Leia IPA, named after one of our favourite 4 legged taproom regulars! If you've been in our taproom you've likely seen Leia roaming around saying hello to people. She's just the absolute sweetest girl!
We brewed this one using Bere barley and hopped heavily with Hallertau Blanc and Nelson Sauvin. Tasty little combo!

440ml can. Clear golden with a white head. Aroma is quite vinous, grapes, white wine. Taste is similar, grape, white wine, mild gooseberry, mild tropical fruits, light-moderate bitterness. Medium bodied, relatively low carbonation. A tad restrained perhaps but a very nice IPA, easy going.

Thin beige head on a finely carbonated unclear golden coloured body.
Big juicy aroma with midget gems & stone fruit.
Medium bodied, soft over the tongue with a lightly carbonated back.
Stone fruit, pine, resinous & hopped up tastes with a malt backbone.
Good stuff.
