E-Malt.com News article: Canada, BC: Salt Spring Island Ales releases three new beers

It’s been a busy fall for Salt Spring Island Ales, with a trio of new beers released in the last few weeks, and more to follow soon, Canadian Beer News reported on November, 6.

The three beers available now include: Snug Pub-Style India Pale Ale, a British-style IPA brewed in honour of the historic Snug Pub at Victoria’s Oak Bay Beach Hotel; Whale Tale Estate Hopped Amber Ale, an amber-coloured ‘Salt Spring Style’ Altbier and Spring Fever Gruit Ancient Ale, developed with the help of Salt Spring Island’s Wild Seed School of Herbal Studies, based on an ancient recipe and made without hops.

All three beers are available now in 650 ml bottles at select liquor stores in British Columbia.

Coming later this month from the brewery will be the return of the popular Fireside Winter Ale, followed in the new year by a Winter Gruit and two more seasonals to be announced.
