Modern twist on an English IPA. Traditional English yeast, meets our New England IPA approach, meets new UK hops Jester and Harlequin.
Jester® is a seedling of Cascade. It was our first foray into New World aromas and remains the most widely planted of our proprietary varieties. Punchy and resinous, the flavour profile of Jester® balances well with full bodied beers. It’s citrus notes are highlighted when used with a light hand or as part of a blend. Harlequin is a grand-daughter of Jester®, and was named after its remarkably patterned bracts. It was first offered commercially in 2019. Harlequin bursts with New World aromatics whilst maintaining a subtle hint of UK terroir. Delicate and tropical in pale beers, it shows unique marmalade and candied fruit notes
