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.

Cloudy light yellow beer, small aery and a bit irregular white head, unstable, non adhesive. Aroma: lovely, lots and lots of tropical fruits, juicy, some marijauna, dank hops, very nice, sweet impression, a hint of vanilla, some citrus. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: a little sweet up front, lots of tropical fruits, citrus, juicy, a little dank, bitter touch, grapefruit. Aftertaste: hoppy, a bit dank, resinous hops, lots of tropical fruits, juicy, some citrus, very nice, lovely beer!
