Our flagship Pale Ale, released in 1998, is brewed with specialty malts, some grown in Maine, and four types of hops. After fermentation, it is cold conditioned and dry-hopped in lagering tanks for maximum taste and quality. It is naturally carbonated in the bottle or keg using a German process called “krausening”, where a small amount of fresh fermenting wort is added. This produces a delicate carbonation and superior flavor. From the Mash Tun to store shelves is a 30 day process.

This is a really solid offering from an often-overlooked NH brewery. Very smooth and drinkable, with a great hop profile that's not too bitter, but definitely in the classic style being both more malty AND hop bitter then most of today's new IPAs. I'd happily drink again.

Balanced, adequate. Not too hoppy like a Sierra pale.

clear, dark golden color. aroma of mild caramel malt and American C hops. similar flavor, moderately bitter. medium bodied. overall definitely an old-school pale ale
