Voyager India Pale Ale: A Hop-Forward Journey Crafted by the skilled brewers at Renaissance Brewing, the Voyager India Pale Ale is a bold and satisfying IPA that pays homage to the rich history of this iconic beer style. Designed to be served on beer engines, this ale is a testament to the bold and hoppy ales of old that were once exported across the British Empire. With an alcohol content of 6.0%, this IPA delivers a rich and malty base, complemented by an emphatic hop bite. The brewers have carefully selected a blend of pale ale malt from Canterbury and European specialty malts to create a solid foundation, upon which they have layered a generous hop profile. The bitterness is provided by two distinct New Zealand hop varieties, while the floral and spicy notes come from a touch of Fuggles hops, a nod to the IPA's British origins, and the New Zealand-bred Riwaka hops. The result is a harmonious balance of malt and hops, creating a satisfying and complex drinking experience. Whether enjoyed on a beer engine or as a cask or bottle-conditioned ale, the Voyager IPA is a testament to the art of brewing and the enduring appeal of this iconic beer style.
