Lining up a cheeky takeaway this weekend? Try pairing spicy food with JHB - it'll accentuate the natural sweetness, have enough power to complement those spices and the bitterness will cut through the richness.

Thinking about seasonals, it's not long until Fiend is released upon the world. We know that there are plenty of you who look forward to our dark releases and Fiend is an absolute belter.

The green hops have been picked and rushed back to the brewery ready for this year's edition of HopWalk - last year we used Challenger and this year we've gone with British hop Ernest. This is available for pre-order and will be released in a few weeks.

We have another seven glorious days of Cask Ale Week left, celebrating the great British cask. Have you been doing your bit and raising a perfectly conditioned pint?

Cheers everyone! This is delicious, just what you'd expect from @thornbridge.bsky.social & @oakhamales.bsky.social teaming up to brew on the Union. Pale Ale heaven here 🍻

It’s Le Kick-Ouef at the Alex’ in Kettering. Everyone’s on the Scarlett Macaw… @oakhamales.bsky.social #WRWC2025

Found it in London! ☺️

We're seeing a lot of Oktoberfest celebrations happening around the country, so it would be rude of us not to join in the fun. Tempest, our cask aged fest beer is available now!

A little something for the weekend. Citra has been brewed since 2009. It's the UK's original single hop Citra beer, and i picked up Silver in the 2025 CAMRA East Anglia/ East Central Champion Beer of Britain Awards, Session Pale, Blond and Golden Ales category.

Wait a hop-picking minute! Yes, hop picking season is upon us and we just wanted to give a shout out to our wonderful friends at Charles Faram who are in their busiest part of the year. Remember to take lots of breaks and stay hydrated, Team!

There are a limited number of American Pale cases available on our webshop. Swoop in and pick yours up before it's too late!

Well, Scarlet Macaw is all sold out (although you'll probably still find it on the bar) so it's time to start looking forward to our October seasonal specials. Yes, 3 Witches is back. Popular since 2005, enjoy bewitching orange aromas and spellbinding soft fruit notes.

We're delighted that Scarlet Macaw will be making an appearance at the Nethergate Oktoberfest in Suffolk on Thursday 25th to Sunday 28th September. Get the low down on their website. nethergate.co.uk/oktoberfest-...

#BskyBeer from our Friends @oakhamales.bsky.social #TitanicBrewery Black IPA 🍻

Spoons Two for £6 @oakhamales.bsky.social unfiltered Citra IPA 4.6% #BskyBeer

Citra O’Clock in the Cross House Tewkesbury… @oakhamales.bsky.social #BSkyBeer #Pubs

First #BskyBeer via @thornbridge.bsky.social and @oakhamales.bsky.social . "American Pale" from The Union. Another great collaboration, once again benefitting from The Union kit which always adds a rounded smoothness. Lovely drop, making me think of Belgian beers almost as much as American pales.

Meanwhile good to see another bottle conditioned beer brewed on a rescued part of the old Burton Union system. Collab between @thornbridge.bsky.social & @oakhamales.bsky.social

Come and try this great new beer at this month's St Albans Beer & Cider Festival! We open our doors on Wednesday 24th September...

Citra O’Clock seems to come round earlier each day! @oakhamales.bsky.social Citra at the Sandford Park Alehouse, Cheltenham. #BSkyBeer #Pubs

Not much pub action this week, but this collaboration on the Union set from Thornbridge @oakhamales.bsky.social is excellent

The collaborations have been strong of late. But which ones have you been able to find at your local?

Cask aged US IPA, Urban, is available now. Mega-flavourful with fruity orange, pineapple, strawberry and melon characters, spice, earthy grass and pine notes and a clean grapefruit bitterness.

Getting Friday-ready by planning a pint of Citra later. How about you?

Now is the time of Scarlet Macaw's return. Has anyone captured one in the wild yet?

Have you ever wanted to join Team Oakham? Now could be your chance!

Good times at Peterborough Beer Festival.

After a garden tidy up, sat down with an @oakhamales.bsky.social Citra Devil (half Citra, half Green Devil) to read the Autumn ed of @camraofficial.bsky.social BEER - articles by @rogerprotz.bsky.social @davidjesudason.bsky.social @morrighani.bsky.social @jeffevanswriter.bsky.social & others

Enjoying an intriguingly tasty Maelstrom Cask Aged IPA from @oakhamales.bsky.social at the Guildford Arms #Edinburgh 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿, while admiring the magnificent ceiling #BskyBeer

@oakhamales.bsky.social Citra on draught, laptop to write, and live music all day. This is how to Sunday.

Same inputs different outcome. This time it's an @oakhamales.bsky.social Citra Session IPA #zesty #hoppy #citrus Which is best ? Only one way to decide... #fight #harryhill #bskybeer

Sunday afternoon pints, done the Oakham way.

We've got four keg beers available right now, including Hoodlum, our delicious 4.2% pale ale. Take a look at the website for more information.

Not all heroes wear capes, but a lot of them do wear imposing black gloves, for some reason.

Green Devil IPA has been winning major awards for over 10 years now but even by its own standards late August was fantastically successful for our famous flagship. “Beer of the Festival” at Peterborough, Gold IPA for SIBA East and Gold IPA at the 2025 CAMRA East Anglia/East Central Awards!

Black IPA anyone #BskyBeer 😲

Hop Noir is a very special collaboration, between ourselves and England’s largest brewer of stouts and porters, Titanic Brewery. This Black IPA features a lineup of NZ hops; Taiheke, Waimea and Green Bullet. Expect heady hop flavours with sweet roasty undertones on the finish.

Autumn has arrived and on the bar we have Citra from @OakhamAles.bsky.social A Citra hopped session IPA, light gold in colour, bursting with citrus & tropical hop flavours & sensationally refreshing. ABV 4.2% available now @VernonArmsL2.bsky.social (Guest ales subject to change)

Hello September, and hello to Laser Bolt - a brand new single hop beer brewed with Jester®, a UK grown hop with distinctive New World style hop aromas and flavours.

A fantastic write up from Sam and some very kind words about our beer.

It was a wonderful surprise to see @oakhamales.bsky.social Citra in the Victoria Inn, Colchester yesterday ... shame they didn't have a pump clip! Oh, it was on top form!

It's the last day of the Oakham Ales v Thornbridge beer festival at the Keyworth Tavern in Nottingham. It started with 10 guest ales from our two breweries, but a couple have fallen since Thursday!

We're so happy that Inferno picked up Silver in the Cask Session Pale Ale category in the SIBA East awards last week!

Perhaps a pint of our multi-award winning IPA, Green Devil, this weekend?

Maelstrom features a trio of the finest New Zealand sourced hop varieties. Expect a whirlpool of citrus and turbulent tropical fruit flavours in this rich, full bodied Cask Aged IPA - available to order now.

Clean them, stack them, rack them. The long lives of our beloved casks is quite a wonder, with many lasting for decades, bringing Oakham Ales to your local.

After all the excitement of award wins and beer festivals, it's back to the serious business of brewing in Peterborough this week!

Coming in September, a new seasonal and an old friend. Scarlet Macaw is brewed with two of our favourite hops, Amarillo® for its spicy, fruity character and the powerful Summit™. We're taking orders now on [email protected].

The relentless march of success for Green Devil continues. It picked up Gold award in the IPAs category of the 2025 East Anglia/East Central awards for Champion Beer of Britain at the East Anglian Beer & Cider Festival in Bury St Edmunds last week.

What's that on the right there? An old favourite is making a return in September...
