Windsor & Eton launch a new beer

WINDSOR & ETON LAUNCH CAPITAL LAGER: LONDON JUST GOT EVEN GREATER.

Windsor & Eton Brewery have launched their second lager - CAPITAL - a superb 4% Dry Hopped Lager.

CAPITAL celebrates the diversity of the capital city with three contemporary London characters featured on the lens.

Co-Founder Will Calvert explains:

“We chose three characters to reflect some of the talent and energy of London – busker, barber and cyclist. We’re giving landlords and bar managers the choice as to which design they want in their bar”.

As for the beer itself, it promises to be a treat as Master Brewer and Co-Founder Paddy Johnson explains:

“We use two newer hops in CAPITAL – Lemondrop from the US and Mandarina Bavaria from Germany. Both have great aroma and together create a zesty, refreshing lager with real character. From the secret trial brew we ran in a handful of selected pubs, we really think we’ve created a craft lager that will appeal to lovers of classic lagers as well as fans of light English craft beers”

CAPITAL is being launched simultaneously in London and Windsor this Thursday evening, 19th July at the Windsor & Eton Brewery bar in Duke Street and the Windsor Castle pub at Regents Park.

CAPITAL follows the success of Windsor & Eton’s REPUBLIKA, a 4.8% pilsner lager that has won 10 major national and international awards including Silvers at the 2014 Dublin Craft Beer Festival and the 2016 SIBA National Finals as well as SIBA Silver and Gold medals in bottle.
