Southern Tier IPA

The India Pale Ale we brew is our version of a brewing legacy. IPA’s name hails from its colonial roots. British soldiers in India didn’t have access to good beer, and all the malty ales they attempted to take on the boat with them would go stale. The addition of a generous amount of hops to their already popular pale ales created a drinkable brew that could better survive the heat and motion of the sailing ships, and a new style was born: ale with a vigorous hop profile, well-balanced malt background, and medium body. At Southern Tier, our IPA is an intrepid ale, triple-hopped on its journey to your glass for a truly aromatic experience.
