NoDescription:This excellent brew is our flagship beer. It is a heavily hopped pale ale. India Pale Ales originated during the lengthy colonization of India. British servicemen in India expected beer, however, the styles of the time did not survive the long voyage to India. Brewers quickly discovered that hops acted as preservatives in beer. As such, the heavily hopped ales designed to survive the long trips were born – now known as India Pale Ales. This beer has a delicate bitterness and enough alcohol warmth to bring out the massive fruit, pine an citrus flavours from Australian and US hops. One for the progressive hophead.
