India Pale Ale

Columbus dry-hops added directly to the open fermenter uniquely characterize our IPA with an intensely robust pine-like floral aroma and resinous hop flavor. A pronounced and clinging hop bitterness is balanced by a medium-bodied, lightly caramel and toasted   malt character with a nutty finish.

Our India Pale Ale was the highest ranked American made IPA in the 1998 World Beer Championship, with a Gold Medal winning score of 92, second only to Whitbread of England with a score of 93.

"Yellow amber. Medium bodied. Mild bitterness. Highly hopped. Balanced malt. Resinous, citrus oil aromas. Rich caramel rush is complemented by a full floral hop component that is remarkable not bitter. Finishes with a lingering malt sweetness. Hops flavors are all on the attack."
