Allergen Information

Hop Back Brewery provides detailed allergen information for its real ales, ensuring transparency for consumers. The core ingredients in their beers include malted barley, malted wheat, and oats, all of which are common allergens.

These ingredients are used across their core and seasonal beer selections, including popular ales such as Summer Lightning, GFB, Crop Circle, Citra, Fugglestone, and Entire Stout.For those with specific dietary concerns, Hop Back Brewery notes that Entire Stout is suitable for vegans, while other beers may contain ingredients derived from animals, such as isinglass finings (commonly used for clarification in cask ales). Additionally, beers like Taiphoon and Thunderstorm contain additional flavouring agents such as coriander and lemongrass, which may be relevant for those with sensitivities.Their seasonal offerings also follow the same allergen profile, featuring barley, wheat, and oats, but some may have additional flavor infusions, such as Ginger Stout, which includes ginger.

If you have any dietary restrictions, it’s always advisable to check the latest allergen information directly on their website or contact the brewery for specific details.

Hop Back Brewery is committed to providing clear allergen information for all its real ales. Alongside barley, wheat, and oats, some beers contain spices and botanicals, such as coriander and lemongrass in Taiphoon, and ginger in Ginger Stout. Those with gluten intolerances should be aware that all their beers contain gluten, as they are made from malted grains.

While most of their ales are clarified with isinglass finings, making them unsuitable for vegans, Entire Stout is a vegan-friendly exception. Their bottled beers may have different allergen considerations than cask ales, so checking product labels is recommended.
