Judges Ratings 
Description 

#06 Smells like Citrus IPA takes us on the track for our second run of the Challenge Series. The malt character is led by the 2-row, Pilsner and wheat malt bill. The malt base is turbocharged by a citrus blast of orange and tangerine flavors. The hop aroma will trade paint with the juicy flavor thanks to a late hop addition of Amarillo, Mandarina Bavaria, Citra and Cascade hops. Barbarian yeast completes this fast paced lap with it’s stone fruit esters and added hop aromatic enhancement.

Judges Ratings 
Description 

Concrete Ship is our full-bodied Russian Imperial Stout, with notes of cocoa and coffee, subtle roastiness, and a silky smooth mouthfeel befitting a beer named after a sunken WWI naval folly. Instead of sinking our stout off Cape May's Sunset Beach, we laid ours to rest in freshly dumped 7-year aged Kentucky bourbon barrels. The extended aging in these gorgeous vessels amplifies the chocolate-y undertones, with the oak character and barrel's influence pulling out a rich, velvety texture to the beer, pairing beautifully with the subtle heat from the barrels. A blend of eight different malts give Concrete Ship a layered profile that begs to be barrel aged, so we sourced the choicest barrels to see this maiden voyage to port.

Description 

Brewed in the classic Flemish Red style, Red Flag is brewed in small batches on our 15 Barrel Brewhouse. Each batch is aged in stainless and then moved to bourbon and red wine barrels for further maturing. The barrels are then hand selected and blended to create the most complex and seductive sour ale possible. Red Flag is the first sour offering in the Uncharted Waters series. Deep ruby in color, this barrel aged sour ale delights with sweet malt tones, complex fruit undertones, and a deliciously tart finish.
