There’s lots of good stuff to celebrate this week, with the release of Northern Monk’s 2022 batches of Death Imperial Stout and Glory Triple IPA, as well as Vault City’s new out-there collaborations with S43.

Still, for me, the biggest news this week is something most will overlook…

Cause Northern Monk have mastered the session IPA!

This week, Verdant’s Allen returned, Beak released an exquisite new Pale Ale, and there’s a new 7% Crème Brûlée Stout to check out that’s only £4.50 a can!

The headline this week though?

Some epic new Belgian lambics. That just became a lot more affordable.

This week, we take a look at some lovely hoppy stuff by Azvex, Neon Raptor and, for the first time ever, Basqueland too.

The big beer release this week was the latest Emperor’s imperial stout… but if you’re not into dark beers, don’t panic!

The sour releases this week were sublime. Plus this week saw some lauded hoppy brewers demonstrating just what you can do with truckloads of juicy tropical hops.

Dark beers took a back seat this week as the seasons changed, the sours sparkled and Verdant teamed up with Floc to create a Double IPA people are going mad for.

The hoppy beer releases this week were off the charts! New stuff from Azvex, Verdant and a lovely peachy Pale Ale from Elusive.

Still, this week, I have to start this list with the serious big dog.

It’s new. It’s outrageous. And it’s from from New York’s Other Half…

Think there’s no such thing as an Easter egg beer?

Read on. These are the best new beers out this week.

New-ish breweries like Azvex, Baron, Floc & Holy Goat all featured in this week’s best new beer releases. Are the old guard in trouble?!

Let’s just say they should be on their toes.
