Howling Hops brew bold, modern, uncompromised, flavoursome, generously hopped beers. All our beers are unfiltered, unpasteurised and suitable for vegans. We still stick to our early philosophy of ‘make some interesting beer’, although not every one is different these days. We have a core of 4 beers that we brew regularly, a couple of beers we brew seasonally and every 3 or 4 weeks we brew a different single batch beer.

Cask at The Rusty Bucket, Eltham. Gold pour with a white head. Sweet fruity nose, lots of tropical fruits, peach, pineapple, sweet citrus. Peach,apricot & tropical fruit taste, spot of citrus fruits coming through in the back end. Quite nutty. Fruit laden lightly hoppy finish. Very nice indeed.

Cask @ Tap and Can. Pours dark, good beige head. Encouraging nose, roasty with good dark malt layers. Flavour profile delivers balanced roast, choc & malt expressions.. it's all here, cask-style. Cracking.

Cask at the Southampton Arms, London on 15th February 2024. Brownish copper with shallow off-white foam and scant lacing. Biscuit and caramel malt aroma. Malts, candied peel and spices in-mouth, and a finish reflecting the liquid drain. Full bodied with an engaging mouthfeel.

Keg draught at the Real Ale Classroom, Leicester city centre. Mid- to dark gold and hazy with an uneven film of white head. Nose is fruity and slightly floral, some candy sugar. Taste gives notes of lime leaf and tangerine, it's sweet with a bitter edge and maybe slightly dirty. Body is full enough with medium carbonation. I expected a lot more.
