Start the weekend early by celebrating International IPA Day at Isaac Newton's on Thursday, August 4th! August 4th, 2011 has been designated as the inaugural “International IPA Day”!

Ross and is “…a grassroots movement to unite the voices of craft beer enthusiasts, bloggers, and brewers worldwide through social media” while celebrating the rise in prominence of this genre of beer and its many interpretations! As Isaac's has always strived to provide some of the greatest IPAs available, we will embrace IPA Day in full force! Throughout the day, we'll be offering up to 10 different India Pale Ales (or Double IPAs or IPA hybrids, etc.) with the following tentative schedule:
