India Pale Ale

Brewmaster Greg on India Pale Ale



Brewmasters Notes:
Our IPA recalls a time when ales shipped from England to India were highly hopped to preserve their distinct taste during the long journey. The result is a hop lover’s dream with a fruity aroma, set off by a dry malt middle, and long hop finish.
