Hey all,
So we got a hold of some Big A IPA Kegs from Smuttynose. I know some of you out there think that four Smuttynose taps is a bit much. But, It's BIG A!!!! I am so excited to be pouring this beer. I think it rivals any Impy IPA out on the market. Big resinous mouth feel with the hop nose and hop flavor linger to let you know you are drinking an Impy IPA.
And for a little teaser. For those of you who couldn't make the beer social on Tuesday keep and eye out on the blog/facebook next week-ish. We have a beer or two that you guys will enjoy some night.
Cheers,
Tyler

From Germany to Thailand...
hey all,
The Kolsch is gone. But don't you fret, we replaced it with another beautiful summer beer, our Thaizenheimer. This is the same recipe as the Weizenheimer with a Thai influenced twist. We add Kaffir Lime leafs, Lemongrass, Ginger and Galangal late in the boil to keep in all of their great aromatics and flavor. Yummy!
If you have never had our Spicy Curry Mussels now is the time! There isn't a better beer pairing then those and the Thaizenhiemer. My mouth is drooling just thinking about it.
Cheers,
Tyler

Holster those nunchucks...
Hey all,
So the Ginga' Ninja was a huge hit at the Vermont Brewers Festival this year. It was our first beer to kick! Apparently it was pretty popular back on the home-front as well, since it is gone. We are planning on making another batch in the fall, so for those of you who missed it, keep an eye on the blog. We replaced it with the Weizenheimer. This beer is and American wheat ale, a nice light easy drinking beer to get us though this hot spell we have been having.

Tyler

Our friendly neighborhood distributor...
Hey all,
So our friendly neighborhood distributor found a few kegs of Lagunitas Pale Ale that was accidentally delivered to NH. Who are we to say no to that! We put it on in place of the Sholes Pale Ale on our tap line up. This beer has the hop flavors and finish of an IPA but w/o the bitterness. Very nice!

The Sumpin' is gone!
Hey all,
So we flew trough our stock of the little Sumpin' over the weekend, so I hope you guys got in to give it a try. Other beers that kicked over the weekend were the Wit and the Black Cat Stout. They were replaced with the Gose and J.O.S. respectively.
The Gose has been made here before. It is an ancient German style wheat beer that pre-dates the Hefeweizen style of beer. It has the addition of coriander for a nice spice note and the addition of Salt makes the finish art and slightly drying on the pallet. My goodness, what a perfect hot weather summer beer.
The J.O.S. is a new style for us. J.O.S. stands for Jurgans Oatmeal Stout. For those of you who follow all of our blogs/facebook page you might remember our friend Jurgan, who is the head Maltster at Wyermann Malting company in Germany. He came to visit and recreate his birthday beer, a German Oatmeal Stout. This beer is very light and easy drinking for a stout. The roast character and the body are lighter then our Oatmeal Stout. It is a perfect summer time Stout, because it is not to aggressive in any capacity!

Tyler

Get out your Nunchaks...
hey all,
If you made it in last night you must of had a great time. We went through quite a bit of the Little Sumpin', but we sill have some left. So get in in this weekend and try it. It's such a cool beer, a Wheat IPA that doesn't let you down. As we are the only place in the North east you are going to find it on tap too!
Secondly i wanted to let you know that the Bluebeery is gone. Before you ask we will be making another batch for the end of the summer so keep and eye out for that if you are a Bluebeery fan! We put on the Ginga' Ninja IPA on the tap line. This is a Red IPA that is finished with ginger. So it is a " Ginga' " in every sense of the word. Let me know what you think of it!
Cheers,
Tyler

We got a little something to tell y'all....
Hey all,
So the Brew House computer had been down for almost a week!!! I apologize for not keeping the 'What's on tap" section updated during that time. But i can assure you we have a new machine that is 10x faster then the old one. The blog is where it is at!
So if you haven't already heard through the grapevine we putting Little Sumpin' on tap tonight at 6 o'clock! We are excited to have Leon Sharyon, (the CFO of Lagunitas who happens to be vacationing in the area) here to do the ceremonial tapping. We are the first draft account in the North East for the Little Sumpin', and the second on the east coast. New York city got a couple of kegs before we did, but they are almost their own country down there. I mean did you see the first "Sex in the City" movie. That was the first time the left the city! But i digress.
So we have smuttynose IPA taking ownership of the line behind Stone's Ruination, which kicked yesterday. though at 6 tonight we are tapping a Little Sumpin' so be here or be square.
Cheers,
Tyler

Can you believe it is July 4th weekend??
Greetings beer lovers!
As I stated in the title I can't believe it is already July 4th weekend!! How quickly the time flies. Hopefully, many of you have taken advantage of the fine weather out there. The town of Portsmouth has been jammin' and it looks like it is going to be a good night for fireworks. Do stop by the brewery as we have on our celebratory beers to the 4th with our Murphy's Law red ale: a malt forward Irish style red ale with good balance, (White or) Wit : a Belgian style wheat beer brewed with both bitter and sweet orange as well as coriander and white pepper for a nice crisp wheat beer with the hint of spices and Blue: our blueberry ale brewed with 120 #'s of individually quick frozen Maine blueberries, a well balanced pale ale with the addition of fruit. Also on is the Stone Ruination IPA a big strong well balance double IPA. The Retro pale ale was inspired by Peter's Pale ale recipe brewed many years ago both at NoHo brewery and P-Brewery. The two malt grain bill and two hop additions make for a simple yet delicious pale ale. Lot's of beers in the works including Jurgen's Oatmeal Stout (JOS), Gose, double Witt and Weizenheimer. And the big news flash is:
A collaboration brew with Dogfish Head's owner/brewer Sam Calagione on July 27th! We'll be brewing a Fruit Gruit. Details still to come but the night before we'll be doing a beer dinner with Sam. Be on the lookout for the details on this special event.
That's about it from the cellar. Hope you have a safe and festive 4th of July. Cheers! Todm
