Introduction

The name Knee Deep was thought up by the original Knee Deep brewmaster, back when he was brewing out of his garage. One fateful night, he was doing a 90 min boil on a brew and decided to wander to the bar down the street for a quick pint. When he went in it was snowing, and by the time he left the bar, he found himself trudging through knee-deep snow. When he returned to his garage, he wrote on his fridge that he was 'knee deep in something' – and a brewery name was born. In June of 2016, the brewery celebrated six years of crafting beautiful beers that are hop forward. This isn’t a brewery that shies away from putting significant dollars into hops and malts; they would rather put out incredible beers that live up to their high standards than worry about the cost of a batch. With everything we have tasted from them, we can attest that that commitment to quality shines through in spades. DRINK THIS BEER FRESH! Fresh is very much best with this stellar triple IPA.

How it looks

This beer pours a clear, medium gold colour with a small, single finger of creamy white head of foam that produces nice lacing on the glass.

How it smells

This triple IPA has a strong, pungent aroma of citrus rind that comes at you strong with lots of pine mingling with the citrus. Touches of stone fruit and some bready malt rounds the nose out.

How it tastes

Bursts of citrus and pine hit the palate up front with some stone fruit slowly meandering its way in to combine with sweet, bready malts that do an excellent job of balancing this assertively bitter beer. This medium-bodied beer finishes with lingering bitterness and pine.

Recommended food pairing

Pair this bold, bitter beer with salt-cured ham and other charcuterie. It requires strong flavours to stand up to it, and the bitterness of the beer cuts nicely through the fat of the smoked and cured meats.
