August 30th Beer Options:
Chompski Belgian Golden Ale 8.0%
OMT Midcoast IPA 7.2%
Prost! Altbier 5.2%
Catbird Seat Cream Ale 5.3%
Beer Descriptions:
Chompski: is a recipe inspired by the great Belgian IPA, Houblon Chouffe. A Belgian Golden Strong Ale by style, this pale, complex,
effervescent ale is highly attenuated and offers hoppy and fruity notes of lemon and grapefruit. 100% of the grain used in this beer comes from Maine farmers.
OMT (Old Man Time): This is our flagship beer and one of our first recipes. A stronger version of the American Pale Ale, this style is bitter and hoppy, showcasing American hop varieties that balance nicely with pale and crystal malts. Our creative hop profile offers the bitterness and flavor of a West Coast IPA with the aroma of an East Coast IPA…We call it a Midcoast IPA. 95% of the grains used in this beer come from Maine farmers.
Prost! Altbier is a well-balanced, well-attenuated, bitter yet malty, clean, and smooth, amber to deep copper colored German Ale that is the traditional style from Dusseldorf. This beer offers a rich malt character reflective of traditional German base malts, with nutty-toasty bread crust notes, with low hop aroma. “Alt” refers to the old style of brewing (top-fermenting ales) that was common before bottom-fermenting lagers became popular.
94% of the grain used in this beer comes from Maine farmers.
Catbird Seat Cream Ale:
An Ale version of the American Lager, with way more character. This style was originally created in the 1800’s and survived prohibition. This pale straw colored beer has
medium to low malt notes with a sweet corn-like aroma. The light hop aroma offers floral, spicy or herbal notes. It’s often referred to it as a “lawnmower beer”, we just think it’s super easy to drink and delicious. 95% of the grain used in this beer comes from Maine Farmers.
Cheers!
