New Beers!
NEW BEERS!
May was an extremely busy month for us all at Brick with loads of tap takeovers, meet the brewers, tastings, collaborations and generally being busy in the brewery to get beer into your hands! In amongst the May madness saw the release of 2 new and one-off beers released at the end of the month.
STRAWBERRY AND CUCUMBER SOUR, 4.5%
The latest in our Sour Series, we aimed to encompass the best flavours of a typical British summertime and throw it into a beer… just in time for this BBQ appropriate weather we are very much enjoying. Inspired by quintessential picnics on the beach, BBQs and countryside adventures and using ingredients synonymous with British summer time, the combination of strawberries and cucumbers evokes memories of sunny afternoons spent with friends and family; just how we want this beer to be enjoyed… (our beer version of that typical summertime drink, most famously drank and Wimbledon).
A sessionable 4.5% makes it perfect to enjoy on a hot, summer’s day; the strawberry adds a fresh sweetness whilst the cucumber adds a refreshing and cooling balance to the tartness of the sour beer.
DIPA, 8.7%
After the success of our Mango DIPA back in February we fancied giving this popular style another go with a straight up, no fuss, hop-packed DIPA. The hop bill of Ekuanot, Mosaic and Simcoe create that bitter marmalade flavour, sweet malts and grapefruit juiciness help to keep this DIPA light. In the finish there is a lingering hoppy and rind bitterness.
Dangerously drinkable despite the 8.7%, this pairs perfectly with the juicy and smoky BBQ meats being served up in your garden.
You can buy the DIPA online from our website, just head over to Shop or both of them from loads of great outlets including:
But be quick…once they’re gone they’re gone
Brewery Open Day!
We are throwing open the doors to our brewery once again to give you a chance to see the site, take an informal brewery tour, grab yourself some beers, food, enjoy the music and then buy some cans to take home!
We’ll see you Saturday 9th June from 12noon – 6pm
Sheffield here we come!
On Thursday 28th June we are hitting the Steel City for the very first time with a Tap Takeover at the Devonshire Cat with 5 keg and 2 cask beers, showing a diverse range of Brick beers. We’re so excited to spend time in a city that 2 of our staff called home for a long time!
Join us for beers, meet some of the team and get to know Brick Brewery.
Brewers Banquet
We are really excited to be invited to help our friends at London Beer Lab celebrate their 5th Birthday with a very special brewers banquet!
6 specially brewed birthday collaboration beers will be expertly paired with 6 carefully designed dishes to create unique flavour combinations that are sure to give your tastebuds a very special treat! This is a true one-off event, all of the breweries involved have played a part in London Beer Lab’s journey so far which makes all the collaborations that bit more special to them. Our brewer, Russ, worked with them when we both first started and so he jumped at the chance of working together again.
All the breweries involved will be on hand on the night to talk about their beer, the inspiration behind them & about their paired dish. We will explain the thought process behind our pairing & why exactly that dish was chosen.
The food will be prepared by Malt & Pepper who specialise in cooking with beer & creating amazing dishes & menus that showcase the versatility of beer as an ingredient in food rather just as an accompaniment.
Our beer is a dry hopped sour made with Antipodean hops and you will need to wait until the night to see what we are pairing it with, but boy will it be good.
Hosted by the King & Co, join us and 5 other breweries for a fabulous night full of beer and food on 12th June.

On Saturday 12th May why not join us for a tasting of our single hop specials along with some extra special guest beers including Cloudwater and The Kernel.
