Beer Descriptions:
Juicebox IPA: Here you go Hop Lovers…This one’s for you. A New England Style IPA by style, this beer is low on hop bitterness but high on the flavors and aromas of all things citrus. We use 3 pounds of 3 different hops, added 3 different ways. Named for a beloved member of the FBB family who is otherwise known as “The Juicebox Guy”. 97% of the grain used in this beer comes from Maine Farmers.
Black is Beautiful: A Beer worth celebrating!
In recognition and celebration of Juneteenth, we are happy to offer our Imperial Stout recipe which is full of coffee and roasted notes, but aged to allow for a smooth finish with a touch of sweetness. Please join us in reflecting on this part of U.S. History and consider ways to advance diversity, equity and inclusion. 70% of the grain and 100% of the maple syrup used in this beer comes from Maine farmers and friends.
Victory Lap: For our final year, we wanted to celebrate with a new recipe. Inspired by other Belgian beers we’ve done in the past, with some new hops and new hopping techniques, we bring a beer to toast 8 years of community, family and friendship. 100% of the grain used in this beer comes from Maine farmers. Plus a whole lotta love!
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!
