We like Beer...Interesting ones, well kept and at a reasonable price. The beers at Drummers change and revolve. You will normally find something new, and also something familiar on the bar. We like to find new beers that are great drinking and naturally, some of them come back again...and again - because they're great! There are GLUTEN FREE Beers always on the taps, and we keep lots of gluten-free beer on the shelves in cans and bottles. See some of our favourite brewers below...
To make a gluten free beer, the brewer makes the beer in the traditional way then adds an egg-cupfull of a natural enzyme which breaks down the gluten molecules so that your stomach doesn't have to do it. There is nothing taken out of the beer and you won't taste any difference...just great beer!

“Based on a 1938 recipe, it is tawny-copper in colour, and has stewed fruit (raisins perhaps?) and barley sweetness on the nose, accompanied by hints of almond, Bakewell tart and wood in the background. It’s a noble and assured beer, with plenty of poise on the palate — there’s a restrained vinous-like sweetness, the suggestion of raisins and currants steeped in booze, some slight chocolate, plus a whisper of banana. The finish is dry and appetising bitter with a glissade-like descent of barley cereal sweetness bringing things to a close before the next sip.” – Adrian Tierney-Jones – World Bottled Beers
