Description
In 2011 we Howling Hops reopened the Cock tavern on Mare street as Hackney’s first brewpub. The brewery expanded a few times but still couldn’t really keep up with the demand. So in 2015 the brewery moved to the current address in the heart of Hackney Wick.

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.

On tap at the Southampton Arms, London on 18th March 2025. Opaquely hazy amber with shallow white foam affording full lacing. Rich and intense tropical fruitiness and nuttiness in aroma. Spiced citrus, hints of salt and rich tropical fruits in-mouth, and a zesty finish. Zingy mouthfeel and a full body.

Not super exciting. Slight cheesiness to it which is a bit weird. Kind of wheaty again.
