We are excited to announce that the following brands will be available all year round via private order in Ontario;
Just in from one of our favorite Quebec micro breweries; Microbrasserie Charlevoix. Continuously hopped for 60 minutes, this gift to hop heads is ripe with fine aromas and distinguished bitterness. Simcoe and Amarillo are renowned for their high concentration in fruity aromatic oils and are paired with Saaz, famous for its spicy yet delicate dryness. This is thus an exclusive batch for lupuline lovers, those who revel in the noble golden hop resins which give this beer such an engaging perfume aroma. Lupulus 2012 is a canticle to Humulus Lupulus, our hoppy beer deity. Amarillo, Simcoe and Saaz are the cultivars used to send this ale to heavenly realms.
Keep6 Imports is also very excited to announce that we have expanded our distribution to Manitoba. Working with MLCC Liqour Marts we have brought our first beer (Charlevoix Lupulus) to the Manitoba market! Info Here.
