Beers in this year’s Collabageddon series of releases have been announced. They will be released on Friday, 15th November.
Collabageddon was founded by Elusive Brewing in 2017 and evolved from an idea that came about during a drinking session with Vibrant Forest team members.
“The idea is a simple one,” said an Elusive blog. “We bring together some great breweries (both old hands and new kids on the block) to brew a range of diverse beers that we launch all around the UK on the same night.
“Given the project is built around the idea of being collaborative, sharing, and learning, we created pairings to bring together two breweries per beer who usually brew quite different styles to each other, diversity being a key driver.”
