We love trying new beer styles around here, so we’re very excited to introduce Cold Call — our first Cold IPA! A Cold IPA is an emerging style that aims to achieve a crispier IPA. Even though it’s called an India Pale Ale, it’s actually a (hopped up) lager, because it’s been fermented with lager yeast. The base beer is an American adjunct lager using corn, which was matured in tank at just above the freezing point. To give it those IPA vibes, we generously dry-hopped with Idaho 7, Simcoe and Hallertau Blanc.
The result is a bright, hop-forward, clean and crisp beer that’ll have you ready for patio season. You’ll pick up aromas of dank, resinous pine, bright citrus and herbs, with flavours of peach, mango, ripe orange and grapefruit rind. Cold Call clocks in at 6.8% ABV, but you’d never know it. It’s sneaky, crispy and smooth and we think you’re all gonna love it!

Cold IPA. 12 ounce can from brewery.
Slightly hazy gold with finger of bubbly white head.
Aroma is a bit grassy, slightly grainy, citrus, tropical fruit, melon and a touch floral.
Tastes of slightly sweet grainy malt, grapefruit, piney resin, and a moderately sharp/crisp bitterness.
Light end of medium mouthfeel - subdued carbonation with a crisp slightly bitter finish.
