Tasting Notes

Founded in 2017, Willibald is a first-generation farm distillery & brewery located outside of Cambridge in Ayr, Ontario. On the farm they strive to create progressive, high quality products that respect tradition but aren’t bound by it. They also have a restaurant on the farm serving up seasonally focused food and beverages all year round.
Tasting Notes
Notes of peach-mango lemonade, and candied orange peel, mingle with sweet fruit, lime zest and indistinct floral notes. The palate is very juicy, and packed with new-world hop flavour that leads into a strong finish, with firm bitterness and a clean finish.
Method
Emphasising hop aroma and flavour without bracing bitterness, the New England IPA leans heavily on late and dry hopping techniques to deliver a bursting juicy, tropical hop experience. The skillful balance of technique and ingredient selection, often including the addition of wheat or oats, lends an alluring haze to this popular take on the American IPA.
Eureka IPA is brewed with Luminosa and Freestyle Peacharine hops. These are both newer hop varieties that deliver exceptionally bright notes of stone fruits and florals but not a lot of the herbal/dank aromas associated with West Coast American hops.
