Hobsons- 'Under the hat' blog

Revolutionising Real Ale: Introducing Easy Cask At Hobsons Brewery, we’re passionate about bringing the best of real ale to every venue, big or small. That’s why we’re excited to introduce Easy Cask, an innovative system designed to make serving cask beer easier, more efficient, and accessible to a broader range of outlets.

First released as a colab with Brew By numbers, Brewed first in 2019 but now a top quality session beer in our core range. Originally called Mosaic and Citra!

Why brew a Green Hop Beer? For us it embellishes natural brewing and celebrates the British hop harvest, we’re passionate about supporting local farmers and using the best ingredients to brew interesting beers. Green Hop beers give a different type of flavour and aroma which is fresh hop flavour with some grassy and “green” notes.

 A rich nutty brown ale with earthy undertones and notes of caramel and toffee. An all-British line up of hops in Northdown, Target and East Kent Goldings make for a complex, smooth and beautifully balanced beer.

At Hobsons, we’re tipping our hat to NORTH with our latest collaborative beer. Olicana is a punchy IPA, expect tropical fruit flavours and aromas with a complex bitterness.

Zany is a Harlequin Hop Pale Ale bursting with tropical fruit flavours and aromas including passionfruit, peach and pineapple.

Bootiful is a particularly special beer, it’s been designed and brewed by our very own Colin Booton, who’s been part of the team here for 7 years now!

Hobsons airstream bar Sylvia makes her way to various events throughout the year, always serving up a range of quality Hobsons cask, keg and bottled beers and Oldfields Cider. Here’s a list of everywhere you can find Sylvia this events season!

It’s that time of year again, Green Hop is here! On Friday 15th September, the Hobsons team headed down to Spilsbury & Jones Co Orleton Court Farm, just 10 miles from Hobsons, to collect freshly picked Challenger hops.
