Butcombe launches Tall Tales Pale Ale – a beer to get your teeth into

Butcombe Brewing Co (part of Liberation Group) has launched its latest snappy offering – a Pale Ale with real bite…introducing Tall Tales Pale Ale.

A thoroughly modern, delicious and easy-to-drink Pale Ale, Tall Tales, the boldest beer in the Butcombe family, is a refreshing, fruity and light beer that is full of character with notes of grapefruit, pineapple and citrus.

The ale is named Tall Tales after the legendary story of a crocodile lurking in Bristol’s River Avon at Hotwells. The reptile, which prompted a police search but was never found, has been reported floating beneath the surface of the muddy waters.

Marc McGuigan, Group MD, Brewing & Distribution, Liberation Group says: “We’re incredibly proud of Tall Tales, one of our biggest flavoured beers to date. It’s a vibrant and flavoursome Pale Ale brought smack bang up to date, by our amazing brewing team, for today’s beer lover. We were inspired by the tale of Bristol’s mythical crocodile when creating Tall Tales. It’s important that we keep surprising our customers so what better way to show the innovation and creativity of our award-winning brewery, whilst remaining faithful to our Bristolian heritage, than launching this incredible new beer. Whether it’s true or not doesn’t really matter. Who doesn’t love a Tall Tale every now and again?”

Tall Tales Pale Ale is available in 30ltr and 50ltr kegs
