In a nod to the perpetual battle between t-shirts and raincoats at this time of year, a small microbrewery located behind the Dart Station at Howth Junction has just released a special brew celebrating the eternal perseverance of its namesake.
Hope Beer’s maiden Summer Session IPA comes crammed with tropical fruits, with the addition of spelt and oats resulting in a sensation described by its makers as a “creamier mouth feel”.
The summer brew joins a core range including a fruity IPA, a malty Blonde and a crisp, dry Saison, all brewed and bottled on Dublin’s Northside.
