For International Women’s Day we developed and brewed a beer with our female staff. Rosy in colour and fruity in flavour, this is a beer for everyone!

The base beer is a classic american IPA brewed with some crystal malt for sweetness and a large helping of barbe rouge hops for some nice berry-like flavour. We made a blend of dried hibiscus and rose hips with a touch of dried orange and raspberry for some sweetness. The resulting beer is nice and herbal IPA with some fruit notes and beautiful pink hue.
