown with our super pals over at Big Mountain Brewing, and a surefire cult favourite takes its rightful place as the pale ale showing for our new Icons range. We've revisited this beer several times over its lifespan, and originally our first foray into using everybody's new favourite hype hop Sabro in one of our beers, we're now world-weathered in the little quirks and idiosyncrasies of this incredible varietal. Amplified up to the max, Sabro brings a metric tonne of sweet, creamy, pineapple and coconut notes before being reeled in by an in-house Polly's favourite in Citra to keep everything balanced. Named for a truly terrible George Takei impression, this beer will literally make you say "...Oh my!".

Patternist - IPA 6.6%

The original underrated dark horse of the original three and back permanently as part of our Icons range; Patternist has gained and continues to carry its own massive cult following thanks to it's no frills El Dorado and Simcoe hop bill, albeit hopped up to the absolute nines, and its ornate tiling artwork garnering amazing feedback. A favourite among the staff here at Polly's, and the beer from the original three that started it all that we've brewed the most since we launched our Augment range, expect all kinds of mango, pineapple, jelly tots (no, really) with just a hint of resinous pine bursting from this incredible IPA. A hit when we first brewed it, and a surefire hit again with all the techniques we continue to learn since.

Strict Machine - Pale Ale 5.5%

We’re back to it for the new year after a pretty heavy festive break. A highlight of regrouping after our annual shutdown is to rekindle ourselves with the varying musical tastes here at Polly’s HQ. Never ones to disappoint, our brewteam brought everyone’s spirits back up on our first day back by blasting an extremely Goldfrapp-heavy playlist to bring us back into our groove. The as yet unnamed brew they were tackling was immediately renamed in honour of this and with it, we have Strict Machine. Featuring an absolutely huge dry hop charge of Cascade, Citra, Mosaic and Columbus, this beer packs the huge mouthfeel and body of one of our DIPAs but reeled back to a sensible, sessionable ABV. Expect to find an absolute swag bag full of sweet juicy mango, pineapple and tangerine from the incredible pairing of Citra and Mosaic, rounded off with a grassy, pithy bitterness from Cascade and Citra.

Get Comfortable - Oatmeal Stout 5.6%

Whilst we’re very much a tropical and fruit forward pale and hoppy brewery by trade, we do occasionally brew to the seasons here at Polly’s HQ. With it being the peak of winter, we’re yearning for something simple, to be enjoyed in front of a roaring fire in a pub with mates. Step in Get Comfortable. We’ve always floated around the dark side of things, but never really explored too far within this territory. Wanting to up the oats on the grist bill to create a purposely full bodied stout, we’re letting the malt and the malt alone do the talking on this beer. A full 20% of the grist bill being oats, we’ve backed this up with black malt and pale chocolate malt to go with our house standard extra pale to create a velvety smooth, decadent stout that isn’t extreme on the strength. Perfect for this time of year.

Idaho 7 - Pale Ale 5.5%

Through every iteration of our growth over the last demi-decade, one thing that has persisted throughout is this brewery’s love of hops, and how we’ve born an entire business that now looks after the livelihoods of fourteen team members from this love. The Hop Studio felt like a natural extension of this love - showcasing the single most complex, wonderfully diverse ingredient we use in our process bar none. Idaho 7 has gone from a bubbling undercurrent varietal to one of our most highly used and dependable hops; holding its own alongside Polly’s stalwarts Citra, Mosaic and Simcoe. First developed back in 2015 at Jackson Hop Farm in Idaho, The Gem State’s first generation hop farm were working with Sierra Nevada at the time on a series of varietals to use in their beers, and the seventh submitted one really seemed to bridge the gap between tropical and citrus; with some striking melon, red berry, and most prominently, tangerine marmalade notes that blew them all away. Now Jackson’s primary source of output, we’re eternally grateful for their efforts and having scaled up to IPA and DIPA strength, we’re reeling it back for a laid back, easygoing pale ale.

Little Joys (Lallemand Collab) - Lager 3.8%

It’s the little joys that are the best - after a long week slogging away at the brewkit, a busy week moving beer out of the brewery, a marathon of a week touching base with customers and ensuring they’re getting what they need, there’s a small victory in that first sip of a crisp, cold lager; ideally with the sun beating down to boot. We were honoured to bring our brewing ingredients supplier Lallemand to North Wales after hearing of a brand new hybrid yeast strain that could turn one of our lagers around much faster than usual. Utilising this as the basis of our beer, we’ve gone very much stripped down, back to basics, no fuss on this lager. A gentle addition of noble hop Hallertauer Mittelfruh gives a lager that is everything we look for after a long week at the brewery - clean, crisp, with a floral and slightly spicy edge. 

From Without - Australian IPA 6.4%

The United States may well be where the craft beer movement boomed, but without the aid of the South Pacific, it may not have developed into the juggernaut that it is today. Whilst those aggressively bitter Stateside slammers laid the foundations, those delicate, soft flavours of Australian and New Zealand varieties elevated things to the next level and had the rest of the world follow suit as trends pointed toward the pillowy soft New England IPAs that first started appearing in the mid-2010s. From Without is a full blooded, 100% showcase of everything we love about Australian hops - utilising a four way dance of Oz classics, we’ve brought some Polly’s favourites to the party on this hop-drenched IPA in Vic Secret, Eclipse, Enigma, and the world renowned Galaxy. The result? Straight up juice with redcurrant, mango, mandarin, and raspberry notes abound.
