IPA (India Pale Ale) is a style characterized by strong bitterness and aroma, using a large amount of hops, which are the source of beer's bitterness and aroma. Its bitterness and aroma have been accepted as 'individuality' and are said to have led the craft beer boom.
Hops
Sankt Gallen also produces an IPA-style beer called 'YOKOHAMA XPA' year-round, which has won the World's Best title twice in the IPA category of the World Beer Awards.

Father's Day IPA uses more hops than YOKOHAMA XPA, but by concentrating the timing of hop addition after boiling the wort instead of during, it has become a beer with a light hop bitterness and a condensed hop aroma reminiscent of fruits like pineapple and citrus.
Generally, IPAs are often finished with a rich, heavy mouthfeel to balance the strong bitterness.
However, Father's Day IPA cuts the beer's sugar content to almost zero, resulting in a dry and refreshing taste.
It's an IPA perfect for hot days, overturning the image of an IPA to be savored slowly, allowing you to drink it heartily.

About Sankt Gallen
Sankt Gallen is the 'original craft brewery' that brewed and sold small-batch beer in the United States even before craft beer was legalized in Japan. This became a topic of discussion in American media such as TIME and Newsweek, which then spread to Japanese media. It stirred public opinion and played a role in the legalization of craft beer in Japan. For this reason, it is called 'Craft Beer No. 0' within the industry.
The beers brewed by Sankt Gallen consistently adhere to the 'ale-only' philosophy, which is the opposite of the 'lager' style prevalent among major brewers in terms of brewing method and taste. It boasts numerous awards in domestic and international competitions. In addition to such classic beers, it also manufactures and sells various unique beers such as 1.8-liter bottle beer, wheat wine released simultaneously with Beaujolais Nouveau, and fruit beers made with seasonal fruits, widely disseminating the charm of craft beer.
Sankt Gallen is a place name in Switzerland.
The Sankt Gallen Abbey there was the first place in the world to obtain a brewing license.
To inherit that origin, the brand is named 'Sankt Gallen'.
