Craft Beer Selection: Monumental IPA from Port City Brewing Co. 

 

When you are in the area of Alexandria, Virginia which is very close to Washington, DC, you should visit Port City Brewing Co. for their craft beer tastings. It is always fun to discover new favorites. I recommend their Monumental IPA as one of your selections as an outstanding India Pale Ale. Click on the link to learn more about the brewery, the available beers and the prices.

 

Tour and Tasting Schedule

 

Port City Brewing Company 
3950 Wheeler Avenue 
Alexandria, VA 22304  703.797.2739

SMOOTH, CRISP AND REFRESHING

ABV: 6.3%

Monumental IPA is a rich, clear copper in color. Our flagship India Pale Ale exhibits floral aromas and flavors of citrus with piney-resin all in combination with malty, toasty caramel background notes. Our unique twist with this IPA is that it demonstrates the delicious, yet elusive perfect balance between a hoppy bitterness and malt flavors.

We believe that Monumental IPA is a great example of a complex and perfectly balanced East Coast style of IPA.

Good morning Roy.  It's just a little early for me to have a beer, maybe a little later this afternoon.
