On a rainy fall day in 2009, my five year old daughter Zoe and I were wandering the streets of Bar Harbor and stumbled across the Whale Museum. Zoe loved it. It put a smile on her face. Hopefully our ale will do the same for you. Cheers!

Bottle. Dark, hazy amber with an off white head. Aroma is is hoppy like an IPA. The taste however, is unique. Sweetness is all through it but a slightly bitter finish.

Bottle from winooski beverages.
Dark amber pour, small beige head. Beautiful citrus aroma, light fruit and some night nutty malts. Flavour is more great hops and solid bready malts. Finish is a fantastic floral hoppiness, with a great bitter bite. Wow! Impressive!

Pours a slightly hazy, red-amber, with big, lasting cream head. Aroma is bread, citrus, some hops. Flavor follows. Smooth and crisp mouthfeel.

Oh my. Gorgeous, beautiful pint, pouring out a slightly opaque burnt umber with a frothy beige head and infinite lace. Woody nose leads to a citric, caramel-laced front end, dusted with cocoa and dripping with resin, grapefruit zest, pine, and grass, leading to an herbal, bitter finish underlined by a subtle, coffee-tinged sweetness. Hops cling to the palate long into the fade, as does a tea-like undercurrent. Not sure if I could distinguish this hoppy amber ale from a Red IPA, but who cares. It's amazing.

500ml bottle. Pours deep amber. Pine, orange zest, grapefruit zest, biscuit, caramel, toffee, sweet red fruit, little bitterness in the finish. Good soft body. Fantastic balance. Gorgeous example of the style.
