SEASONAL RANGE 2025

ALES FOR ALL YEAR ROUND

Another year means another round of Seasonal Ales. Within out Seasonal range, we have an opportunity to showcase new flavours to provide an alternative offering instead of your usual favourites on a JW Lees bar.

This year, we have taken inspiration from everyone favourite Christmas tradition, Plum Pudding. So that usual cheer and excitement is what we’re putting into every season. We have scaled back this year so that there’s more time to enjoy seasonal beers, typically each seasonal edition would be available for 2 months at a time. So don’t worry if you find your new favourite, it’ll be around for longer!

If you want to stock any of these incredible brews, please get in touch. We deliver our beers to Manchester City Centre, Greater Manchester, North Wales and up to Lancashire with some National distribution too.

TROPIC CRUSH

AVAILABLE 3RD MARCH

Starting strong for the spring-summer seasonal is Tropic Crush. It’s exactly what it says in the name; tropical. It’s a bright Session IPA with aromas of pine and zesty citrus fruits. It’s a juicy medley of tropical and citrus flavours, the ultimate refreshment for those sunny beer garden days. Light, flavourful and drinkable, it’s the perfect choice for the season.

BISCUIT BARREL

AVAILABLE 1ST SEPTEMBER

Now for your autumn fix, Biscuit Barrel. It’s a warm hug in a pint. Perfect for when the crisp evenings creep back up on us, it’s the essence of autumn with a well-balanced profile. Think spiced fruits which tempt the season’s comforts with layers of roasted malt. And why not pair it with one of our legendary pies…

PLUM PUDDING

AVAILABLE 29TH NOVEMBER

For the JW Lees family, our Christmas family rituals start with the return each festive season of our Plum Pudding Ale. Our locals have come to expect it. Named in honour of the plum pudding and similarly fruity, it’s nothing less than Christmas in a glass.
