THE DUCKS: NZ HOP HARVEST SERIES 🦆

This week belongs to the Southern Hemisphere, with the 2026 release of The Ducks - our series brewed to celebrate the New Zealand hop harvest. Every year, we get hyped beyond belief when the hops we’ve rubbed at harvest time, and selected finally land in the brewery and get into a b**r!

The idea behind the series is to strip everything back so we can see how each hop presents, then use what we learn in our b**rs for the rest of the year. Normally we prefer to layer hops in 2s, 3’s or 4’s in our IPAs but the aim here is to get to know the harvest as closely as we can. The single hop pales are where that really pays off - with nowhere for the hop to hide, you can home in on the layered aromas and flavours that belong to each variety.

The first of the 26’ harvest of New Zealand hops come from Freestyle Hops , who we’ve worked with for years and whose hops have a deep, punchy quality we really love - we often love them for expressing very specific aromas and flavours.

The trio is a single hop Nelson Sauvin pale, a single hop Motueka pale, and a NEIPA that brings the two together, with Riwaka layered in late in the dry hop.

We’d really recommend drinking them side by side, so you can taste each hop doing its thing before seeing how they play together.

Dropping in the the taprooms tomorrow and available on the webshop now 💥

LE DUCK 🦆 5% DDH Single Hop Nelson Pale Ale

A single hop pale ale built entirely around Freestyle’s Nelson Sauvin ‘Bliss Process’, grown at their Nelson Lakes farm in New Zealand. Rather than betting on one perfect harvest day or pick window, Bliss blends hops picked early in the season with hops picked late, so you don’t have to choose between the two sides of Nelson. You get the spritzy white w**e notes from the early pick and the lush tropicals from the later one. Basically Nelson’s Greatest Hits, all killer no filler!

LA DUCK 🦆 5% DDH Single Hop Motueka Pale

A single hop pale ale showcasing Motueka, an NZ hop famous for its fresh lime zest character. The Motueka in this b**r was grown at Freestyle’s flagship farm in the Sunrise Valley and picked mid-harvest which gives aromas of bright lime a

US HOP SELECTION 2026 🌱

If you’ve been following our Stories over the past couple of weeks, you’ll know co-founder James and head brewer Chris have been stateside for Hop Selection with .

They were there to lock in theeee freshest, best quality Mosaic, Simcoe and Krush for upcoming brews – seeking out the lots that shine with all the characteristics we love to taste in our b**rs.

Whilst there, they visited the hop ranches to see the harvest in full swing, and all the hard work that takes a hop from bine to box 🚀

SOCIALLY INAPPROPRIATE FOOTWEAR 🩴 5% West Coast IPA

A modern twist on a classic shoe. A modern twist on a classic West Coast!

We’ve been on a proper Westie hype since crushing some life-changing IPAs on our recent trip to the Pacific Northwest, so we’re stretching the adventure out a little longer with a West Coast release this week. We’ve blended a trio of hops from that very corner of the world – the dank tropicals of Strata with the citrusy, piney bitterness of Columbus and Centennial – for layers of juicy fruit and a snappy bitter finish. We recommend half a size up.

HERE FOR THE DEERE 🦌 4.5% SESSION IPA

Another instalment in our John Deere Lifestyle range, because man do we yearn for the quiet country life. Perched atop a ride-on mower, cold one in hand, country songs blasting as we watch the sun set over our sprawling acres. Alas, we’re firmly in industrial estate territory with only a forklift to ride on and city rats for company (sob). Taking inspo from country singer and tractor enthusiast Luke Bryan, we’ve channelled our yearning into the b**r we reckon he would be cracking open in his anthem for a generation, ‘Drinkin’ B**r & Wastin’ Bullets’ (once the Miller Lite runs out, obvs).

Citra and Motueka make for a crushable mix of soft, juicy stone fruit and zesty orange, finished with a bright tropical lime twist. Sitting here waiting on a deer, drinkin’ b**r.

FORESTGATEBIER 2026 🌳 5.3% HAZY PALE

Back for V6! The return of our not-so-traditional Fest(ish) bier, our annual celebration of the community that’s supported us from day one!

Loosely inspired by Oktoberfest, it’s a nod to Forest Gate, the home of our original brewhouse and taproom, and the place where it all started. This year’s hazy pale comes with a brand new hop bill featuring Idaho 7 Cryo, Idaho 7 CGX, Citra and Nectaron, piling in juicy pineapple, ripe apricot and passionfruit with a zesty citrus snap. The label features a hand-drawn map of the Forest Gate area by our super illustrator Nanna Koekoek.

If you’re local, join us at the FG tappy today from 4pm for Forestoberfest to celebrate the release. Forestgatebier will be pouring for £4.50 a pint and Papi’s Munchies - Sourdough Pizza are serving up a one-off pizza special with roasted potatoes, sausage and sage butter. You’ll also be able to pick up A4 prints of the label illustration and cans to enjoy on the sofa!

Also pouring at the other taprooms and available on the webshop.

PDBC x PRIZM ✨🔑 LOW KEY - 7% NEIPA

We’ve bumped into Mo, co-founder of PRIZM BREWING CO. in Montpellier, a few times over the last couple of years and have always been drawn to his completely chill, low-key energy 🤙

After plenty of shared b**rs, it was only a matter of time before we got one in the tanks together. So, when Mo hit us up to say he was coming over to London for a “low key ops” trip, we finally made it happen 🤝

Low Key is a 7% zinger of a NEIPA loaded with NZ hops. The hot side is all Nelson Sauvin, including a ‘hop dip’ of Nelson SubZero Hop Kief for a deeply saturated, tangy tropical base. A hefty dry hop of Nectaron and Peacharine piles on wildly aromatic stone fruit, juicy nectarine and sweet citrus.

BLAUI PEPPERONI 💙 5.5% Raspberry Sour

A few weeks ago, our pals at BIERlab in Zurich popped over to brew a sour with us and introduced us to a Bierlab tradition - naming all their collabs after pop songs.

Naturally, we took this as an opportunity to dive into the world of Swiss pop and discovered Blaui Pepperoni, a 2014 Swiss-German hit by Lo & Leduc, which pairs upbeat synthy pop with surprisingly bleak lyrics 🥲

Blaui Pepperoni is a pure raspberry sour. Pouring a ruby red, it’s juicy and tart, with a little sweetness to soften the edges.

For the label, Nanna took cues from the bold, graphic work of Italian artist Enzo Mari - a small nod to the Swiss-German use of the Italian ‘Pepperoni’ for pepper, rather than the German ‘Paprika’.
