Tasting Notes
BitterJuicyTropical
One of Nova Scotia’s first craft brewery’s, celebrating their 25th anniversary in 2022 – Garrison Brewing Company located on the Halifax waterfront, follows the rich brewing tradition in Nova Scotia by producing a wide array of flavourful beers for the local market, and nationally. Garrison brews a variety of full flavored, all natural, preservative free ales. Each glass represents a tribute to the art of hand-crafting ales with the finest natural ingredients.
Tasting Notes
This Double IPA has aromas citrus, pineapple, mango and stone fruit that lead into a palate full of juicy tropical fruits. The mouthfeel is medium-full bodied, moderate carbonation and finishes with firm bitterness but not so much to make not want another sip.
Method
Juicy is a Double IPA, and the entire concept of a Double IPA is to showcase as much hop character as possible. So Garrison uses a end-of-boil hop bursting cone machine that cycles the beer through a large container packed with hops to create maximum hop effect without picking up the bitter compounds.
Our Thoughts
This DIPA from Garrison definitely earns the name “Juicy;” despite being incredibly hop forward, the notes of pineapple, mango, and grapefruit are distinct and balance out the strong flavour profile. This beer has been a Garrison staple for years and it consistently delivers a classic DIPA!
