Fuller, Smith & Turner PLC (Fuller’s), the London brewer and premium pub company, has just launched London Pride Unfiltered, which it says is its biggest beer launch in a generation, at the four-day long Craft Beer Rising event in the former Truman Brewery in London’s East End which took place this weekend.

The event started with a trade-only day on February 22nd,and opened to the public from February 23rd until February 25th. Fulham-based agency marketing agency ignis created an activation space to bring the new product and the Fuller’s brand to life for the event.

London Pride Unfiltered is a 4.1% unfiltered variant of one of the UK’s favourite beers and comes in 30 litre kegs, which Fullers says will open the brand up to a new consumer and a new drinking occasion.

ignis Executive Creative Director, Nick Peters, says: “Craft Beer Rising provides a fantastic opportunity to introduce the brand to a new audience, as well as those well versed in London Pride cask. When it came to designing the space, it was important to ensure that it showcased ‘Unfiltered’, not just as a process, but as a unique attitude, rooted in contemporary London.”

The beer is brewed true to London Pride’s original recipe, but is then dry hopped with Target Hops for added character and flavour. With the goal of making the beer as natural as possible, the beer is centrifuged, but not filtered or pasteurised, to retain taste, complexity and Fuller’s character. The result, according to Fuller’s, is a hazy, hoppy, tasty beer in a keg, served at between 4° and 6° degrees, which delivers quality and flavour.

Fullers Beer Company managing director Simon Dodd observes: “The London Pride brand name has heritage and authenticity and we now feel the time has come to leverage these qualities and bring London Pride to a more contemporary environment. Our excellent brewing team has taken the same great recipe and, by dry hopping the beer at the end, created a beer, in keg, that has balance, flavour and is true to the character of any Fullers beer.”
