COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
IPA stands for India Pale Ale and ours is an American version of the classic style. IPA’s namesake lies in its colonial roots. British soldiers on their way to India dark a lot of beer, but found it would go stale on the long voyages. Meanwhile, brewers knew that by adding more hops, the beer would stay fresh. Voila! A new style was born and it is one we are proud to brew. Southern Tier IPA is a triple-hopped on its journey to your glass for a fully aromatic experience.

grandgenie (259) - gatineau, Quebec, CANADA - JAN 21, 2009
Acheté à la LCBO sur king-edward, mais l’étiquette indique 6% et non 6.5%. Dégusté dans un verre tulipe à 4 degré celcius. Bière d’apparence or ambré avec une mince effervescence et un col de mousse blanche restant bien collé au verre. Odeur d’houblon frais, d’agrumes, de résines, de poivres et de notes herbacées légèrement caramélisé. Un goût de zeste d’orange, évidemment d’houblon et de caramel très léger. En bouche elle offre une saveur qui dure, dure et dure.

Shared with Pyrozoid. Clear golden poor with a tiny off white head with some lacing. Aromas are of predominent citrus hops, toffee, pine, grapefruit zest and some herbal notes. Very nice zestiness coupled with an amazingly well balanced bitterness. Very fresh flavors... Overall an amazing IPA experience.

LadySusan (601) - Ste-Therese, Quebec, CANADA - DEC 28, 2008
12 oz. bottle at Beer Bistro. The color is amber with a light beige head. The aroma and taste is very hoppy. Also in the taste is some citrus fruits and some sweetness. The finish is the perfect bitter finish of a great I.P.A.

Bottle. A little fresher this the current picture here. Pours a nice golden color with a medium white head. Really nice grapefruit smell. Flavors are grapefruit and pine. Really fresh and crisp. Clean refreshing mouth.
