Troegs Brewing Co., out of Hershey, PA., brew many fine beers and has built a quality reputation in the Craft Brew industry. I sampled a six pack of the Perpetual IPA. In 12 oz bottles that comes in at 7.5% abv. Troegs calls this an “Imperial Pale Ale.” Personally, I’m not quite sure what the difference is between this and most IPAs which usually stands for an India Pale Ale. Usually, the India Pale Ales tend to be hoppier since back in the day the sailors used hops as a preservative to keep their ale fresh for the long voyage to India. Anyway, back to the Perpetual IPA (however it might be denominated). It pours a light gold in color with a whiteish head that leaves light but impressive lacing on the glass. The light color belies the full bodied flavor of this beer, which is very enjoyable and look forward to having it again….as well as sampling more of Troegs delicious, well made beers.
