April News

Well I thought I would post you all the new products that have come our way of late.

Local Beer
Five Towns & Revolutions both from the Wakefield area. Both make some really good beer. I think most people in the area will have sampled a five towns beer in the last few years. Well the good news is Malcolm is now doing some bottling. Outwood bound and Niamh Nemesis are the first ones we have had. First batch gone waiting for the next lot to arrive.

Revolutions are newer and are based at whitwood which is near Castleford. 5 brews in the bottles at the moment. With another to come. Including Record store day beer revolver. If you like stouts and porters you wont go wrong with both Clash & Manisfesto

Next up is Elland I was pleased when I found out they were bottling. Again their 1872 porter is world class. The other two beers are Amnesia & Ushuaia these are lighter beers. Pretty good stuff.

Still in Yorkshire but a little further a field is Wold Top we go and collect these from them as they no longer deliver their beer to West Yorkshire. Sadly their fav of mine Mars Magic has now finished but we still have some left. That's been replaced with Headland Red. They also have done a IPA which is also gluten free.

The next is North Yorkshire brewing co I've added Hunny Bunny (honey beer) and there best seller Flying Herbert to our range. Blond for cheese is being stopped but I still have a case left. And once Crystal Tips is run out with us that will be getting a break.

Also in changing news Sam Smiths Pale & Organic Best is being stopped. I still have some best if you like that. The good news is that they have sort of mergered them to create Organic Pale Ale. As normal its a 5.0% beer

Other British beers we have in at the moment is St Peters you may know that I love St Peters beers and I love there pub in London lots if you ever get down there make sure you visit its not far away from another fav of mine the Craft Beer co pub. Any way we have there fruit beer new in at the moment. Its pretty good stuff so give it a try.

While I'm on about fruit beers we also have a Pineapple beer in from Belgium a lot of you like the banana and the plum beer so I thought I would get the pineapple in. Some other new beers from Belgium include Gulden Draak, Juplier pils & Strandgaper if you buy 3 bottles of those you get a free glass. you can also get a free glass when you buy Ayinger celebrator dark German bock beer. Also have a few other new German beers. Now with some of these beers the bottles need to go back to German. We pay for the bottles extra on some of these so rather than pass the cost on and letting you bung it in the recycling box. You are charged an extra 10 or 15p and then you get that back when you bring the bottle back. No rush on bringing them back.

As you know we don't just do beer we have cider as well and I have got some cider from Hogans. Those local will have seen draught Hogans appearing in Ossett Brewery pubs well we have the bottles.

Our food range is now fully stocked and there are some delightful new jelly's and chutneys most are gluten free. Just like 5 of our beers 2 from Hambletons, 2 from Wold Top and now 1 from Germany its a pils.

Tasting nights are proving a big success and the next two are booked in 26th April Two Roses and May 31st Brew dog. If you wish to come along. Get your tickets now!

And there are plenty of other new beers I havent touched on.

World Exclusive beer

Loads of new beers coming to bier huis

Rat & Ratchet - Ratsuptin Only a stock of 24 out of 200 only place in the world to buy these retail

5 Towns Brewery - Outwood Bound & Niamh's Nemesis again the only shop to be stocking these beers.

Some old favourites from Concrete cow will be back and we are the only place outside Bucks that stocks those beers.

3 beers from Manchester area will be arriving as well including Boggarts Rum Porter.

In cider news - Some new ciders will be arriving along with 3 from Hogans.

Don't forget 29th March it cider & cheese night from 7pm get your tickets now just £2.50 each you will get to try some of our range.

As its St Patricks on the 17th March we will be holding a Stout week. Ireland's favourite drink however we font stock Guinness but many other great stouts from around the world.

Sadly there are a few Best before dates up on a couple of lines nothing wrong with those beers and for me they should really have a longer date on them as the some of the beer we have go until 2016. So these are reduced in price to clear and they will be replaced with some other new beer.

New year

Well we have been open now for nearly 6 weeks and have seen a busy Christmas period with plenty of gifts being sold.

Our Valentine range is starting to come together and is slowing hitting the shop. As you know all our gifts are creating in store.

And again we wont just be focusing on the men you can get something for females even if they don't like real ale. We have plenty of other delightful types of beers to try.

Also the New Year sees us start our monthly Thursday night event with these so far being the dates.

Little Valley Tasting - Thursday 26th Jan 7pm

And if you still want more we will be at the Ridings Shopping Centre in Wakefield on Sunday 5th Feb for the Yorkshire Market.

Bier Huis Opens Saturday

Well at last we open our doors on Saturday morning at 10 am and for those who still are unsure where we are. We are in the old portfolio shop at the seemore centre next to Coral bookmakers. In downtown Ossett.

We have had to rush the opening due to a slight error with Royal Mail and not delivering our events licence for the stall at the lights switch on. The stall will still be there and you can purchase a great range of chutney, honey, mustard's and loads of other good stuff but not the beers!

Hopefully everything will arrive on time and fingers cross we have a great range from loads of Yorkshire breweries, a good selection of UK beers some you know some you won't and then a lovely choice of weird and wonderful beers from around the world. If it arrives I recommend the Coral tonica from Madeira. Tasty dark beer.

I have managed to source a selection of ciders none of this magners muck and even some from Yorkshire.

And as the customer is mainly right I have draught drinks for sale in 2 pint cartons. 2 ales and 2 ciders which will rotate.

And if that is not enough I have a great selection of Yorkshire produce. Henderson's Relish, Yorkshire crisps, Yorkshire chorizo now with a spicy version as well. Plus chutney's, mustard's as well as some Wakefield honey.

As for Saturday there will be loads going on so keep checking Facebook or twitter for updates.

And at this point I would like to thank Mark and Caitlin who came along and helped painted the wall. Ian & Steve who with a lot of planning sorted the grilles on the window out. Phil from Holland who popped in with some lovely beers from Belgium. And everyone that has come along and purchased from us and helping to get us set up.

Latest News - October

Well it’s been a long time since I wrote a blog. So here goes.

Its’ been a busy time for us at the moment we are now less than a week away from the end of our licence application process and hopefully that will be signed off with no issues. Then the real work can start on transforming the shop from an empty dirty shell to something which I hope will do us proud. All the shelving has been picked out it’s just a case of the carpet and what colour paint. (We might even have a paint party with food and drink if anyone would like to help) Along with getting the new signage booked in and up.

I did have an opening day of Friday 11^th November with a grand opening on the Saturday but this clashes with the Wakefield Beer Festival so we might stick to that date or go for the week after.

So now on to the good stuff I have also been busy sorting out more beers for you. I will have an extra few British beers as well as some lovely extra special Italian beer at our next market which is Saturday 22^nd October. (Spread the word) Along with that I have our ever expanding range of gifts. Our own created T-shirts, Calendars & gift packs they can all be seen at www.bierhuis.co.uk/gift-packs and don’t forget Bar Bier Huis will be back £2 a bottle (served in a plastic glass) of York Minster or the lovely German wheat beer Schofferhofer & Ossett Excelsior @ £2.30 for you to drink while you shop on the other stalls.

The following week we are back in Ossett but inside this time at the lovely Elizabethans Christmas Craft Fair at the town hall from 10 am until 1-30

And in all of that I have been busy chatting to brewers up and down the country about having their beers and ciders stocked by us. Although we favour the Yorkshire beers it is also key to us that we supply with some of the regional beers from around the country with a majority of these not being available in the area. Which Concrete Cow and Dunham Massey are. These so far have gone down very well.

If you have any ideas then please email me

So these are just a few breweries which we will be stocking soon.

Wold Top – East Yorkshire

Magic Rock – West Yorkshire

Summer Wine – West Yorkshire

Leeds – West Yorkshire

Coach House – Cheshire

Cheddar Ales - Somerset

Cheshire Cider – Cheshire

Woodthorpe Hall Cider – South Yorkshire

Oh and we are launching a loyalty card. They are being printed at the moment so we should be able to start at the market and for this you will get a double stamp!
