British Columbia's Granville Island Brewery is one of the granddaddy's of micro-breweries in Canada, and to help celebrate their 25th anniversary in the business, the brewery has announced the release of new IPA - Brockton IPA.
The new beer is named after the Brockton Oval in the famous Stanley Park and was chosen by residents of the West coast in a number of blind taste tests. I should have a bottle in my hands this week, so look for some notes soon.
Here is the press release:

Granville Island Brewing celebrates 25 years of originality
British Columbia’s own Granville Island Brewing is celebrating 25-years of innovation and quality with the launch of Brockton IPA, a golden-coloured, well-hopped and refreshing India Pale Ale.
Named after the Brockton Oval in Stanley Park, the Brockton IPA was chosen by {Vancouverites/British Columbians} in a series of taste tests to complement the true West Coast lifestyle.
“Brockton IPA reflects our twenty-five years of innovation and dedication to high-quality handcrafted premium beers that {Vancouverites/British Columbians} have come to know and love,” says GIB brewmaster Vern Lambourne. “Its crisp flavour and aroma can be enjoyed by anyone who appreciates the taste of a true West Coast IPA.”
GIB is well-known for its handcrafted premium beers. Inspired by the West Coast lifestyle GIB’s beer line-up includes local favourites such as its English Bay Pale Ale, and Cypress Honey Lager. The brewery uses all natural ingredients in the beer making process to ensure that its award-wining beers are 100 per cent pure: Canadian two-row barley malt and imported malts, the finest blend of European and Pacific Northwest hops, special yeasts and of course, fresh BC water.
