Camden Town Brewery launches Red IPA

The new beer, which takes inspiration from Ireland, Germany and the USA is the last to be brewed by its brewer Ian.

The Red IPA has an IBU of 47, which the brewery said is the result of hop bursting, by adding the hops at the end of the whirlpool cycle.

Ian said: “The first beer I brewed at Camden was a 20 litre batch of single-hopped Pale Ale using El Dorado hops. Now I’m making a 2000 litre batch using El Dorado again. It’s nice to bring it back to where I started from here.

“The Vermont yeast I’m using will give it a distinct aroma of East Coast IPAs, and because it’s a hop-tolerant yeast strain, the eucalyptus and minty aromas from the El Dorado and Cascade hops really come through.”
