Fort George Brewery & Ruse Brewing have brewed a beer to honor friendship and pizza. Pizza Pals is a new winter seasonal IPA brewed in collaboration with Ruse’s Crust Collective on the Vancouver Waterfront. Celebrate the world’s most logical food and beverage pairing with a pint of Pizza Pals.
We made the perfect beer for pizza: packed with Nelson and Simcoe Hops alongside the fanciest malts we could muster for a balanced, snappy American IPA.
Ruse’s Crust Collective on the Waterfront in Vancouver, which opened earlier this year, is a chapel built to honor the gods of pizza. At Fort George, you’ll find the Pizza Upstairs. We’ve been making wood-fired pizza in Astoria for almost a decade and our happiness upon learning that our friends were serving pizza and beer could only be measured in more beer. Which is why we teamed up with Ruse and their brand-new Crust Collective to brew Pizza Pals.
Appearance: Hazy gold, dense white foam
Aroma: Ripe mango, pineapple, white wine grapes, papaya
Flavor: Tropical fruit sweetness with balanced bitterness and grapefruit pizzaz
