Siren Role Reversal

• Role Reversal (6.4% ABV) is Siren’s first New England IPA of 2026. It brings with it a haze of fruit-forward hops. Expect a pillowy-soft mouthfeel and a glowing opaque pour with a distinct tropical aroma.

Thornbridge Red Mountain

• Green Mountain, Thornbridge’s hazy session IPA, is the starting point for Red Mountain, a new 4.3% ABV session red IPA. “A refined malt bill gives this a magnificent ruby colour and a touch of sweetness, which stays fantastically balanced with the tropical hopping regime Green Mountain is famed for,” says the brewer.

Dock Split D

• I wonder what the inspiration was for Split The D, Docks Beers’ 4.2% ABV nitro stout? Pouring smoothly with a cascading settle and a tight, creamy head, it has an all-British grain bill of barley, wheat, and oats, layered with dark crystal, chocolate malt, and roasted barley. British Fuggles keep the bitterness subtle and balanced.

Track Sans

• SANS is a new alcohol-free range from Track, building on the success of AF versions of Sonoma and Arosa. Each iteration of SANS will feature different hops, starting with Citra and Eggers Special for notes of bright lime zest, passionfruit martini, pink grapefruit lemonade, and white grape.

Left Handed Light Festival

• The organisers of Bristol Light Festival, which has just begun and which runs until 28th February, have collaborated with Left Handed Giant on Light It Up, a 4.8% ABV hazy pale. “A beautifully balanced hazy number, featuring a hat trick of hops that are sure to put a smile on your face,” says the brewer. Those hops are Citra, Mosaic, and El Dorado.

Verdant Do Anything

Fresh Verdant DIPA How You Do Anything Is How You Do Everything (8% ABV) utilises two brash experimental New Zealand  hops — NZH-109 and NZH-106 — paired with powerful Nectaron. “Expect incredible, exciting pungency amid pillowy soft slugs!” says the brewer.

Electric Bear Brew It

• All I Wanna Do Is Brew It (6.5% ABV) is described by Electric Bear as a “bold, punchy IPA, bursting with modern hop firepower”. Vic Secret brings the tropical heat with flashes of ripe pineapple, Elani cuts through with sharp, zesty citrus, and Citra layers in classic grapefruit and juicy mango. All of it wrapped in a properly dank, resinous edge.

Northern Monk Stacks

• The annual release of Northern Monk’s Stacks, an 8.4% ABV chocolate and hazelnut spread pancake stout, is here. “This is our annual celebration of Pancake Day, where we make our way through all the childhood filling favourites,” says the brewer.

Drop Project Razza

• Freestyle Hops have provided experimental variety NZH-106 to Polly’s for 4% ABV pale ale Quiet Hour. Backing this up is a new blend of Nelson Sauvin, named Bliss. “Taking early-harvested Nelson and blending it with purposely stressed, ultra late-harvested crops, the result is a hop that is outrageously tropical, with complex sweet citrus, and a light dankness that only Nelson brings to the party,” says the brewer.
