Not just any pale ale. Our pale ale. 🍻

It's National Cask Ale Week, so we're raising a glass to JPA (Jerry's Pale Ale) — our very own 3.6% all-English hopped pale ale, made to our own recipe and brewed for us by Magic Dragon Brewery.

A little bit of our own brewing story, poured into a pint. 🍺

Fancy giving Jerry's Pale Ale a try? Come and find us at Basement 85, Chester.

Alongside Fully Loaded Grill in the kitchen, we also serve up cheese and charcuterie boards at Basement 85.

A little something to share, a glass of w**e in hand and a cosy evening in our cellar bar. Whether it’s date night, catching up with friends or just fancying a few good things on a board, we’ve got you covered.

Good cheese, good w**e and good company. What more do you need?
