KVB Monthly Beer Box
JUL 26 The Summer IPA Box
The Summer IPA Box
Four breweries. Six IPAs.
Kent has a claim almost no other part of Britain can make. This is hop country, proper hop country, the kind that gave English brewing its East Kent Goldings and Fuggles. This summer's box puts that history front and centre, with six IPAs from four of the county's best breweries, sourced, tasted, and boxed by us.
No filler. Just the best beer Kent is making right now.
What's In July's Box
Fridge King — Time & Tide Brewing, Deal | IPA, 5%
The anchor of the box. Mosaic, Ekuanot and Nelson Sauvin hops give it a grassy, grapefruit-led character with real depth. Brewed with New England yeast for extra body, this is the one to come back to.
Urban Goose — Time & Tide Brewing, Deal | Session IPA, 4.6%
Outrageously hoppy for something this sessionable. Same hop bill as Fridge King, lighter touch. Built for a long afternoon.
Whisper — Floc., Canterbury | Hazy Pale Ale, 5%
Floc. are one of the most exciting names in craft beer in the South East right now, and Whisper is where to start. Citra-led, soft, tropical, and dangerously easy to drink.
Passing Cloud — Floc., Canterbury | DDH IPA, 6%
Galaxy is a hop Floc. fell out with for a while. Too loud, too abrasive for the soft, juicy profile they’ve built their name on. Then a particularly good lot came in and reminded them why everyone loved it in the first place. Passing Cloud is the result: a DDH IPA brewed with a generous dose of Citra and Mosaic doing what they always do — mango, citrus, berry. with Galaxy introduced in careful measure for a tropical explosion on the finish that neither of the other two could quite manage alone. Soft, hazy, 6%. Save it for last.
Viceroy — Westerham Brewery, Westerham | English IPA, 5%
Brewed using 100% Kent-grown hops, fermented with Westerham's own heritage yeast strain — the same one used at the original Black Eagle Brewery before it closed in 1965. If you want to taste what Kent hops actually taste like, start here.
Curious Session IPA — Curious Brewery, Ashford | Session IPA, 4.5%
Triple-hopped with Goldings, Chinook and Cascade, from the 2019 UK Brewer of the Year. Zesty, balanced, the easiest drinking beer in the box.
Why These Four Breweries?
We didn't pick these breweries because they were easy to get hold of. We picked them because, between them, they cover everything good happening in Kent IPA right now: Time & Tide's modern, juice-forward house style; Floc.'s cult status among hazy and DDH drinkers; Westerham's unmatched heritage and 100% Kent hop sourcing; and Curious's polish and pedigree.

Supporting the rural economy since 2006.
Kent Veg Box was created to support local farmers and make it easier to eat seasonally. We work directly with growers across Kent, paying fairly and sourcing produce at its best. Every box reflects what’s truly in season, not what’s been stored or shipped long distances. Simple, honest food from people you can trust.
- We actually support our farmers
- Seasonal veg, every delivery
- Always from Kent, a lower food footprint.
With each box, you make a real impact
Paying Farmers Better
By working directly with farmers, we pay a fairier price - no exclusivity, no unfair contracts, just better prices for the farmers who grow your food.
Reduction in Food Miles
Transportation of produce is the main contribution factor to the produce's total emissions. We shorten this journey considerably and let you know how many food miles from the farms each week.
Embracing all veg
We embrace all veg, wonky and surplus. All seasonal, all fresh, all good.
Investing in new growers
We are able to commit to a new grower for the long term. We can encourage small-scale farming by commiting to buy what they produce, meaning they can plant with a guranteed buyer and price.
