Look for green apple and pear drop notes from the distinctive Kölsch yeast. Named for musician Christa Paffgen under her stage name Nico (of Nico & the Velvet Underground). Read Less

A beer to fit tightly within our ethos at Orbit Beers, paying homage to European brewing heritage and traditions.

Named after the runoff area on vinyl records, with a nod to Seven (named for the 7” single) our Double Brown Stout which we have brewed in previous winters at Orbit.

Dead Wax is our take on a classic London Porter. Based on the late nineteenth-century interpretation of the style. Complex rich malt, with aromas of chocolate, coffee, caramel and malty biscuit.

More chocolate, coffee and black treacle on the palate. Rich full body, robust bitterness and a subtle earthy/lemony hop character combine to create a distinctively dry and drinkable dark ruby coloured beer. Read Less

Tzatziki Sour was inspired by head brewer Paul's double summer holiday to Brussels, Belgium and Symi, Greece.

A mildly tart sour beer emulating the flavours of the classic Greek yoghurt dip.
A clean, vibrant and zingy summer refresher.

Originally brewed by Paul at Mad Hatter, we decided to bring the beer back to life down in South London.

Straw yellow colour, hazy, white foamy head with aromas of cucumber, mint, yoghurt and lemon and lime citrus with light malt character.

Creamy smooth mouthfeel but mildly tart lactic sourness. Light and dry finish with mellow bitterness and soft to medium carbonation. Read Less

To welcome the start of autumn, we got together once again with our friends at Hakata Ramen Bar in Bermondsey to brew a beer tailor-made for their Japanese-inspired menu.

The beer has a distinctive, unique characteristic from Sorachi Ace, a hop variety developed in Japan in the 1970s. Deep red in colour, this hoppy red ale has a malty, caramel base with an abundance of hop character. Sorachi Ace hops provide hints of coconut, dill and a touch of oak, with the Citra hops delivering a hit of grapefruit citrus and a bitter finish.

We adjusted the water profile to produce a brewing liquor high in carbonate and phosphoric acid, with a slight alkaline edge to complement wheat-based ramen noodles. Read Less

In the lead up to our 10th birthday celebrations in July, we've taken a trip down memory lane and are re-releasing a favourite from the Orbit archives!

Named after the iconic '24 Hr Party People' by Happy Mondays, this brew pays homage to the vibrant indie-rave/acid house culture of the 1980s Madchester music scene.

Lower on alcohol (3.3%) but full in body, this malt-forward pilsner is elegant and easy-drinking with a balanced bitterness and a spicy hop character from noble varieties.
