... We won't tolerate ‘dull’ or ‘boring’, so whether it be from a cask or from a cask we want our beer to excite the palate and stimulate the taste buds.

Vibrant Forest is a small microbrewery located on the edge of The New Forest in Hardley and our passion is to develop, experiment and brew richly flavoured beer full of exceptional character. Beer is incredibly versatile, so it's time to show you an uncompromising approach to flavour. At our brewery taproom you can sample and purchase our beer for drinking at the brewery or to take home and enjoy later. We always aim to have a large range of cans available and a range of keg/draft. When visiting the brewery you may meet the brewer, taste some malt, smell some amazing hops and learn more about how our great beer is made. We actively welcome those who enjoy our beers and want to share the passion.

// TENTH HARVEST //

5.8% Green Hopped Saison 🌿🍻

To celebrate our absolute legend of a head brewer, Jon, surviving 10 years at Vibrant Forest, we've brewed something very special!

This Saison was brewed using fresh green hops from Hukins Hops in Kent, less than 24 hours after they were picked. Something we've never done before here at Vibrant!

A huge, wheaty Saison. Bright, grassy and vibrant, bursting with fresh green hop character and classic Belgian Saison esters. This is an EPIC b**r!

Jon (who absolutely did not want to be on video) is such a huge part of what makes Vibrant Forest what it is today. An all-round fantastic human and an incredibly talented, well-respected brewer. We're ridiculously lucky to have him.

10 years of incredible b**rs, hard work and putting up with the rest of us. What a legend!

We love you, Jon!

// KALEIDOSCOPE // 🍁🍂🌳🍺

IPA // 6.5%

This is a PROPER IPA! 🍺

One of the OGs from the Forest!

For a lot of people locally, this might well have been their first introduction to big, bold, properly hoppy American-style IPAs.

Every time we bring this b**r back, the memories come flooding back, and we're reminded exactly why we keep doing what we do!

Big. Hoppy. Fruity. Bitter.

Everything you want and need from a proper IPA.

An old favourite for a reason.

KALEIDOSCOPE IS BACK!

// METAMORPH // 🍺🌳🌤

5.5% Pale Ale

A bit of a sneaky favourite here at Vibrant. Hopped with Citra and Amarillo, Metamorph is designed to sit somewhere between East and West Coast in style.

A soft, oaty malt bill and London Fog yeast bring the smooth, hazy character of the East, while a shedload of bittering hops delivers that punchy West Coast edge.

Soft and full-bodied, with vibrant hop character and a firm, bitter finish.

And don’t forget – ALL B**R IS 15% OFF ONLINE UNTIL WEDNESDAY! 🍻
