This IPA doesn't fit into a specific category it's a blend of English and American Pale Ale so we took the liberty of calling it a Hoppy Pale Ale!
Alright alright! We admit it, we have a lot of fun making this beer! It was meant to be a series of beers with various blends of hops in each batch. However, the blend of Amarillo and Simcoe hops in batch #3 gained so much popularity that we had to listen to our fans and decided to keep that same blend. Although we have to be honest, we are still playing with it here and there, so noticing a slight variance from batch to batch is quite possible.
Truth is, Amarillo and Simcoe hops are very hard to get which makes this brew much more difficult to keep consistent so some variance might make its way into a bottle due to the lack of supply of certain hops.
Aroma
Moderately high citrus and pine hop aroma accompanied with malty sweetness.
Flavour
Citrus and pine flavours combined with a medium-high bitterness (70 IBU) with a medium sweet malt character. Some residual bitterness in the after-taste that dissipates quickly into a clean finish.
