Hillstown Pamoja

The Pamoja Black IPA with speciality coffee is called ‘Pamoja’ meaning collective in Swahili, got together with a collective consisting of a local designer, local speciality coffee shop and a local videographer to produce this special beer. Black IPA with coffee is very complex and one of the best beers have ever produced, everyone involved is a small scale producer or designer or local talent. Hillstown brewed a fruity hop forward IPA and ran lots of tests with the expertise of Johnny Hickinson from Middletown Coffee in Ballymena (formerly aeropress coffee champion and owner of Middletown Coffee Company) to source a coffee that would be fruity and balance well with the fruity hops used.
