Named ‘Dreamed a Dream’, after the classic folk song Dirty Old Town written by ��������’s own Ewan MacColl, the beer, a golden ale, is a very clean and light golden drink with a floral element coming from New Zealand hops giving a citrus, pine, and resonant flavour.  The aim was to capture the essence and spirt of the city.

Served regularly around 100 years ago, golden ale is a classic traditional British drink.  Jack Dixon, Head Brewer at Lark Hill, has crafted a traditional golden ale base with some creative additions to define the taste of ��������.

Jack said his approach was: “To do something that’s very inclusive - that’s very ��������. It’s the taste of �������� captured in a beer for the city.”

Jack’s inspiration was rooted in the classic beers served in �������� pubs for generations;  this golden ale is made with UK malt and hops to provide a strong traditional base, with US yeast and New Zealand hops to recognise ��������’s global reach as a vibrant city for innovation and creativity: this is a beer for �������� as it was, as it is, and as it will be.

Dreamed a Dream will be available on tap, exclusively at The Old Fire Station, and in cans for wider distribution and sale.  The branding and design on the can was part of a student project in the University’s graphic design course, and incorporates small graphical depictions of buildings, areas, and things from across the �������� city region, with the main base colour being the iconic �������� pink.

Jack talks passionately about this celebratory beer saying “The beer itself is perfect.  It’s very drinkable and is by no means a boring beer.  When you crack open the can and pour it into a glass, it’s very bright and the colour is lovely, it’s perfect.  It’s the kind of beer I like to drink, and with Dreamed a Dream I hope I’ve done �������� proud.”
