Yankee Ingenuity
The Able Ebenezer Brewing Company

DESCRIPTION:

Hazy, with notes of berry, sweet fruit and citrus. Brewed with citrus, galaxy, mosaic and motueka hops.

THE STORY:

By 1850, the United States suddenly emerged as a global economic power. Wild new inventions and innovations became a staple of American culture. As one European attendee at the Centennial Exhibition remarked:

“The American invents as the Italian paints and the Greek sculpts.

It is genius.”

And the best explanation many have pointed to is a rather unacademic one: “Yankee Ingenuity,” which refers to the dogged determination of the citizenry to solve problems, no matter the challenge.

You could call it work-ethic, creativity, talent, imagination, genius or just plain stubbornness, and you wouldn’t be wrong; one could argue that it is a combination of all the above. In essence, New Englanders know how to “get sh*t done.”
