Vibrant Forest Brewery

Vibrant Forest Brewery ... We won't tolerate ‘dull’ or ‘boring’, so whether it be from a cask or from a cask we want our beer to excite the palate and stimulate the taste buds.

Vibrant Forest is a small microbrewery located on the edge of The New Forest in Hardley and our passion is to develop, experiment and brew richly flavoured beer full of exceptional character. Beer is incredibly versatile, so it's time to show you an uncompromising approach to flavour. At our brewery taproom you can sample and purchase our beer for drinking at the brewery or to take home and enjoy later. We always aim to have a large range of cans available and a range of keg/draft. When visiting the brewery you may meet the brewer, taste some malt, smell some amazing hops and learn more about how our great beer is made. We actively welcome those who enjoy our beers and want to share the passion.

5.5% Pale Ale

A bit of a sneaky favourite here at Vibrant. Hopped with Citra and Amarillo, Metamorph is designed to sit somewhere between East and West Coast in style.

A soft, oaty malt bill and London Fog yeast bring the smooth, hazy character of the East, while a shedload of bittering hops delivers that punchy West Coast edge.

Soft and full-bodied, with vibrant hop character and a firm, bitter finish.

5.6% Continental style l***r

Vibrant Forest’s take on a traditional Märzen-style l***r.

More robust and malt-forward than many l***r styles, BAUM delivers plenty of biscuit and cracker flavours, with caramel undertones and a light minerality, while still providing the refreshingly light body and effervescence you’d expect from a l***r.

So, whether you have big German-inspired plans or simply fancy a l***r with a little more character, BAUM does the job.

Prost!

50 CAN WARNING

This year’s SUPA PUPA has been one of the best-received batches of b**r we’ve ever done, and we’re now down to the last 50 cans.

Our annual DIPA takes our beloved PUPA and doubles everything up into a massive 8% juice bomb that is scarily drinkable.

Big. Juicy. Dangerously smooth.

It’s quite simply a banger of a b**r.

Once these last cans are gone, that’s SUPA PUPA done for 2026.

GET IT BEFORE IT’S GONE!

// HOPS AND THAT // 🌱 🌳 🍺

Today we did something we’ve never done before in preparation for a brand new brew.

Ryan and Jon headed over to Hukins Hops in the Kent countryside to collect a freshly picked batch of English wet hops to use in a brand new b**r tomorrow.

We got to see the whole process and learns a huge amount about some great English hops.

Thank you to Loughran Brewers Select for the invite today we had a blast.

But……… what b**r do you think we are making ???

// INAUDIBLE // 🌤🍺🕺🌳

For the first time this year (CRAZY!), we finally have this beautiful 5% Hazy Pale Ale back in stock!

Hopped with Talus, Simcoe and Chinook, with a soft mouthfeel and a low level of bitterness, this is secretly one of our absolute favourites.

Very happy to have this one back in the fridge.
