Goose Island Goose IPA
When John Hall opened the Goose Island Brew Pub in Chicago in 1988, he was inspired by the variety and flavour of beers he had encountered on his travels in Europe. This beer is based on the original recipes used for the East India Company in the 18th century. An era when traditional English pale ales had additional hops added to help preserve them on their arduous journey to India. Goose IPA is regarded as a classic of this style.
