Not only is today a double brew day but we are also debuting our newest beer, 47 Bells! This Belgian Pale Ale was hopped using Cascade, Amarillo, Simcoe and Citra giving it a nice citrus vibe with hints of pine on the back end. We reused Belgian yeast from our Real Blonde for this brew so it has a fantastic banana Belgian funk that is sure to please. A nice easy drinker, the 47 Bells rings in at 6.6% ABV and will be available in our tap room starting at 4pm! (If you look closely you might be able to find 47 Bells in our photo today too!)

Monday morning Brewday. Now that we're recovered from Atlantic City Beerfest we're getting our tanks full of fresh new beer. Brewing a brand new North East IPA today showcasing a brand new style of hop: Medusa. Medusa is considered a "Humulus lupulus neomexicanus", a whole new species from our typical "humulus lupulus lupulus" which gives it a unique guava, melon, and apricot flavor. We've paired it with Cascade and Citra to bring out even more bright fruit flavors. In addition to todays Brewday we're also getting the second (of three) hoppings done on DDH Waikikamukau (pictured) which will have more than 4 lbs per Barrel of Motueka, Cryo Citra, Columbus, Wakatu, and Vic Secret.
