Hops and Robbers coming to Saskatchewan

Announced on Twitter this week, Double Trouble Brewing Co. out of Toronto will be coming to the prairies. Brewers of Hops and Robbers an "extra delicious IPA" will be tapping their brew at Winston's in Saskatoon as well as Beer Brothers in Regina.

The beer is described as: "This is golden IPA with an exceptionally rich and complex character. Fruity aromas of lemon with hints of pineapple combine crisply with toasty caramel flavours and a tasty malt backbone. Dry hopping with cascade hops ensures more hop aromatics are retained in the finished beer."

Either they get into Alberta, or I guess I've gotta git to Regina this spring.
