A Nightjar Party in Bristol

Celebrating the success of our smooth and creamy kegged British stout, earlier this year we held an exclusive Nightjar party at the Duke of York in Bristol.

If you're new to Nightjar, here's the lowdown...

Launched in September 2022, Nightjar is a kegged stout based on an original Wye Valley Brewery cask recipe dating back to 1985, when ex-Guinness alumni, Peter Amor, first began brewing his own beers at the back of the well-known watering hole, The Barrels in Hereford. As a kegged stout, Nightjar is chilled to 4°C and is nitrogenated. This makes it a very refreshing drink with a delectably creamy texture.

The name Nightjar is a reference to the nocturnal bird that hawks for food and nests in the Wye Valley... and this British stout is certainly flying!

When the Duke of York in Bristol generously offered to host an exclusive trade party to help Nightjar spread its wings, we didn't hesitate!

Here's a sneak peak of how it went down with other licensees...
