Granville Island Brewing is calling all hopheads with the release of its Imperial IPA, local media reported on January, 24.
In this highly-anticipated beer’s debut last year, the online and in-store response was so strong that Granville Island Brewing decided to make it available on a larger scale in 2012. “Imperial IPA is packed with lots of flavour,” says brewmaster Vern Lambourne. “We use 4 varieties of Pacific Northwest hops for bittering, flavour and aroma with notes of marmalade, citrus peel and pine. This brew has an assertive 100 BUs of bitterness that Imperial IPA enthusiasts will love.”
Expect to see the big, bold Imperial IPA on display at the Granville Island Brewing retail store and BC Liquor Stores during its limited release starting January 23. 650ml bottles are available for C$5.90 as well as in kegs in selected pubs and restaurants throughout Vancouver.
