Fort George Launches Island Towns, a Year-Round Tropical West Coast IPA

Fort George is expanding its lineup with Island Towns – a year-round Tropical West Coast IPA designed to bring bright fruit-forward flavor to any season. Brewed with Superdelic and Citra and Chinook hops, the beer combines ripe tropical fruit character with the citrusy edge of a classic West Coast IPA. Inspired by the laid-back and community-minded character of Astoria, Island Towns captures a taste of the Pacific Northwest – in every sip.

A press release from Fort George Brewery announced that Island Towns will be available in 6 packs year-round.

Island Towns is a Tropical West Coast IPA as bright and aromatic as an island in the sun. 

Astoria, Oregon, the home of Fort George, might not technically be an island but it can feel like an island sometimes. Not the lonely, isolated John Donne sort of island (that no man is), but a cheerful, welcoming, community-rich island. Surrounded by water on three sides, Astoria is diverse and ecologically unique with its own culture and custom. Island Towns aren’t always out of the way – this one is easy to visit. Wherever you are – you’re just one pint away.

Like the town it was brewed in, Island Towns isn’t just a summer destination. In a new, year-round 6pack, this Tropical West Coast IPA is lush, a little sweet, and perfect for activities in any season. If you’re ready to escape the crush of city life, if you’re ready to go a little slower, enjoy your time on Astoria Island with Island Towns.

Island Towns is brewed with a mix of cutting edge, fruit-forward hops like Superdelic and the bold, citrus-y west coast flavor of Citra and Chinook. Modern brewing science and warm sandy beaches, ripe tropical fruit on the breeze and a refreshing citrusy breeze off the Pacific – it’s a brand new, year-round Tropical West Coast IPA from Fort George.
