Hop King founders Ben and Ludi Hopkinson
Hop King Brewery has taken to crowdfunding to build its status as the UK’s go-to beer and skateboarding brand.
Hop King produces a pale ale which “tries to bridge the gap between a mainstream lager and an over-hopped craft ale”.
But founders Ben and Ludi Hopkinson and their team have also designed and produced a clothing range, skateboard decks, and have an official Hop King Skate Team, with three pros and four amateurs.
In its crowdfunding pitch, Hop King says: “We want to create a London HQ with a difference — The Hop Kingdom. A warehouse / office / taproom / skate park / events space that will be a hub of awesomeness in London.
“This space will not only allow us a place to work from and store stock, but it will be a place of collaboration, creation and inspiration, as well as a revenue generator for us.”
