Electric Bear Wukkas

• Electric Bear have developed an Aussie IPA. No Wukkas comes in at 6% ABV and us bursting with Eclipse, Enigma, and Vic Secret hops. It delivers big, juicy over-ripe fruit bowl vibes — honeydew melon, passionfruit, and pineapple — while being “soft, lush, and effortlessly drinkable”.

Bluntrock Droopy Drawers

• Bluntrock have collaborated with Cold Shelter on Droopy Drawers, the latest in a series of bingo-themed brews. The 4.4% ABV hazy pale is hopped with Simcoe on the hot side for strong pine backbone, and Riwaka, Azacca, and Strata on the cold side for dank citrus, passionfruit, and strawberry notes, and a subtle resinous undertone.

Northern Monk David Bailey

• Northern Monk’s second collaboration with Manchester illustrator David Bailey is a 5.4% ABV American brown ale. The classic brown ale malt is filled out with a forest full of Chinook to bring a load of pine resin, white pepper and citrus pith to an otherwise buttery biscuit base.

Left Handed Elevated

• Elevated Era (8% ABV) is a fresh hazy IPA from Left Handed Giant, hopped with Citra, Riwaka, and Peacherine. There’s tropical complexity from a blend of early- and late-harvested Freestyle Peacharine. A cold addition of Citra Prysma has added a hint of lilac to the aroma, while Riwaka brings a ripe splash of golden kiwi fruit. Expect notes of sweet lemon, yellow nectarine, and papaya.

Pomona Island Stars

• Pomona Island call their new 6.3% ABV IPA All The Stars That Never Were. Hopped with Cryo Motueka, Cryo Mosaic, Bru-1, and Citra, it offers an aroma of lime oil. On the palate, it’s lime cordial, with thick lime peel on the finish and a hint of green mango.

Track Split Screen

• Split Screen is an 8.2% ABV DIPA given the double-dry-hop treatment by Track. It contains three different forms of Citra in dry hop: pellets, Dynaboost, and Liquid Lupulin, giving the beer an extreme citrus quality but also more of the hop’s underlying tropical, stonefruit and dank notes. It’s supported by New Zealand hop trio Nectaron, Motueka, and Peacharine.

Vibrant Forest Kick Start

• Kick-Start (5.7% ABV), from Vibrant Forest, was born 10 years ago as part of an experimental series, RadicAle. It didn’t have a name then, just Oat and Coffee Stout, but now it’s back. It’s a rich, espresso-forward stout with dark malts, oats, and warming chocolate.

Oakham Junkyard

• Three Brit Hops with distinct New World characteristics combine in this new Oakham pale ale Junkyard (4% ABV). “The spicy, aromatic, blackcurrant and lemon notes of Bramling Cross work brilliantly with the intense tropical and citrus flavours and complex bitterness of Jester and Olicana,” says the brewer.

Polly's Skyline

• Like The Skyline (8% ABV) is described as a “tropical orchard punch of a DIPA” by Polly’s. Hybridising techniques have been used in a brew hopped with Idaho 7 and Mosaic in T90 pellets and CGX formats, dry-hopped warmer to unlock more hop character.
