Wolf Of The Willows Homage IPA

TASTING NOTES

Sit down and savour with a meal or on its own, this solid IPA is indulgent and refreshingly ‘big’ – for those moments when you want to step it up a bit. Their name sake, Lupus Salictarius, pays homage to the humble hop, so only fitting that their heavy hop hitting IPA does as well. Paying homage to their love of West Coast India Pale Ales, this IPA bursts with resinous, tropical hops, a solid malt backbone and a firm bitterness.

DID YOU KNOW?

Scotty’s love of brewing started young, helping his dad brew homemade ginger beer on his family’s property in rural Victoria. Years later, time spent as a ski bum in Colorado gave Scotty an introduction to the world of American craft brewing. This, he says, was followed by many years of perfecting beer recipes, growing hops on the family farm and of course, plenty of market research.
