BLYTH, ON – Cowbell Brewing has announced details of the 16th release in its Renegade Series of limited edition draught-only beers.
New England Imperial IPA Braggot (7.5% abv, 86 IBU) is a collaboration with NY Beer Project from Lockport, NY. It was brewed using local Ontario honey and plenty of hops, and is described as follows:
The aroma of the New England Imperial IPA Braggot begins powerfully with passionfruit, mango, grapefruit and orange juice, and a zingy shot of pineapple and light touch of honey. The first sips of this glass of delicious beer deliver a rush of hops. Honey crisp cereal creates a base, but juicy, fruit sensations plow in with oranges, mango and green grapes and a pleasing grapefruit tang, balanced by body and gentle sweetness.
New England Imperial IPA Braggot will be available starting next week in the Cowbell taproom in Blyth, and at select bars in Ontario, while supplies last.

- Greg C. is drinking a Fruited Dry Hop Sour by Collective Arts Brewing at King & DufferinTypically good quality sour from CA, although as can happen with multi-fruit beers, the flavours are a bit lost amongst each other.
- Greg C. is drinking a Trash Panda by Parallel 49 Brewing Company at King & DufferinMore murky than hazy. Flavour is a bit muddled at first, but some nice fruit notes - peach, pineapple, mango - come through as it opens up.
- Greg C. is drinking a Too Wound Down by Bell City Brewing Company at King & DufferinI question the Session IPA classification given the fairly low IBU, but this is still a more than acceptable pale ale.
- Greg C. is drinking a RoboHop Imperial IPA by Great Lakes BreweryA modern classic of the IIPA style, at least in Ontario. Strong malt base supporting a blast of citrus, pine & tropical fruit hops.
- Greg C. is drinking a Camp-Out Pils (Moonlight Kettle Graduate 2019) by Muskoka Brewery at King & DufferinThe Motueka hops are similar enough to Saaz to fit this excellent Pils, but also have a citrus zest character that adds a unique edge.
