By Bristol24/7  Wednesday Mar 25, 2026

Bristol-based independent brewery Wiper and True is marking a decade of its flagship pale ale, Kaleidoscope, with a city-wide “Birthday Safari” spanning 55 venues across Bristol.

Running until April 30, the interactive trail invites beer lovers to explore the city’s pubs, bars, restaurants, and independent shops.

Special Kaleidoscope posters at participating venues feature bespoke QR codes, which visitors can scan to unlock exclusive, limited-edition birthday treats.

EatDrink24/7 Launch Party is back on July 8 2026!
Exclusive collabs from Bristol’s favourite food vendors, available for one night only. Be first to grab your free copy of the EatDrink24/7 guide – plus every ticket comes with a free limited-edition beer can.

Participants who visit at least eight venues and complete the trail can reach the safari finish, collecting rewards along the way while discovering some of Bristol’s best-loved hospitality spots.

Bristol-based independent brewery Wiper and True is marking a decade of its flagship pale ale, Kaleidoscope

Kaleidoscope, first brewed ten years ago as an ever-evolving pale ale with changing hop combinations, has become one of Wiper and True’s most recognisable beers, now featuring a signature blend of Citra, Simcoe and Mosaic hops.

To celebrate the milestone, Wiper and True has also launched two new limited-edition beers:

  • Kaleidoscope Bright (4.2% Lager) – A crisp, clear lager showcasing citrus and tropical fruit flavours with a refreshing finish.
  • Kaleidoscope Twist (5.0% Fruited Pale Ale) – A hazy, fruit-forward pale ale bursting with citrus and tropical notes, finished with a juicy mango twist.

With prizes to unlock, new beers to enjoy, and dozens of venues to explore, the Kaleidoscope Birthday Safari offers a fun, interactive way to experience Bristol’s thriving beer scene.

Keep an eye out for Kaleidoscope posters across the city, start scanning and join Wiper and True in raising a glass to ten years of their iconic pale ale.
