In days past, many British pubs contained a small, private room called a ‘Snug’, reserved for special clientele. Brewed in honor of the historic Snug Pub at Victoria’s Oak Bay Beach Hotel, this British-style IPA features a flavourful balance of crisp bitterness, delicate hop aroma and malty caramel sweetness. Bold, yet easy to drink, this ‘session’ IPA pays homage to the proud tradition of the public house. An excellent accompaniment to traditional pub fare, cured meats, spicy foods and sharp cheeses such as cheddar or gruyere.

On tap at Salt Spring Inn, pours a a clear copper with a small off-white head. Aroma brings out earthy hops, some fungal notes and bready malt. Flavour is earthy and fungal in the hop department, with a vegetal and herbal quality throughout. Tastes like they don't have a clue what they're doing. Not good.

650 ml bottle. Pours a dark copper color with light head. Aromas of toffee and pine. Flavors are same with a good malt base. Just as advertised - a light IPA. Better than some of the session IPAs from south of the border.
