IPA · KRIEK · BLOND BEERS

IPA, or India Pale Ale (5%) 0.5l was born in England in the 18th century when there was a need to send beer to British soldiers in India. The beer that was produced in Britain in those days would not have survived a six-month journey from Britain to India, so a special strong, heavily hopped beer was created. A. Le Coq IPA is a pale ale with strong hoppy flavour that has been brewed with Chinook, Amarillo, Cascade and Citra hops that add bitterness to the beer. A. Le Coq Kriek (4,5%) 0.5l is an ale that contains 15% of real cherry juice. In the brewing process we have used Hallertau Magnum hops and this beer has a nice sour cherry taste and a slight aroma of almonds. This beer was inspired by the well-known Belgian cherry beer Kriek. American Blonde Ale (5%) 0.5l has a rather short history – it was created in the US in the beginning of 1990ies when craft beers started to gain popularity. The initial aim of this beer type was to attract lager drinkers to craft beers. A. Le Coq Blond has been brewed with Tetnang, Tradition and Styrian Golding hops. The beer is slightly hazy with a straw colour and one can feel citrus undertones in its taste. Blond is a good alternative to hoppy beers.
