It’s been a pretty exciting start to August.

Our alcohol-free pale, Zero Visibility, has been named a finalist in the Great British Food Awards 2026 in the Alcohol Free category.

It’s a brilliant achievement for our brewing team, especially considering the standard of breweries and producers from across the UK. Zero Visibility was brewed to prove that alcohol-free beer doesn’t have to compromise on flavour, and we’re incredibly proud to see it recognised on a national stage.

If you haven’t tried it yet, you can pick up cans online, in our taproom or from a growing number of pubs and retailers.

Good news – our 5-litre mini casks are back in stock.

Perfect for BBQs, garden parties, birthdays or simply keeping the beer flowing at home, they’re available in a selection of your favourite Docks beers, alongside our new Apple & Pear Cider mini cask.

They’re available for click & collect only from the brewery, and they tend to disappear quickly, so don’t leave it too long if you’ve been waiting for them to return.

Quizmaster Rich Young returns to the taproom on Thursday 20th August for our End of Summer Quiz.

Expect general knowledge, music, picture rounds and a few summer-themed surprises, all with the usual friendly atmosphere and great beer.

Entry is £2 per person, teams can have up to six people, and while entry is paid on the door, free spaces should be booked in advance to make sure you don’t miss out.

Think you’ve got what it takes? Gather your team and join us for one of our favourite nights of the month.

Our Taproom Acoustic series continues this month with a performance from Jessy May on Saturday 22nd August.

Jessy is an exciting young local singer with a beautiful voice, and we’re looking forward to welcoming her to the taproom for a relaxed afternoon of live music.

Live music starts at 2:30pm, entry is free, and if you’d like to guarantee a table, you can book one through our website. Come down, grab a pint and help us support some fantastic local talent.
