RateBeer.com -- Correct Bluegrass English IPABluegrass English IPA

Description:
A traditional English style India Pale Ale. IPA gained its name because of its popularity with the British troops in colonial India. Its alcoholic strength and high hopping rates helped it withstand the long ocean voyage from England. Brewed with Maris Otter and caramel malts imported from the UK, imparting a solid sweet malt foundation. Five separate hop additions include Wye Target and Goldings for bitterness and flavor. We then strain the hot unfermented beer through a bed of raw East Kent Goldings hops to add more flavor and aroma. The beer is finished by adding two large doses of EKG post fermentation for added hop aroma. The natural carbonation in this cask, which is the traditional serving method for English beers, provides a smooth mouthfeel and flavor.
