VICTORIA, BC – Vancouver Island Brewery has announced the launch of a new summer seasonal brand.
Killer White IPA is described as follows:
Killer White IPA is a fragrant and bitter wheat ale. This slightly cloudy IPA is kettle-hopped with Centennial and Ahtanum for a bitter, hoppy edge. It’s dry-hopped with Galaxy to create aromas of passion-fruit; fermenting with a hefe yeast imparts traditional banana and clove notes. The flavour is fresh and citrusy, the mouthfeel smooth and lively. This white has some bite to it!
Killer White IPA will make it’s debut on draught during a launch party at the brewery today (June 29th) starting at 4:00 PM, with bottles to follow next week.

- Greg C. is drinking a Venskab by Beau's All Natural Brewing Company at King & DufferinClose to 7 years old but still in great condition. Well carbonated, notes of pineapple and oaked white wine, dry & peppery finish.
- Greg C. is drinking a Wiseman’s Weizenbock by Mill Street Brewery at King & DufferinUpfront malty sweetness, notes of banana bread & raisin & cocoa & dried cherry, medium bodied, hint of booze. Well made & right on style.
- Greg C. is drinking a Heir Apparent by Lickinghole Creek Craft Brewery at King & DufferinPepper beers aren’t usually my thing but this is an exception. Great balance to all the flavours and abv is not obvious at all. Impressive!
- Greg C. is drinking a Tripel Thread by Kensington Brewing Company at King & Dufferin11 months old. I tend to prefer my Tripels on the drier side, but this is still a pretty good one. Tart gooseberry notes cut the sweetness.
- Greg C. is drinking a Monogamy (Callista) by Bellwoods Brewery at King & DufferinNot very familiar with Callista hops but they work well here, bringing notes of apricot, gooseberry, blueberry & a slight floral edge.
