Franciscan Well Chieftain IPA is a hugely popular IPA, and Franciscan Well’s answer to Ireland’s growing demand for IPA style beers. IPA’s are traditionally high hopped to deliver intense bitterness that lingers on the palate which usually limits what you can drink or taste after it.
With Chieftain IPA, Shane wants everything an IPA has to deliver, but he wants you to be able to enjoy another beer after it. Chieftain IPA is a great stepping stone into the land of big and bitter.

[On tap at the Golden Retriever, Bracknell.] A bright copper coloured pour with a tight white head; weak piney aroma; sweet malty taste with a light bitterness. Lacking any real bite.

Keg at The Gate, Northwood. An amber coloured pour with a medium off white head on top. Malty, citrus, caramel aroma and taste. Probably the best beer available in this very old pub.
