From our first hand-delivered keg to the hundreds of brews we’ve distributed throughout the region, the past ten years have been an incredible experience. As a nod to the traditional 10-year anniversary gift, we’ve brewed this celebratory beer and packaged it in aluminum! With an abundance of wheat and oats and an insane amount of dry-hopping, this brew features a soft, pillowy mouthfeel to create a tidal wave of juicy, tropical, and hoppy bliss. We’re grateful to share this brew with you to celebrate this momentous milestone. Here’s to another ten years of amazing beers!

lightest double i think I have ever had, dare I say a session version of DIPA? This one is subtle on taste but with this ABV be careful in going thru a few of these.

Can dated 6/24/21 into pint glass. Pours a murky straw color with essentially no head. Initial impression is subdued citrus, grapefruit, a bit of mango, pine, and biscuity malts. Mouthfeel is medium and middle-of-the-road, as is carbonation. Finish is clean and refreshing. Overall, an OK but not memorable NEIPA. Meh.

This is one of those hoppy smelling brews that hits the nose as soon as the pint can is cracked open. The second notice is more of a concern, a billowing stark white head equals wheat added to an IPA equals less taste and body. The smell is soft hops and more oats than wheat, a chance for redemption. Now inside a clear glass liter mug, the color is a dense and dull blond-amber. Carbonated, but there's little residual head, after the initial foam, the glass lacing isn't worth mentioning. The taste is nicely of hops, moderate in bittering, in a less than supple body, no thanks to the wheat. This is a mediocre brew, without a commitment to hops, nor malt. Obviously, the bias is to have a somewhat hoppy beer at the expense of the malt, traditionally a big part of IPAs. That's the current trend and this is just another follower with nothing more to contribute.

2nd review. Tried all their anniversary ales.
a) Murky yellow body.
s/t) grapefruit, fruit and hop laden, grassy. A bit of pine.
f) slick, pungent, clean finish.
o) Hop bomber.

8%ABV but not too boozy, flavorful in a good Ballast Point grapefruit sculpin/summer kind of way, hoppy but not overpowering the flavor. Didn’t expect the color, thought I cracked a Hoeggarden when I first poured it from the can. Overall a very good summer offering from Cape May Brewing, could drink these on the beach all day.
