The opportunity to create my own recipe and have it on tap at 3 Brasseurs is always an amazing experience. I take the opportunity to brew unique and unusual beers that are either new to me, or as a brewer, represent a technical challenge. This year I brewed a Black IPA, which is officially recognized as a Cascadian Dark Ale. The origin of this style is the West Coast, and the unique style is a hybrid between a Porter and an India Pale Ale. Using 3 different American hops, and by dry hopping, the result is floral, with a light touch of citrus and conifer. I’ve added a small personal touch that’s almost undetectable – rye. It’s a little nod to my family and the artisans in my home town who have cultivated rye for generations. If you like bitter and hoppy brews, this is one for you.
