Red, White, and Blueberry

The Fourth of July is upon us once again, and the island is filled with beach-goers galore. I even got my first - and hopefully only - sunburn of the season this past weekend.

We're gearing up production back in the brewery in preparation for the masses to stop in and have a beer, which means quicker turnovers of our Fruitie Patootie and IPA varieties.

To complement the banners and flags that will be waving this weekend, Fruitie Patootie blueberry will be tapped on Thursday, July 1st. The following evening, we'll have our imperial IPA Kitty Cats & Fireworks on tap, just in time for you to stop in and have a glass before the fireworks!

If IPAs or fruited blonde ales aren't your thing, we have Shorezy - a crisp, clean, refreshing summer ale sitting at a quaffable 4.9%. It's quickly becoming a seasonal favorite, so make sure you have one before it's gone.

I know I'll be sipping on one after a long day of brewing!

Cheers,

Liz (Assistant Brewer)

Full Taps

Well, it's only March and here we are with full taps ready for the throngs of weekend shore-goers as South Jersey slowly warms up and we transition into Spring.

Freshest on our line-up is the Ryesing Tides IPA (formerly known as Y Not Rye). A personal favorite - and one I've missed over the past year - you can catch me enjoying it on tap and in cans (for sale in the brewpub and around South Jersey).

And if you've been craving something wildly different from the usual IPA line-up, why not try the Wee Heavy Wilson? A Scotch Ale with a significantly peaty and earthy aroma imparts a shockingly smooth malt sweetness on your palette. I will go ahead and say I hate Scotch whisky. Like, it's up there with Jaegermeister for me - undrinkable. But this Scotch Ale is perfectly drinkable.

We also have the bourbon barrel aged version of it on tap for a very limited time and for in-house consumption only. The bourbon infusion masks a good bit of the earthy aroma, and it developed that malty sweetness into a borderline whiskey flavor. It barely tastes like drinking a beer, so if bourbon whiskey is more your style but you really want a beer, ask for the Barrel Aged Wilson. It's around 10%, so if you plan on having more than one, pair it with a smoky barbecue platter or a Peanut Butter Explosion dessert (or both, really). You won't be sorry!

Lastly, for all of you looking for something sweeter that isn't as strong as a Belgian Tripel, don't worry. We'll have the Fruitie Patootie back on tap in time to enjoy some Springtime sunshine before the real summer crowds flock down here.
