Admittedly, the craft beer scene can seem a little much at first, with all those fanciful names and cans covered in outlandish artwork. And yes, some people can be snobbish about craft beer, but don’t let that put you off – craft beer is for everyone. You don’t have to know which hop varieties were used in the latest collaboration between two Kickstarted micro-breweries to enjoy a good beer. You can just try new things and see what you like.
If you don’t know where to start or are simply looking for a change from your usual tipples, we’re here to help with this selection of delicious UK beers. There are plenty to be cracking on with, from standard IPAs to coffee-infused porters. Before our product roundup, you’ll find a quick buying guide that should answer any questions you might have about craft beer. And of course, please remember to drink responsibly.
Summery gin, punchy vintage cider, consistent cold brew, collab beers and rebellious rum are just some of the new drinks products to be released.
Bombay Sapphire Sunset
Bombay Sapphire has added to its Special Edition series with a gin designed to cocktail creativity. Sunset is ‘inspired by the mellow heat and orange glow of the setting sun’ and combines the signature flavour of the Bombay Sapphire’s 10 botanicals with an addition of golden turmeric, Indian white cardamom, and Spanish mandarin. The gin has a slightly higher abv of 43% that the distiller says allows for a heightened concentration of spices and can be used to make drinks such as the Sunset Negroni or served with tonic and a slice of orange. Sunset is the second release in the brand’s Special Editions range and follows the launch of its English Estate expression in 2019.
