Beer #80 - Boundary Bay Inside Pasage Ale

Boundary Bay Brewery Inside Pasage Ale
www.bbaybrewery.com

Bellingham, WA's Boundary Bay Brewery & Bistro is a brewpub that also bottles and sells kegs to other restaurants and pubs.  They have been brewing for over ten years and have won numerous awards over the years as well.  Inside Pasage Ale is a play on the India Pale Ale acronym as it is an IPA style.

It has a dark cloudy amber colour with a thick white head.

It smells of all the notes of the hops and a hint of malt.

The floral notes start followed by malt and bitterness at the same time. The citrus comes in at the end to join the bitterness to fade away.

A nicely balanced IPA, the hops are there in all their characteristics and it is a very refreshing brew.  A definite one to put on your list to try.
