\n\"Barn<\/a>Ten years deserves a 10% beer. Adventure is brewing.<\/p>\n
Today\u2019s sampling is Barn Hammer Brewing\u2019s<\/a><\/b> Ten <\/i>Triple IPA, a brew made for the tenth anniversary of the brewery. 2016 was a massive year for the Manitoba craft beer industry – not one but multiple breweries all opened up in a short period of time after there being ten years since the last brewery opening with Half Pints Brewing. I wrote an article about all the openings<\/span><\/a><\/b> while I was writing my First Draught<\/i>\u00a0column in the Brandon Sun. Heck, I still remember when Tyler from Barn Hammer sent me a message to come check out their plans on what they were expecting to build out of an old garage.. it\u2019s come a long way!<\/div>\n

Now that Barn Hammer is 10 years old, they created a Triple IPA in honour of the occasion – Ten trips around the sun. A juicy triple IPA reminiscing of mango gelato, peach nectar, and passion fruit shaved ice. The colossal grist is formed by a blend of the finest pale, pilsner, wheat and chit malts, fortified by smooth as silk flaked oats.<\/p>\n

Appearance: <\/b>Deep, opaque orange body with a moderate amount of off-white head on top. There\u2019s a tad bit of lacing on the glass as it goes down.<\/p>\n

Aroma: <\/b>The things about Triple IPAs are that they\u2019re incredibly sweet AF and this is definitely sweet but not too too bad. It\u2019s tropical with notes of peach, leafy & floral hops, a hefty oatiness, and a hint of mango.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Taste: <\/b>Peachy, oaty, leafy and floral hop. This is definitely a light sipper as I forgot that this is 10% so I briefly choked.. but that happens. A bit of a p\u00fbr\u00e9ed fruit taste to it, mango, a tad bit of bitterness but that\u2019s subdued by the oats (again) to give it a hint of a breakfast cereal vibe at the very end.<\/p>\n

Overall Thoughts:<\/b> This immediately reminded me of something but I couldn\u2019t remember.. it was Flying Monkeys\u2019 Sparklepuff TIPA, also 10% and peach-forward.. a beer I bought in Netherlands, sampled in Belgium and have seen all over Manitoba. For 10 years, it\u2019s definitely a nice choice and I\u2019m glad they did this in a 355mL format because this.. this is a very strong IPA.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
