On October 15, 1777, Lord John Graves Simcoe took command of the Queen's Rangers . It was a well-trained light infantry unit comprising 11 companies of 30 men. The Queen's Rangers saw extensive action during the Philadelphia campaign, including a successful surprise attack (planned and executed by Simcoe) at the Battle of Crooked Billet. The Queen's Rangers still exist today as the Queen's York Rangers, now an armoured reconnaissance regiment of the Canadian Forces reserves. Our Queen's Ranger is a 9% ABV double IPA with over 100 IBU and as many late/dry hops as we could pack in. It reinforces Lord Simcoe's Revenge (our 7% ABV, 65+ IBU IPA) and pays homage to a proud history.
