The Salopian Big One 6x500ml & 6x440ml

It’s the Big One – a collection of our Core, Silver and Black Range beers to try and enjoy. With a variety of flavours and styles, it is truly an epic journey of Salopian discovery!

From the Core Range and presented in a 500ml bottle:

Shropshire Gold 3.8%:  a delightful golden ale with a floral aroma and a full hoppy flavour that is balanced by a crisp dry maltiness and a rich finish.

Oracle 4%: Golden, with a floral aroma and a full hoppy flavour that is balanced by a crisp dry maltiness and a rich finish.

Darwin’s Origin 4.3%: First brewed in 2009 to celebrate the bicentennial of Charles Darwin’s birth in our home town of Shrewsbury. A copper-coloured bitter given an international twist with an eclectic mix of new and old-world hops that give the beer its distinctive lemony aroma and dry finish.

Hop Twister 4.5%: With a palate that is fresh, piercing and focused, complemented by soft malt overtones and pronounced citrus flavours. A strong focus of taut, lemony, grapefruit on the finish which is balanced by a dry bitterness.

Lemon Dream 4.5%:  A shimmering golden ale that is brewed using organic lemons which adds beautifully subtle zesty aromas and a citrus filled fruity finish.

Golden Thread 5%: A bright gold ale, using wheat, lager malt, and flavoured with an infusion of aroma hops. Clean and crisp to the palate with a hint of sweetness and a long fruit-filled finish.

From the Silver Range and presented in a 440ml can:

Auric 4%: Our well hopped session IPA goes into can for the first time! Auric 4% is the first member of our brand-new Silver Range. It has a strong grapefruit aroma and a body filled with a quenching array of fruit rind, dried pine and sparkling lemon zest.

Lemon Dream UNFiLTERED 4.5%: A special unfiltered and extra dry hopped version of our shimmering golden ale. Vegan friendly and lightly carbonated, it is brewed with organic lemons and a trio of hops to create a delightfully refreshing and wonderfully zesty, yet easy drinking beer.

and from our acclaimed Black Range – presented in a 440ml can:

Mynd: A wild mash-up of Trolltunga and Lemon Dream with our friends at the magnificent Buxton Brewery. Mynd is a vibrant, fruited sour IPA with intense lemon zest and tangy gooseberries, balanced by a light pale malt and wheat base. Tart and refreshing, with a clean, dry finish—perfectly fruity and dangerously drinkable.

Escalation: A crushable Session NEIPA brimming with a tidal wave of Simcoe, Idaho 7, Cryo Pop, and the new superhop, Krush—together conjuring a tropical cocktail of mango, guava, and kiwi, sprawled on a silken hammock of grain. A beer to sip as the sun melts into the sea: incandescent, dazzling, and gone too soon.

The Void: A full-bodied and decadent stout brewed in collaboration with our friends at Neon Raptor, Huge charges of oats and specialty dark grains provide a rich, velvety malt base complemented by lashing of cacao, vanilla, and whisky-infused coffee beans from local roasters Iron and Fire. The end result is a complex and opulent treat to warm the bones and soothe the spirit.

Kashpur v2: Back in August 2023, the team made a trip to Bakewell to collaborate with our friends at Thornbridge Brewery and Kashpur was born – a mash up of their epic Jaipur and our mighty Kashmir. As we both celebrate significant anniversaries this year, we thought it was time for it to return, this time brewed at Salopian. A vibrant burst of citrus, hints of grapefruit and tropical fruit, alongside a refreshing piney bite and a crisp, dry finish that echoes the best of both beers.

Please note –Kashpur v2,  Auric, and Lemon Dream UNFiLTERED, serve with a hazy appearance as they are unfiltered and unfined. Escalation, and Mynd present as opaque. The Void, is dark, very dark.
