Propeller Brewing IPA has just arrived at Hillside Liquor Store! This was a one-time buy from one of Nova Scotia's favourite breweries, as it is just a seasonal brew.
The Propeller IPA won gold medals in 2006 and 2007 at the World Beer Championships in Chicago.
India Pale Ales were originally created to withstand the long sea voyage between England and India, and needed to be higher in alcohol and hops to withstand the journey. Propeller's version remains true to the original, with 6.5% alcohol and is bracing, bitter and full-bodied. IPA is best enjoyed at room temperature which helps to balance the hop and malt flavour with the bitterness prevalent in the IPA.
Propeller uses two-row barley from Saskatchewan (as well as other specialty malts from Europe), the freshest purest water and a special yeast which is stored at Dalhousie University. There is no preservatives, no additives and no pasteurization- just a few ingredients and careful tending.
