OUR LINEUP THIS WEEKEND Helles, hazy pale, clear pale, nitro dark lager, mix ferm lager, oyster stout, hoppy pils, wine/beer hybrid. We got it all baby.

PINOT NOIR FIZZ 🍇✨ A fun beer brewed with Scatterlings, using wild yeasts from Byker, and pinot noir skins from North Yorkshire.

Brace of new lagers for your enjoyment. Ft chat about Kerry katona and miso.

Over in Sweden brewing lager beer with Omnipollo. (They have bankers!)

We have re-brewed our Koji rice lager. "Donmai" collaboration with Minoh beer in Osaka, with some tweaks to the koji process below. It is rice, malt and noble hops, but tastes like tinned peaches and cream. I don't think ive ever been so excited for one of our beers. More as it develops x

I’m not usually a great fan of tap rooms. Fortunately, I’m only 5 mins from the Donzoko one. The giant red curtain does a good job of deadening the sound. Horrible sound is what puts me off most taprooms.

UK hops + flavours in general are more subtle than some of their new world counterparts. We attempted to bring them out in HIDDEN SOUNDS, a pils we made with @cloudwaterbrew.bsky.social hopped with english Solero, big white peach nectarine floral oily whistle clean lager beer!

Look at that foam on the furthest away pint. Bankers.

Donzoko has now bought Tilray Brands.

We got this lovely sign from Dave Bailey and since then the taproom has been >50% busier than last year. Enchanted object.

Chatted to the beeb about how shite AI is www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Got some new caps which ask the question on everybody's lips. Donzoko.co.uk

CELLARS is a 6.2% bock, brewed with "Most" hops. It tastes like strawberries hay and honey. It's usually a taproom exclusive but I have decided to release it wider.

Hey everyone we're BACK! Join us on the Youtubes for 45 minutes of cosy, heartfelt chats about Franconian lager, northern beer culture, the beers in our heads, and erm... nitro lagers... with the inimitable lager legends Donzoko. youtu.be/T55_Ft0CKfM

HEARTWOOD is a 5.5% west coast pale, rippingly bitter, but contrasted with new, fruitier varieties of hops, namely Strata and Alora. Big melony strawberry, then a rip of pine sap bitterness, a pint of two halves. 🪵🌲🍺

TYNESIDE LAMBIC TRAIL 2026 24/25 Jan 26 Looking forward to once again joining some great Tyneside bars to show off the best in lambic and mixed ferm beer from the UK, Belgium and Beyond. Details coming. Save the date and please share!

Made a low booze IPA for those taking a break, with Alora hops, which is a particularly delicious variety.

Instead of visiting the £75M Guinness brewery where they don't make Guinness why not visit the £0.25M Donnies brewery where they make Donnies.

Once Bitten, Twice Shy. Afestive treat of a red IPA. Also a public service announcement about gift boxes.
