500 - Zaganu Imperial IPA

Our Zaganu 5th Anniversary Beer.

our 5-year anniversary beer, called 500 Imperial IPA.

In the 1970s, in our village, Maneciu-Ungureni, Henri Coanda (the inventor of the jet engine) built and tested a suspended high-speed train that ran 500 km/h and was designed to travel the distance from Ploiesti to Bucharest (60km) in 8 minutes. His visionary experiment was a success, but it was cancelled by the authorities for lack of funds at the time. Today however, Coanda’s technology is being tested again and will be soon used. For Zaganu's 5th anniversary, we created a beer in his honor: an Imperial IPA called 500. A beer with 10% alcohol, with a strong malt back-bone, very hoppy and aromatic. Show Less
