More About Elusive Brewing Lollypop Pale Ale

Solero & Orange Zest Pale

 

With Lollypop we used Hopsteiner Solero Salvo in the whirlpool with lots and lots of orange zest. We then dry hopped the beer with some lovely orangey Amarillo hops to layer in more orangeyness. Did we mention orange? No? Well, orange!

Meet the Producer, Elusive Brewing

Elusive Brewing

Style: Brewery

Elusive Brewing has built a reputation by taking classic beer styles, particularly hop-forward American-inspired ones, and polishing them to an almost obsessive level. Based in Berkshire, the brewery sits firmly in that sweet spot between modern craft experimentation and proper traditional brewing skill, producing beers that feel clever and contemporary without disappearing completely into gimmick territory.

West Coast IPA is very much the spiritual heart of Elusive. The brewery’s flagship Oregon Trail became hugely respected among UK craft beer fans for delivering proper bitterness, crisp malt character and bright resinous hops at a time when hazy juice bombs were swallowing the beer world whole. While plenty of breweries chased softer, sweeter New England styles, Elusive kept flying the flag for clean, bitter and beautifully balanced IPA. A brave decision honestly, considering modern craft beer occasionally behaves like bitterness personally offended it.

Alongside the hop-heavy stuff, Elusive produces everything from lagers and porters to collaborative specials and seasonal releases, all carrying the same focus on balance and drinkability. The beers feel carefully engineered without becoming soulless, with proper technical brewing skill sitting underneath every release. Even the more experimental beers stay grounded in solid brewing fundamentals rather than chaos for chaos’ sake.

Gaming culture and nostalgic references also run heavily through the brewery’s identity, giving the branding a playful personality without overdoing it. There’s a lot of retro arcade energy floating around the place, which fits surprisingly well with the brewery’s slightly nerdy attention to detail.
