Theakston and Equinox unveil Hopbucha, an alcohol-free collaboration
It’s an alcohol-free brew that blends Britain’s brewing heritage with the live cultures of kombucha. Hopbucha is fermented with Equinox’s SCOBY and delivers the gut-friendly live cultures and mouthfeel of authentic kombucha, while retaining the refreshment and drinkability of a Theakston ale. The product won a Great Taste Award in July from The Guild of Fine Food. Equinox managing director Andy Braithwaite said the project reflects respect for Theakston’s skill and Yorkshire’s brewing culture and that the collaboration brings together the best of both brewing worlds after starting as a playful experiment. Theakston Brewery managing director Richard Bradbury said they are thrilled to work with Equinox and see Hopbucha as a genuine result of their shared passion for fermented flavours, aimed at adults in a growing no- and low-alcohol category.
