22 Sep Introducing The Amazing Northampton Beer
Hydration is vital after a big race – and while we’d generally recommend water or anything isotonic, if you feel the need for something stronger we’ve got you too!
This year’s The Amazing Northampton Run saw the unveiling of a new, refreshing way to celebrate completing your race, whether it be our half-marathon, three-miler, or relay…
The Amazing Northampton Beer
We joined forces with the iconic Phipps Brewery, who have been brewing beer in Northampton since 1817, to create this incredible new ale, which we are confident will become a feature of future races.
The Amazing Northampton Beer is a soft, refreshing session pale designed to be the perfect post-run pint.
Bursting with juicy tropical and stone fruit flavours from Nectaron hops, it delivers vibrant notes of peach and passionfruit on a smooth, hazy body.
And at just 4% ABV, it’s light, easy-drinking, and endlessly refreshing.
The first pour of the new beer took place on Friday, September 12 at Phipps’ Albion Brewery Bar, the day before the race, with runners enjoying a beer after completing their half-marathon.
This is something truly unique to celebrate The Amazing Northampton Run. We don’t know of another half-marathon that has its own beer and I certainly can’t think of a better way to celebrate finishing a big challenge than with a refreshing cold one!
