Wild Hare (5% ABV), from Bath Ales, has been officially certified as a gluten-free product by Coeliac UK.
The neck label on Wild Hare bottles, available in Waitrose stores nationwide, now features the crossed grain symbol. Promoted by coeliac organisations worldwide, it is trusted by those who need to follow a gluten-free diet — those with coeliac disease or an intolerance to gluten.
Crisp and fresh with a subtle hint of citrus bitterness, Wild Hare is a golden ale bursting with hedgerow fruit notes. It uses English-grown First Gold hops to add fleshy fruits, floral acacia, and lots of citrus notes to the beer’s light, malty taste.
Georgina Young, Bath Ales’ new head brewer said: “We test every batch of Wild Hare for traces of gluten straight after fermentation and before dispatching it to supermarkets.
“An estimated one in ten people avoid gluten in the UK, so we’re delighted to be expanding our portfolio and creating a beer that everybody is able to enjoy.”
Wild Hare is now available from Waitrose stores nationwide and select supermarkets throughout the South West, including Asda, Sainsburys, Morrisons, Majestic, Spar, Co-Op, McColls and Tesco.
