We're celebrating over here at Kysela, because delicious and refreshing quality craft beer is being made right in our backyard! We're excited to be distributing the brews from Winchester's own Escutcheon Brewing Co., and this week we're featuring their Plimsoll IPA.
Escutcheon Brewing Co. was founded by John Hovermale and Art Major, two friends who really, really love good craft beer. John, a master brewer, began at the Siebel Institute in Illinois more than fifteen years ago and has worked for breweries in Vermont, Maryland and Mississippi. John's beer knowledge & experience combined with Art's successful entrepreneurial skills, along with both guys' passion passion and drive to create good beer, were the perfect ingredients to build Escutcheon Brewing Co. The marine industrial names and logos, and the design of their taproom, are a nod to Art's time in the Merchant Marine.
Plimsoll is Escutcheon's flagship IPA. Foreign and domestic malts build the backbone of this copper colored elixir, while copious additions of three hop varieties leave it with clean crisp citrusy aroma. 6.7% ABV; 70 IBU; Apollo, Chinook, and Lemon Drop hops. A tried-and-true classic that's great with grilled steak, sausage dishes and BBQ.
Oh, and be sure to check out our seasonal beer schedule for a quick glance at Kysela's craft beer portfolio & seasonal availability.
