The mouth-watering allure of a freshly hand-pulled pint has been bottled by Frog Island Brewery for you to enjoy in the comfort of your own home. As a truly hand-crafted product, our beers are brewed, gently    hand-bottled and hand-labelled on site. The secondary fermentation that takes place in the bottle ensures that the character of the beer is preserved and complimented by the subtle carbonation produced by the       bottle-conditioning process. Without the addition of additives or artificial carbonation, you will find that our bottle-conditioned beers really do taste like real ale in a bottle.

The following beers are available in cases of 12 x 500ml bottles:

Natterjack is a 4.8% golden, smooth-drinking beer with a sweet, hoppy aroma. English Marris Otter pale malt is used to produce an initially sweet taste, followed by a malty astringency. The malty body is balanced by a sweet, floral flavour contributed by English Target and Goldings hops. This beer is a                  bottle-conditioned version of our best-selling cask beer.

Fire-Bellied Toad is a 5.0% pale ale that exhibits the full aroma, flavour and bitterness characteristics of a single variety of English hop, Phoenix. This golden-brown beer has a sweet, floral aroma and a slightly sweet initial flavour that is followed by a lasting hop flavour and bitterness. This is balanced by the use of English Marris Otter pale malt, with the addition of wheat malt and crystal malt to provide extra flavour and colour. This bottled beer is based on the cask-conditioned beer of the same name, which won a silver award at the Beauty of English Hops competition in 1997.

Croak & Stagger is a 5.6% dark, full flavoured beer. This recipe for this chestnut-coloured brew includes American Cascade hops which contribute a sweet and spicy note to the aroma. The use of English Marris Otter pale malt, crystal malt, wheat malt and chocolate malt gives a flavour that is initially roasted and slightly bitter and develops to give a slight hint of dried vine fruits. The flavour of the Cascade hops and bitterness produced by the addition of English Target hops combine to produce an astringent aftertaste. This bottled beer was described as "a cold weather winner" in the Times newspaper of 18th April 1998, when it was rated as joint-second against bottled beers from around the country.
