This harvest tribute from our Resilience American ale line uses hand-selected, whole cone, locally grown Cascade from The Hopyard in Gorham, Maine. We visited the farm as the hops were picked fresh and sorted on site, using them immediately upon return to the brewery for this variation on Whilom, our West Coast Pale Ale. This special version of Whilom pours a burnt orange with a long lasting white foam cap. Grated orange zest and light herbal tea touch the nose. A faint honey sweetness rests on the palate. Orange marmalade and grapefruit pith dominate, showcasing the fresh Cascade. Mildly bitter on the finish.

Canned 9/16/21, drunk 8/17/22. Amber, light haze. Large, off-white head, good retention. Spice and caramel with biscuit and such. Fruity but clean yeast. No alcohol or resin. Fruity yeast, spicy hops and crackery malts with light crystal malt iced tea and caramel. Bit of butter and vanilla. This is a great beer, just a bit old.

Pours bright, clear gold into an English pint. Creamy white head with excellent retention recedes leaving spot lacing. Sourdough, pine and resin aromas. Medium bodied with dark caramel, pine and earthy resin front to back.

Can from Livonia Liquor. Pours a clear copper with a finger of off-white foam that lingers. Notes of grapefruit pith, citrus and toasted caramel. Palate is similar, not overly heavy. Refreshing notes of grapefruit pith and peel with toasted malt. Balanced finish that leans bitter. Reminds of Sierra Nevada Pale Ale.

Hop and malt balance is good. Flavor is mild citrus, herb and soft malt back bone. Texture is lightly juicy with a medium body. Soft lingering herbal bitterness. Well crafted.
