Watch out Pop Corn, White Lightning is here!
Greetings beer lovers,
What is White Lightning you might ask? It has nothing to do with ever clear, corn liquor nor white lightning whiskey. It is, in fact, Matt's first recipe here at P-brew and is based on a Wit Bier recipe which includes both fresh sweet orange peel and Curacao bitter orange peel as well as some coriander with an amped up hop rate. It is also dry-hopped with Summit and New Zealand Motueka. It is quite tasty and big in the citrus hoppy finish. So Brian, how are you going to top this one??
Rest in Peace, Lindsey. Todm

Saison season is here as well as Memorial Day!!
Greetings beer lovers,
So, I don't know if the weekend has snuck up on you the way it did me but this is the unofficial start to summer it's time to bring on a Saison for the start of early summer and what better style to start the early summer of with than a Bier de Miel? This farmhouse ale is one of a number of rustic ales we brew here to entice our taste buds. Made with wild flower honey from Mclures in Littleton NH this beer is not sweet but quite dry and peppery on the finish with a fruity aromatic that has a touch of clove. The hop presence is apparent but not bitter and the body is just a hair above light making for a well balanced and aromatic ale. Be sure to come and have a glass of this delicious ale.... and speaking of delicious Belgian style ales we also will be serving some of Smuttynose Gravation on tap for Sundays beer so you can kill two birds with one stone this Memorial Day weekend. Cheers! Todm

American Craft Beer Week come to town on the 14th!
Greetings Craft Beer Lovers,
We are glad to be hosting a few informal events at P-Brew during American Craft Beer week down in the Jimmy Lapanza Lounge: On Monday we have master chocolatier Ann Czaja, from Lindt Chocolate, doing a pairing of 4 Lindt chocolates with 4 of our beers. Come to the brewery between 6PM and 7 PM and see how we pair beer and chocolate. On Tues. we will be pouring 10 Portsmouth brewery beers in a tap "re-takeover". Be on the lookout for some aged beers as well as our celebration to American Craft Beer week with the 2 indigenous beers styles to America; Cream Ale and California Common. We'll also be pouring our black IPA. Lot's of great beers to celebrate ACBW with. On Weds, again at 6PM 'til 7 PM we have our cheese monger friend Robert Aguilera here who will be pairing 4 cheeses with 4 of our beers. Just come on by and try 4 tasty beers with 4 tasty cheeses. On Thurs. evening between 6PM and 7PM we'll have a informal Q & A with Throwback brewer Annette, Smuttynose brewer Dave and perhaps a few other Smuttynose brewers alongside me and my crew. All you homebrewers out there bring in your questions on style and anything you might have an interest in to see if one of the aforementioned brewers can help with your queries. On Friday we'll be pouring a pin for Firkin Friday. You never know what we have in the firkin 'til you try it.
Lastly, we have a log of Smuttynose Gravitation to become the "11th tap" for the Sunday lineup. Well, that 's all for now. Hope to see you here over the American Craft Beer Week celebration. The reason we celebrate ACBW is because of all the craft beer lovers out there. So, here's to you all, you lager lovers and ale aficionados!! Cheers! Todm
PS I recently returned from San Diego after attending the Craft Brewers Conference and the World Beer Cup competition. Wow, there is a whole lotta hops goin' on out there. It seems like every brewery produces about 7 IPA's all with HUGE amounts of hops!! It's an epidemic!
