An Indian pale ale with a 4.6 per cent alcohol volume, Substantial Meal is described as a ‘tropical, citrus, hazy, session IPA’ with a ‘pithy orange bitterness’.

It is currently available for pre-order through the Triple Point website, with £1 from each can sold going to FareShare – the UK's largest charity fighting hunger and food waste.

The webpage reads: “Who needs a Substantial Meal?’ Sad to say, we were moping around wishing more of our pub customers served substantial meals, so that we could sell more beer.

“Then it dawned on us that we actually have it pretty good and the people who really need a substantial meal are the children going hungry. So this new brew, our Substantial Meal IPA, is for them. Not literally of course, it's 4.6% ABV! But for every can sold, £1 will go to combat food poverty via Work For Good.”

Triple Point says the money from the sales of the beer will be sent via Work For Good, an online fundraising platform which makes it easy for small businesses to donate to charity.

The Shoreham Street Brewery added that orders will be delivered in the first week of December, just in time for Christmas.
