First brewed in 2019 to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the launch of Apollo 11 mission to the moon. Loaded with 8 USA grown hops, this West Coast style session IPA delivers a huge payload of citrus and pine flavours.

The Hop Rocket is a tank used at the Westerham Brewery to hold a huge quantity of whole flower hops. The hops are steeped in hot wort during the brewing process to extract the flavour while preserving the aroma. The wort is then cooled to fermentation temperature. After primary fermentation the beer is double dry hopped.
