Description: Although German brewing techniques took over the world, Germany had a smaller colonial footprint than other European powers. It didn’t have a colony in India, for instance. Tsingtao, in Eastern China, was settled by Germans who started the brewery of the same name. But they brewed there, not having to transport beer around Africa via ship like the Brits did. And yet, we thought it would be fun to take our IPA recipe and switch out the American ingredients with German ones. It’s not an IPL, since India Pale Lagers taste like Kingfisher, not like a hopped up Lager/IPA hybrid. See if you like what “hop stuffing” does to a bitter lager!
