Life, The Universe and Everything

Pale Ale • 4.2% • Zaphod's 25th Anniversary Beer

“Life, the Universe and Everything” was brewed to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Zaphod’s, a seminal institution of the Ottawa live music scene. This infinitely improbable pale ale is our answer to the the Ultimate Question of Life, The Universe and Everything – arriving at 4.2% ABV, of course. Offers the zing of citrus flavours, with a finish of pleasant pine.

History & Style

Session pale ales are brewed to lower original gravities than their traditional pale ale cousins, resulting in lowering their alcohol content while retaining robust flavour and aroma. Made with 100% Ontario-grown hops!

Tasting Notes

“Life, the Universe and Everything” pours hazy gold with a white foam. The aroma is lightly grapefruity with some resinous notes. Brisk and light-bodied, this ale offers the zing of citrus flavours, with a finish of pleasant pine.
