(0118) 973 0929
Siren Tap Yard showcases a selection of core craft beers and specials on tap, along with a full range of bottles that you can drink-in or take away. Siren beers qualify as high quality non-real ales. Our desire is to discover ways to excite people’s curiosity and share our knowledge of our craft. We believe all beer drinkers should be able to enjoy craft beer as wine drinkers enjoy the finest wines. The current core beers are Undercurrent, Soundwave, Liquid Mistress, Broken Dream, Calypso and Yu Lu. They are calling you. Allow them into your thoughts and encourage them to play. Be wary though. They are here to tease, here to sway and persuade, here to breathe softly and carry you away. They are the sirens of Siren Craft Brew. They are the Unknown. The Beers: Undercurrent - a 4.5% pale ale with spicy, grassy aromas and a taste of grapefruit and apricot. Soundwave - a 5.6% west coast IPA: golden, immensely hoppy and alive with grapefruit, peach and mango flavours. Liquid Mistress: a 5.8% west coast red IPA: burnt raisins and crackers balanced by citrus. Broken Dream: a 6% breakfast stout with a gentle touch of smoke, coffee and chocolate. Calypso: a 4% Berliner-style sour beer that is liberally dry hopped, the newest addition to our core beer range, known for her sharp tongue. Yu Lu: a 3.6% loose leaf pale ale brewed with Earl Grey Tea which delivers subtle bergamot orange and lemon notes.
Come and enjoy on-site drinking every Friday, Saturday and Sunday (operating as A Bottle Shop only on Wednesdays and Thursdays).
The Siren Craft Brew team have taken over the George and Dragon pub in Church Lane, Swallowfield. They are working with the existing team of staff, who are continuing to manage the bar, tables and kitchen. The team have lots of ideas for the future but are taking things one step at a time. The George and Dragon is open from noon until 11 pm, Tuesday to Saturday, and noon until 5 pm on Sunday. It is closed on Mondays. For more information about the pub, visit: www.georgegragonpub.com
