Hops in Blankets – 2025 Release

Bright · Juicy · Unmistakably Refreshing

Back by popular demand, Hops in Blankets returns for 2025 — unchanged, because you loved it just as it was. Our most talked-about Small Batch Brew of 2024 is once again here to bring a burst of brightness to the colder months.

This Extra Pale Ale (4.5%) is golden, lively, and full of flavour. Brewed with Galaxy and Topaz hops from Australia, it delivers punchy notes of stone fruit, citrus, and passion fruit, with a clean, refreshing finish that lifts the palate. Smooth, juicy, and effortlessly drinkable — a welcome touch of sunshine in winter.

Brewed in small batches here in Terrick using malted barley, wheat and oats, Hops in Blankets showcases the creativity and balance that define our Small Batch Brew series. Limited in quantity and highly anticipated, it’s a Seasonal Special worth seeking out.
