TORONTO, ON – Bandit Brewery has announced details of a new beer being released today (March 20th) to mark the first day of Spring.
Aequinox is an Imperial IPA that was fittingly brewed with Ekuanot – aka Equinox – hops. It’s described as follows:
Helmed by our brewer, Ben, this new beer is a smooth Imperial IPA bursting with aromas of berries, citrus and melon. It’s our first time using these hops, which was one of our main reasons for creating the Aequinox. “The choice of equinox was to showcase a hop variety we haven’t used before and brew a big beer to see out the winter and welcome in the spring,” says Ben. “We hope that the fruit aromas will invoke the not too far off summer with the high alcohol keeping off the seemingly perpetual cold.”
Aequinox IIPA is available now in the Bandit bottle shop. and will be on tap when the brewpub opens at 5:00 PM today.
