Submitted by nancy@hunterdon... on Mon, 07/18/2011 - 4:40pm

If you're both a hophead AND a fan of Full Sail, you're in luck! Our friends out in beautiful Hood River, Oregon have something new for you in their Brewmaster's Reserve Series: a dry-hopped Imperial IPA that clocks in at a whopping 80 IBUs and 7.5% abv. Elevation Imperial IPA is loaded with the "C" hops: Citra, Chinook, Columbus, Cascade and Centennial and has already earned a B+ from the geeks on Beer Advocate. As this limited release makes its way onto more store shelves and restaurant menus, the reviews will only go up from there. Nearly every creation in Full Sail's Brewmaster's Reserve Series has taken home medals from big-time beer competitions, so we're sure good things are in store for this newbie. Full Sail Brewing Company was also recently voted in the Top Ten Best Breweries at the US Open Beer Championships! Congrats to everyone at the brewery!

Elevation Imperial IPA is making its debut in New Jersey this week, so be on the lookout! And please see below for a full description from the brewery.

Also in-stock from Full Sail: IPA, Amber, Pale Ale, Session Black, Session Lager and a few cases of their LTD'05 and Hop Pursuit Extra Pale (also from the Brewmaster's Reserve Series).

Cheers!!

Self-Defined Style: 
Imperial IPA
Strength (ABV): 
7.5% ABV
Bitterness (IBU): 
80 IBU

New for 2011, this Imperial IPA’s full malt body is elevated by the loads of hop flavor and bitterness. Copious amounts of Citra, Chinook, Columbus, Cascade and Centennial hops are used to give this beer a wonderful aroma of orange zest and lemon. This fruitiness from the hops is complimented by a nice caramel biscuit malt flavor from the pale and crystal malts and finishes balanced with a slight hop kick. This beer was dry hopped for your enjoyment. Available in 22oz Bottles.

American Pale Ale
Strength (ABV): 
6.0% ABV

A crisp blonde extra pale ale with a medium malt body. The malts are chased by a ton of hop flavor and a zing of bitterness.

Best With: 
The fragrant bouquet and spicy flavor of pale ale lends to this beer’s ideal match with generously spiced foods such as Southern barbeque, wasabi crusted Japanese dishes, and curry based Indian dishes. This style is also the perfect complement to grilled meats, burgers, and pizza.

Amber Ale
Strength (ABV): 
5.5% ABV

Anyone remember the grocery store cooler back before it turned into a kaleidoscopic fantasy world of beer options? You pretty much had two choices: Regular or Light. In 1989, when we brewed our first batch of Full Sail Amber, not only was it the first Amber ale here in Beer Mecca (aka Oregon) -- it was the first craft beer to go into a bottle. And two things became immediately apparent. It wasn't Regular and it sure as heck wasn't Light. Our Amber is a sweet, malty, medium-bodied ale with a spicy, floral hop finish. It's brewed with 2-row Pale, Crystal and Chocolate malts.

Self-Defined Style: 
India Pale Ale
Strength (ABV): 
6.5% ABV

The British colonists who once visited India invented India Pale Ale. But we seriously doubt they ever enjoyed one after a day of fullblown kiteboarding. What a shame. Generously hopped to 60 IBU's in the classic style, our IPA is a real thirst quencher. It has a full, malty body and there's even a hint of fresh citrus to it. Perfect after your favorite water sport. Even if that happens to be the grueling drag-the-poolside-lounge-chair-into-the-sun event. The British colonists who once visited India invented India Pale Ale.

American Pale Ale
Strength (ABV): 
5.4% ABV

The way we see it, brewing a great Pale Ale is a lot like living a great life. It's all about finding the perfect balance. Between work and play, art and commerce, and yes, hops and barley. Dial in each flavor and nuance just right, and it's a beautiful thing. Our Pale Ale has a fresh, hoppy aroma that comes from two (top secret) Northwest hop varieties, while two-row Pale and Crystal malt give it a mild sweetness that finishes clean and crisp. Feeling out of whack? Put on some music, crack a Pale Ale, and readjust your balance.

Premium Dark Lager

Short, Dark, and Drinkable

Our newest member of the family, Session Black, carries the mantra of drinkability into new territory.

Most beers this dark are so heavy-duty, you could eat them with a fork. Session Black, on the other hand, lets you have your dark beer and drink it, too. With just a hint of roasty chocolate character, Session Black is short, dark, and totally drinkable.
At long last, a dark beer that doesn’t drink like a meal.

Premium American Lager
Strength (ABV): 
5.1% ABV

How big a bummer was Prohibition? As if taking everyone's brew away wasn't bad enough, hundreds of little independent breweries that once made super tasty beers basically got worked. And when they went out of business, America not only lost the breweries, it lost what American beer used to taste like. Session is our way of bringing back the pre-Prohibition American Lager. It's an all-malt Continental Pilsner brewed with American and European hops, so it's flavorful, refreshing, and has a touch of that import-style taste.

Look down. Candy-colored sails skim the Columbia like swarms of graffittied dragonflies. Look out. Snow-topped volcanic peaks descend into wildflower meadows, merge into evergreen forests, then abruptly stop at vertical basalt cliffs punctuated by pencil-thin waterfalls. Look up. Dry blue skies deliver the scent of ponderosas baking in the summer sun.
