Excellent pale ale. Malty, hoppy and refreshing.

Person holding a bottle of Badger Hopping Hare in a conservatory

No bitter aftertaste, just a pleasant, mild citrus flavor. It’s so well-balanced that even the foam left at the bottom of the glass is sweet rather than bitter. A wonderfully refreshing brew.

FAQs

Questions brewing? You'll find plenty of helpful answers in our FAQs.

We believe Hopping Hare is suitable for vegetarians and vegans, as no animal-derived ingredients are intentionally used in the brewing process. However, we are not certified by a vegan society and do not routinely test to verify vegan status, so we cannot make an official vegan claim.

At present, we are unable to confirm whether the beer is gluten-free. As gluten is a regulated allergen, confirming a gluten-free claim requires laboratory testing of every batch. While we are exploring options to introduce this capability in the future, we cannot currently guarantee or validate the gluten content.

With bright citrus notes and plenty of punch, this pale ale is right at home alongside spring lamb or a nut roast... a pairing that more than holds its own.

Our bottled ales are best enjoyed lightly chilled, around 10-14°C. Serving Hopping Hare too cold can mask some of the flavours, while a slightly warmer temperature helps bring out its full character.

This punchy pale ale is brewed throughout the year and remains available online and in selected stores.

Hopping Hare occasionally makes a guest appearance on cask in our Hall & Woodhouse pubs as part of our seasonal beer line-up. Because availability is limited and varies throughout the year, we recommend checking with your local pub before visiting if you're hoping to find it on the bar.
