About this beer

This is the 30th of 30 labels we have from Henhouse Brewing Company. It is one of 30 amber / red ale labels approved in July 2026. Its label was approved 1 day after it was submitted. The label names one hop, East Kent Goldings. The label carries the Brewers Association independent seal.

The artwork

A rooster with black plumage, red comb, and white chest occupies the top centre of the label within a gold circular emblem bearing the brewery name. Wheat sheaves in tan flank the medallion on a deep red ground with horizontal striping. The beer name appears in large serif capitals with a red-and-white outline on a black rectangular banner below the emblem, with the style—Imperial Red Ale—in smaller gold type beneath. A monochromatic brewery building illustration sits at the base of the circular seal.

From the label

“MJ made this beer for you, you're welcome. MJ, the cold chainiac hisself, the crispiest boi, bearer of the key of the hemnes, in all of his wisdom was all like "You need a malty, delish red ale that reminds you of everything good about the 90s, with a bit of a kick to it". Absolutely correct. No spare parts here, and to be fair, to be fair, if you think differently you're 10-ply. This red ale is made with Best Red X malt, red wheat, East Kent Goldings hops and a burning hatred for nazis.”
