IPA is brewed finally

Well after much debate and tasting I decided upon and IPA recipe and Dean brewed it yesterday. We are very excited about this one. More details will follow once its closer to the release date.

I"ve been asked many time about what happend to our old India Red Ale. Well here is the story. Back in 2004 we started the Landmark Brewing Company and contracted with River Horse Brewing of Lambertville, NJ to brew our beer. Landmark India Red Ale was born. Sales started off brisk and than slowed down. During the spring of 2005 we made the decision to move production to a NY brewer. That process took a lot longer than anticipated, several months turned into a year. During that time our wholesaler here in NY went out of business. We decided that since we were out of the market for so long we renamed ourselves the Landmark Beer Company. With our rebirth we also changed the IRA recipe, renamed it Colonel Hops Red Ale. All brewing is now done at Wagner Valley Brewing in Lodi. Thats the short story.

Of course we still the IRA recipe. Maybe one day we'll bring it back. We'll have an online store soon. Check back in a few weeks or drop me an email and I'll notify you when its open. Almost forgot there is no max on IRA consumption annually. Unfortunately its not tax deductible.
