Thursday 22nd May
Hakata Pale Ale Launch
The beer will be available from 19th May in bottles on the web shop, then we’re launching it on draft at the taproom on Thursday 22nd May.
This pale ale is designed to complement the spring/summer menu at Hakata Ramen bar in Bermondsey. Bursting with vibrant hop character, it showcases Sorachi Ace, Citra, and Columbus. Sorachi Ace—a unique Japanese hop variety developed in the 1970s—brings bright notes of lemon verbena on the nose, followed by delicate hints of coconut and dill on the palate. Citra and Columbus add further layers of citrus, balanced by resinous pine and a full, rounded mouthfeel.
Launch Event: Thursday 22nd May
We'll have the new Hakata Pale Ale on tap on Thursday 22nd May, and we're pairing it with some delicious sake from Kanpai Brewery who are also based in Bermondsey. A rare chance to try this rice wine at the taproom by the glass alongside our new pale ale as well as the rice lager. If you have one of our locals cards you'll get a pint on the house that evening.
See you then!
