Okell's

Dr. William Okell, a Cheshire surgeon, started Okell's Brewery in Castle Hill, Douglas, Isle of Man in 1850. He was a man of singular drive and ambition - by 1874 Dr. Okell owned many of the pubs on the island, had convinced Tynwald (the Isle of Man's parliament), to create an act ensuring the purity of beer brewed on the Isle of Man, and built The Falcon Steam Brewery just outside Douglas.

We care about the beers we make, and for our Head Brewer Dr Mike Cowbourne, it's a never ending passion to create the perfect pint of Okell's.

Okell's IPA

(4.5% ABV)
Brewer: 
Okell's

Said to be hoppier than a hopping mad hopi, our rather good Doctor Okell's takes the 200 year old tradition of the strong India Pale Ale to its ultimate, thanks to one of Dr Mike's finest brewing moments...
Doctor Okell's is an extremely light coloured beer with a surprising full bodied taste. The sweetness is offset by a very strong hopping rate. That gives the finished beer an over all roundness with very spicy lemony notes and a fine dry finish to counteract the initial sweetness.

Okell's Manx Pale Ale

(3.6% ABV)
Brewer: 
Okell's

We were considering the future of our traditional Mild, with its lower ABV, when Dr Mike came up with this new recipe for Manx Pale Ale. Against the grain of ever-higher ABV ales, our MPA has proven so popular that it is a firm feature in our Permanent listing. Which just goes to show - you can never underestimate the pure appeal of great taste.

A very light Gold Colour. Aromas of tropical fruit, mango, passion fruit and papaya. Initially sweet flavours of passion fruit and peach leading to an intense dry hop finish

Okell's Bitter

(3.7% ABV)
Brewer: 
Okell's

A true original - a session simply isn't a session if it doesn't involve Okell's world famous Bitter. A golden-coloured beer with a full malt and superb hop aroma, with a long lasting dry-ish hoppy complex finish.
