Beer is best consumed fresh. Actually, the fresher the better.

DB takes care to ensure our beer is made to a high standard and we always use the most natural ingredients available.

Beer on tap at your local bar is the freshest, tastiest beer available.
All our concept bars have a selection of DB beers on tap, and cold for your enjoyment.

For those of you who prefer to drink our beers at home, to prevent it from aging too fast and to enable you to consume it fresh, retailers rotate their stock, keeping levels at an optimum to make sure our beer gets to you in the best shape possible.

At home, light is beer's biggest enemy. Sunlight or superficial light will cause beer to develop a skunky taste. The key is to keep beer out of direct light or leave it in the light protecting packaging it comes in.

Always serve beer in clean glasses as the presence of grease destroys the foam or head on the beer.

To test if a glass is clean, fill until overflowing with water, then tip the water out and hold the glass upside down. If the water forms a continuous sheet inside and out, it is clean. Spotting indicates the presence of grease - something you may not mind with Fish n Chips, but definitely not with beer!
