In November we brewed an extra special beer. Called Birkenhop, the 3.9% bitter was made using locally grown Prima Donna hops with all profits going towards local community projects. Volunteers from the Callister Garden Trust in Oxton and Make CIC in Birkenhead and Liverpool grew their own plants and came into the brewery with the freshly picked hops to make a green hop beer. You can watch the full story below (or on Vimeo here: The Hops Project).
