The Five Points Brewing Company has announced a new addition to its seasonal range for summer 2020, coming in at just 2.8% ABV.
Created with conscious drinkers in mind, Five Points’ lower-strength Micro Pale is packed with Cascade and Vic Secret hops, making it micro in strength but mighty in flavour.
“Micro Pale is perfect for those looking to reduce their alcohol consumption during lockdown, without stopping entirely,” says the brewer.
The news comes as the Five Points-operated pub and Hackney institution, The Pembury Tavern, re-opens for take-away service, serving up its legendary Red, Green and White pizzas, as well a much-missed pint of Five Points.
Ed Mason, co-founder and managing director of Five Points, said: “Our Micro Pale is the perfect session beer for these times. Packed full of flavour, but only 2.8% in strength, it’s a great option for those warm summer evenings after a long day working from home.
“It’s also our first new beer launched under lockdown. We had been planning Micro Pale as a draught-only release initially, but when the lockdown began we had to pivot rapidly and get the beer into bottles so our customers would still get a chance to enjoy it from home.”
