Chorus. A new category of beer

Chorus is a pioneering Fine English Sparkling Beer, imagined and brewed in the New Forest by the Baynham family, founders of PIG BEER Brewery. At 12% ABV, Chorus is a genuinely new expression of what beer can be: fresh orchard fruit, fine bubbles and a delicate biscuity finish. Sparkling, complex, with all the character of fine wine. Available in 750 ml bottles, with 375 ml for the on-trade.

IN THEIR WORDS

What the judges and the press said.

A remarkable taste experience that could easily replace a sparkling wine whilst retaining its own generous and rewarding, intriguing character.
Great Taste 2026 judges, Guild of Fine Food
The flavour hits wonderfully somewhere between beer and champagne.
Great Taste 2026 judges, Guild of Fine Food
We've had an early sample, and it certainly lives up to its celebratory billing.
Steve May, The Luxe Review
We think it's a great alternative to spumante and their ilk.
