Jam Session ISA Seasonal Release @ McMenamins

April 8, 2016

Spring is in bloom and its song plays the soundtrack to a beautiful season. Wanting to add our instrument to the collaboration, the McMenamins Brewers were inspired to produce Jam Session ISA, a light and easy-drinking beer that embodies the spirit of Spring as it fades into Summer. We jazzed up this Session Ale with an ensemble of hops and an arrangement of malts. Brewed in the style of an India Session Ale, you’ll find a brew that has low alcohol levels and full flavor.

Chinook Hops are the bass beat providing a driving pulse of citrus notes. Mosaic and Centennial Hops play off of each other, creating a harmony of floral tastes and aromas to round out this symphonic trio of hop flavor. Falconer’s Flight dry-hopping adds a wonderful, airy nose. We have used a composition of grains to provide balance to this masterpiece. Golden Promise Malt creates the backdrop to this subtly sweet performance, while Vienna, Flaked Barley and 15L Crystal provide a hint of style and color to the ambiance.

Being an India style, expect our quartet of hops to be the front man of this band, providing strong riffs of floral and pine with a beat of citrus. A majority of the hops are added in late additions, which provides full flavors and aromas without the bittering astringency. Whether you’re a hard-rockin’ IPA drinker or a classic Golden Ale fan, you’ll find the essence and song of the season in every pint. Enjoy a Jam Session ISA and turn up the volume of your day. A one, a two, a one, two, three, cheers!
