UK CRAFT BEER RELEASES 21st -27th March 2022 Radio City Beer Works King 6.5% IPA Brewed with wheat and oats, late editions of Mosaic and Meridian hops shine through the soft malty base to provide flavours of sweet melon, lemon and peach. With higher IBUs to balance the sweet malt base, KING weighs in at 6.5%. Wild Beer Co. One A Penny 5% Hot Cross Bun IPA Inspired by the Hot Cross Bun. Smooth body - just like a Hazy IPA, but with almost no hops. Expect a subtle and complex spicing from nutmeg, allspice and cinnamon with a hint of vanilla to give the character of sweetness and pastry. To top it all off you get a lovely fruity background coming from the cooked raisins. Two Tribes Brewing Roxy Club 5% Cold IPA Loads of Citra, Centennial and Cascade hops were added to the whirlpool for flavours of grapefruit and orange zest. A dry hop with Strata and Simcoe gives the beer extra complexity, with dank pine forest aromas. Unity Brewing Co. Kalopsia ‘22 8% DIPA It's that time of year when all their favourite Northern Hemisphere hops have arrived and Unity brews Kalopsia. An amalgamation of hops from their house beers, this time with Citra, Mosaic, Idaho-7 and Columbus. Chain House Brewing Co. High Lonesome 3.2% Table Beer A Citra Table Beer. Clean, refreshing and super drinkable. North Brewing Co. Chocolate Chilli Stout 8% Stout Collab with Thicc Sauce. A Mexican Mole inspired Chocolate and Chilli stout. With Pasilla, Chipotle, Ancho and Mulato peppers. Chocolate malt, backed up with Munich, crystal, mild ale, black, special B and amber malt provide an insanely smooth and rich dark chocolate base. Lashings of deliciously smooth chocolate and fudge kick it all off, with a roasty backbone through the middle and a mild, sweet and smoky heat that builds throughout. 4

Snap Happy 6.5% IPA A new DDH IPA brewed with Simcoe, Mosaic and Sabro hops. Villages Brewery Merlin 5% West Coast Pale Ale Columbus used as a bittering hop for the smooth bitterness it brings to this beer, followed by Idaho 7 in the whirlpool to introduce layers of tropical fruit. A dry-hop addition of El Dorado, Chinook, and Simcoe brings the pineapple and pine aromas. Phantom Brewing Co. Coral 8.7% Fruited Sour A take on the Mermaid cocktail. This eye-catching sour combines the irresistible flavours of Blue Raspberry, Coconut and Pineapple to create a supercharged drinking experience. Phantom Brewing Co.

Plant Curls 5.5% DDH Pale Ale Citra and Mosaic with Idaho 7 and Talus. Sorely underrated, these two latter hops bring pink grapefruit, pine resin and floral notes to keep everything balanced against the ripe pineapple, mango, and passionfruit of the Citra and Mosaic. 5
Polly’s Brew Co. Sweet Treasure 4.6% Sloe Sour A sour beer utilising both early picked sloe berries and late picked sloe berries - the early picked berries bringing a lip-smacking tartness to the party, whilst the more mature later picked fruit brings very subtle, sweet almond notes to finish things off.

Brewed with Citra, El Dorado Cryo, El Dorado and Motueka. Northern Monk OFS067 7.4% Red IPA A tribute to 8 Wired “Tall Poppy”, a landmark beer for New Zealand craft brewing which won awards and captured the attention of drinkers and brewers alike when it first hit Europe. With a malty base combining caramel and fruit, they've used the same hops as the original and turned everything up a notch in true Monk style. Northern Monk OFS068 8.3% DIPA A straight-up Double IPA using a combination of New Zealand hops Riwaka, Nelson, Motueka, and Nectaron for a blend of juiciness and noble hop character, plus Mosaic Incognito for bitterness.

Howling Hops Brew 1000 6.66% NEIPA A ten hop and ten malt NEIPA. The hop character is predictably complex, but clearly defined. Expect more than just the usual grab bag of tropical fruits - there's lungfuls of pine, citrus and floral notes in the aroma, alongside sticky guava, mango, grapefruit and gooseberry on the palate. Floc Brewing Hard Sun 6.8% IPA Loaded up with 20g/l of their favourite hop varieties, Idaho 7 on the hot side with Simcoe T90/Cryo, Citra T90/Cryo alongside Galaxy for extra tropics.

Yonder Brewing & Blending Cyclops 6.5% NEIPA Loaded with enough Southern Hemisphere hops to bring smiles all around when consumed in the spring sunshine. A power-couple combo of Galaxy and Enigma in the dry hop, which bring bright flavours of peach and vanilla to this balanced and easy drinking NEIPA.

13
Anspach & Hobday Eight Candles 6.8% Smoked Brown A simple malt bill, comprising 100% German smoked malt was boiled for 8 hours, then fermented and matured in tank for 8 weeks. A cold, clean Lager fermentation allows all the smoked malt character to shine through, balanced out by a touch of sweetness and leading to a crisp, dry finish. Brew York Keras 4.1% Pale Ale A classic American-style sessional pale ale that uses two old school-favourite US hops; Cascade and Chinook.

Lemon zest adds a tongue-tingling sharpness whilst additional lactose mellows out the tartness for a sweet, rounded finish. Brew York Brew York-E 4.8% Chocolate Milk Stout York has had a long history with chocolate and confection production – the air would smell of chocolate and chocolate dust would cover the city, so this is their dedication to its delicious past.

Big and bold, yet light and supremely drinkable. 16
BREWERS CORNER The Hospitality Sector reacted with howls of process this week, when the Chancellor declined to extend the reduced VAT rate. https://www.morningadvertiser.co.uk/Article/2022/03/24/ pubs-disappointed-with-chancellor-s-spring-statement-2022 This is likely to be the final-straw, for many businesses that were already teetering on the brink. This week it was confirmed that licensed premises would be granted extensions throughout the Queen’s Jubilee celebrations in June. https://www.thedrinksbusiness.com/2022/03/pubs-to-be-allowed-to- stay-open-later-to-celebrate-queens-platinum-jubilee/ Of course, there will be some fantastic Beer Festival options up and down the country that weekend as well. Vinepair has a long-form article about how Incubators and Brand Accelerators have started to become important in Craft Beer in the USA. https://vinepair.com/articles/incubators-hatch-next-great-brewer- ies/ Where the US leads, in Craft Beer, the UK almost always follows... Jeff from Beervana does a great job of summarising why beer should be in cans rather than bottles. https://www.beervanablog.com/beervana/2022/3/23/switching-from- bottles-to-cans-pfriems-case-study Our rule at TWICB is to never drink a hoppy beer packaged in a bottle. 17

PATREON Discover the benefits of membership When we launched This Week in Craft Beer in January 2020, we were blissfully unaware of what lay ahead of us! Considering the obstacles, we have all faced, we are proud of what we managed to accomplish in our first year. However, we have lots more that we want to do in 2022! In order to fund these activities and to enable our Community to get more involved with the creative process at TWICB, we have launched a Patreon Membership Programme. Full details of how you can get involved starting at less than the cost of a half-decent can of beer per month, can be found at patreon.com/thisweekincraftbeer. Don't worry, our weekly Newsletter and Podcast will continue to be FREE FOR EVERYONE! The Patreon Membership offers access to range of brand new TWICB Products and Services. Please check it out and let us know what you think?! www.thisweekincraft.beer/patreon Q. Why are you starting to charge for things that we have enjoyed for free all this year? A. We aren't! The weekly Newsletter and weekly Brewer-interview Podcast will continue to be free to everyone. Patreon will enable us to offer brand-new additional products and services to Members. Q. What's this about Members getting involved with TWICB? A. We have been amazed and delighted with the amount of engagement and feedback we have received during our first year, via social media, email etc. The UK Craft Beer Community is clearly engaged, knowledgeable and sociable! We want to provide a mechanism for bringing the community into our creative process, allowing people to participate in the planning, research, production and delivery of our products. Q. Why do you have to charge for things? A. TWICB is run by just two people: Rob and Steve. Whilst it is undoubtedly a labour of love, it has developed into something that consumes a significant part of our working weeks. Steve works mainly on the Newsletter, where the New Beers Section alone takes many hours per week, to research, collate and format. Rob works mainly on the podcast, where each episode takes several hours to schedule, research, record, edit and promote. Whilst we will continue to invest this time to produce the free products, we think Patreon could be a great way of funding the time and effort that we want to devote to developing new products and services. Q. Apart from your time, what specifically will the Patreon proceeds be used to fund? A. As soon as the COVID-19 situation permits, we want to take the podcast on the road, to record Brewer interviews at their own Taprooms, as well as record live segments at Festivals, Tap-Takeovers and other beery events of note. In order to provide a quality finished audio product, we will need to invest in some decent mobile recording equipment, not to mention the cost of travelling the length and breadth of Britain in the pursuit of great interviews! Q. What is the thought process behind the bundles of Patreon Membership bonuses that you are offering? A. We have tried to come up with bundles that combine some community benefits, exclusive digital products, exclusive physical products, invites to exclusive TWICB events, discounts on TWICB Grand Tours and opportunities to participate in the TWICB creative process. We have tried to price each Membership Level so that each offers outstanding value for money. We have also tried to be mindful of the number of Patreon members that we can realistically include in each bonus activity. (Clearly the invite to participate in the podcast interview or attend the TWICB "Board Meeting" needs to be strictly limited in numbers, or else the bonus would cease to be "exclusive” and would risk disrupting the actual process itself.) Q. Are the Membership Benefits and Levels set in stone? A. Of course not! We are literally making this up as we go along currently! We would love to get your feedback on the Levels, the Benefits, and indeed the very idea of using Patreon in the first place! Please hit us up on IG (@thisweekincraft.beer) or via email rob@thisweekincraft.beer. We confidently expect to need to adjust the Patreon model as we go along, based on feedback. Q. Is this like a Gym membership, where I sign up in January, and then regret it for the rest of the year?! A. Definitely Not! Membership is month-to-month and you can cancel your membership at any time. Only caveat here is that certain Member Benefits (mainly those ones that involve a significant cost for us to provide to you) are only unlocked after three or six months at a certain tier. www.patreon.com/thisweekincraftbeer 47
