• Scoundrel, a 4.2% ABV stout, is the latest addition to Rooster’s core range. A blend of brown and chocolate malts and roasted barley combines with English Admiral hops to create roasted malt and chocolate flavours, leading to a balanced hop bitterness.

• Is This Real (5.2% ABV), from Burning Sky, is described as “an unctuous hoppy stout with a rich mouth-coating texture”. Flavours of dark chocolate interplay with the Perle and Chinook hops.

• Faith Unwind is a 0.3% ABV hazy pale ale from Northern Monk. It maintains a soft hoppiness to sit alongside the floral, citrussy, tea-like notes of lemon balm, passionflower, chamomile, and Valerian root.

• Pomona Island have collaborated with Henry & Sally’s on Inflatable Kebab Men, a 5.3% ABV West Coast pale. Hopped with Cryo Amarillo, Chinook, and Citra, it offers sweet bready aromas with notes of spice and clementine. On the palate, you get fragrant pine and bright citrus notes, and a pleasant dry and bitter finish.

• Left Handed Giant have developed a 0.5% ABV West Coast pale, Nothing Ventured, offering a super crisp, hop-forward experience. It has dank pine and citrus peel that harks back to the Santa Rosa original, using cutting-edge hop extracts and alcohol-free production techniques.

• Track’s annual DIPA release Sea Of Stars is back, but this time it’s accompanied by a triple-dry-hopped version, coming in at 8.2% ABV. “A Jeroboam’s worth of Sauvignon blanc complexity is met with puckering gooseberry and passionfruit, soothing lychee, and ripe melon, sticky resin and grassy meadow, and an acerbic slap of mezcal margarita,” says the brewer. “This is Nelson Sauvin at its most visceral.”
