After a few years of home brewing in our garage, my brother and I decided we should open a brewery so that we could share our beer. In 2009 we started with a one barrel system and worked on a single recipe, over and over, until Peeper was born. And now we have enough to share. Cheers!

Pours a clear, light gold, with smallish head. Aroma is grassy, with some malt and floral notes. Flavor is lightly bitter, with grass, cracker, and light citrus. Tastes more like a lager or pilsner than a pale ale. It's not bad, but not quite what I was expecting.

On tap at Row 34 Boston . Hazy pale gold colour lasting white head. Fresh tasting. Lime. Good citrus flavours. Very drinkable. Good hops. The lime goes well with the spicy lobster tacos. Good. Light on malts but that doesn't matter . It's a good lime sherbet apa. Creamy. Lovely.

This is an odd situation where the Hop smell's kind of fresh and at the same time a little skunky. I know there are some hops that naturally do that a little bit but I don't know if this is one of those cases. Generally the beer is fairly dry through the start and all the way until the middle of the finish and then there's some residual sweetness that comes into play but the way the bitterness is it all works very nicely together. The Hop flavors don't have any of the skunkiness and are a cross between Citrus floral and herbal. Nice beer.

500 ml bottle. Pale straw gold color is lightly hazy. Rocky white head. Nice lacing. Fragrant citrusy malt nose. Light citrus malt flavor is clean and crisp. Some yeastiness on the palate as well. Notes of hay and grassy hops. Light bitterness in middle. Dry lemon peel hop finish. Refreshing, but pricy.
