Is there a more iconic indie beer than Jakehead… this year sees the 11th anniversary of our Supercharged IPA which we humbly believe is considered as one of the beers that helped propel the UK independent beer scene and is now seen as a modern classic.

After the enormous success of NATIONAL JAKEHEAD DAY 2023, we have listened to the cries of ‘WE MISSED OUT… IS THERE ANY OF THAT DEAD STRONG JAKEY LEFT’… and we pondered, discussed, contemplated why just brew IMPERIAL JAKEHEAD twice in 11 years? This chat lasted approximately the time it took to drink half a pint.

With that being said… we are stoked to announce that NATIONAL JAKEHEAD DAY returns fittingly on DECEMBER FRIDAY 13TH… with exclusive first pours of IMPERIAL JAKEHEAD 10.0% happening across the land… what’s the worst that can happen?

If like us, you’ve been waiting all year to see if this momentous day returns, your prays have been answered. Please don’t hang around… this beer (& snake) is WILD.

If you want to get involved… GET IN TOUCH!
