Our Story
Seven days the priests of Joshua marched, parading the Ark of the Covenant around Jericho with trumpets blaring. On the seventh day the army of Joshua crushed the walls of Jericho with a thunderous shout and, invigorated by the cry, pillaged the city. This showcase of hops in Jericho illustrates the bitterness necessary for IPA’s without losing the mellifluous qualities that make great beers greater. With just a taste of our Imperial IPA all desire for other ales will crumble, vanquished by this Valiant Brew.

Tasting Notes
Craft breweries love to make beers that stand out amongst their rivalry. One way this is accomplished is by the use of hops which adds an incredible array of flavors and aromas. Our Imperial IPA takes a stand and pushes the boundaries even further by delicately balancing the true nature of hops. Get ready for an incredible experience, our Imperial IPA is filled, literally with hops in all aspects of the brewing process. However with a focus attributing to flavors and aromas of that reminiscent to Floral, Citrus, we allow enough balance to make such a big beer drinkable. The approachable aroma of orange, tangerine and citrus flower bouquet first heightens the senses. Allowing the hop flavor to develop, the malt profile allows minor support to the pallet with just enough malty sweetness. The effects of bittering will be the true treat of this beer. With our efforts focused on a unique bittering profile, the carefully selected polish hops helps develop a long but elegant bittering profile that last a couple of minutes. Truly a remarkable beer that can be enjoy by everyone.
