Smuttynose Imperial Stout

Smuttynose Brewing Company Imperial Stout comes with the instructions “Drink it fresh for the hops or cellar it for a refined malty experience.” The ever-generous New Hampshire brewers shipped us three, so we’ll be doing both and keeping one as a backup, because you never know what life is going to throw your way.

Toasted Lager by Blue Point Brewing Co. was originally named for the “toasted” characteristic of our original direct-fire brick kettle. Our World Beer Cup gold medal winning flagship brew is brewed with a blend of six specialty malts for a flavor as rich and unique as the town it’s from.
