BBQ Collab with Dave The Baker
The second summer BBQ collab by Lightnin' Hot Things is launching at Orbit Beers Taproom on Saturday 14th May, and you don’t want to miss it!
Featuring:
• A mind-melting BBQ menu from Martin (@Lightninghotthings) with bread cooked over the fire from Dave the Baker (@thebreaducator).
• Appetiser and a free beer included in the ticket price.
• Impeccable vibes throughout
Martin (LHT) and Dave have worked together in so many different formats over so many years, mostly out of the back of vans, in fields, large tents and over fire pits.
Dave the Baker (@thebreaducator) is currently Head Baker at @pumpstbakery and is co-writing a book called 'Backyard Baking' with @djbbq and @tbone_chops (out next year via Quadrille).
They'll be using produce from Dave's Suffolk allotment (plot 7B) along with coals and wood from @whittleandflamecharcoal and meat as always from the amazing @swaledalebutchers to put on a feast of biblical proportions.

Meet the Brewer - Hakata Pale Launch & Food Pairing Menu
The Hakata Pale was tailor-made for their Japanese inspired menu and has a rich complexity that complements their dishes perfectly.
Lemon peel and lemon verbena on the nose, with more citrus flavours of coconut, lemongrass, & coriander on the palate, create a drinkable pale ale, with a refreshingly dry finish.
We used a pale English malt base, with the addition of some wheat malt to give a full and silky mouthfeel and to compliment wheat-based ramen noodles. Fermented with a specific yeast strain chosen to add subtle 'red apple' flavours, the beer has a distinctive, unique characteristic from Sorachi Ace, a hop variety developed in Japan in the 1970s.
If you can't come along to the tasting night. We definitely recommend going along for dinner and asking the Hakata team for the perfect food pairings.
