Brewed in collaboration with Reading Amateur Brewers and Elusive Brewing this recipe uses a clean malt bill with six different hops to deliver a beer that's nicely bitter with a new world citrussy hop profile.
Elusive Brewing Company, Finchampstead, Berkshire.
A Traditional Pale Ale, but brewed using a couple of firm favourite, exciting hop varieties. German Huell Melon teams up with US-grown Citra for a cocktail of citrus fruit and resinous pine flavours. This mid-strength beer has a firm bitterness and a soft orange hue from a little bit of Vienna malt in the mash.
Delphic Brewing Company, Thatcham, Berkshire.
Shadow of the Beast is an Elusive classic! This Black IPA uses roasted wheat malt to give it a dark appearance and moderately roasty malt profile. We then add Citra and Mosaic hops across six additions to layer in a lovely citrus-forward hop profile. The malts play really nicely with the hops in this one!

Brewed in the classic 1850 London style, this porter has plenty of chocolate and coffee notes, complimented by a subtle bitterness and smooth finish.
Indigenous Brewery, Chaddleworth, Newbury.
A 4% IPA that delivers far more than its modest strength suggests. Brewed with Strata and Krush hops, it opens with an enticing wave of ripe tropical fruit, citrus zest, and subtle berry notes, before revealing a deeper, resinous backbone that lingers on the palate. A gentle haze softens the edges, wrapping bold flavours and layered aromas in a smooth, easy-drinking body. Light, vibrant, and compelling — a performance you’ll want to experience again and again.

Made with freshly pressed juice from British apples – just like our signature cider. But here’s the twist: we’ve also blended in juice from British-farmed blackcurrants and blackberries. The bold, fruity flavours are perfectly balanced with a crisp, clean and refreshing finish. Perfect for summer drinking and berry f**king good.
