This is our flagship beer. The Atlantic is a medium bodied beer made in the uniquely American, steam styling of brewing. In “brew-guy speak” that means it’s brewed with lager yeasts at ale temperatures. Brewing a slightly sweeter, richer, caramel malt and two varieties of hops in this style makes for a truly unique flavor. Unique enough to make it an award winner at the 1993 Great American Beer Festival. You need this!

Nice aroma of nuts, hay, and dandelion. Dark amber color with a thick, creamy, tan head. Taste begins nutty, grapefruit at mid-palate, ending with a generic tinniness. Good complexity.

Pours reddish amber into a shaker. Off-white medium head recedes at a medium pace leaving little tracing. Caramel aromas. Crisp yet smooth caramel with a lasting, sweet caramel finish. Quite malty, but very enjoyable.

Can. A sweet caramel and sour milk aroma. Reddish amber color with small head. Slight smoky malt and hard toffee flavor. Moderate hops finish. Decent beer.

2005 can. Pours a amber-gold colored body, clear, bubbly and has a small amount of poorly retained white head. Aroma of bitter, nutty-like hops, grainy pale malt, bit of dry toffee, perhaps, and some dry yellow fruits. Flavor is highly bitter up front. Not really citric, just sort of bitter without much hops flavor behind the bitterness. Little bit of sticky toffee-caramel, but it’s quite dry. Watery, loose body seems at odds with the high bitterness. I also detect a fair amount of acidity in this. Hints of breadiness and biscuits. Dry/bitter finish. Medium-light body, watery texture, lively carbonation, to quote a phrase.

Beautifully balanced; nice earthy hop flavours and lively palate. I could drink a few more of these.
