We’ve said it plenty of times before over our eight years as a brewery, but when the weather is turning a little warmer, and the nights are drawing out a little longer, there’s nothing quite like a crisp pale ale to toast a hard day’s work after a long stint at the brewkit. As with many of our sub-5% beers, we’ve taken a whole load of inspiration from those first wave brewers of the UK craft beer movement, particularly The Kernel to brew New Thing. Utilising Citra Lupomax and a newly named Australian hop Luna on the cold side, this pale ale positively bursts with bright and spicy citrus notes to the max, before underlying notes of dark berries and fleshy mango dance in the background. A beer perfect for sessioning a couple of pints of in a beer garden, or kicking back watching the world go by on the decking – either way the best pairing for this pale is straight up summer sunshine.
