Remember the hot summer sun and a craving for anything cold? A lot of the time it can feel like a distant memory up here in New England. When the days were long and our only ride was a bicycle, nothing beat that glowing orange fruit cup pulled out of an ice-cold refrigerator. Fruit Cup is an American IPA meant to delight the senses. Our brewers utilized a new selection of Crystal malts creating a light and sweet backbone for a burst of hoppy goodness. Our favorite Citra lots wash over the palate with notes of plump oranges and tangy grapefruit. To further the aroma of a fruity medley Vista hops were blended into the mix, bringing forth a burst of honeydew melon and sweet peach notes! Enjoy this special beer and drink it ice cold!

Pours murky gold into a tulip. Bright white head with good retention recedes leaving trailing sheets. Guava, papaya, mango, melon and passion fruit aromas. Crisp with sweet white smarties, lychee and papaya front to back. Medium length melon and tangerine pith finish.

Nice juicy notes, with a robust hop finish that doesn’t linger.

Charlton draught, 5/7/25.
Heavily hazy, with a bit darker bronze in there. Small, white head, good retention.
Extremely juicy and fruity. Typical Citra (orange, mango, papaya) with a touch of peach and pineapple. Rich, white bread and honey-like malts gently balance. Very low acidity.
And yet there's ample bitterness in the mouth. Rich white bread and biscuit are amplified by a dab of caramel but dry out nicely on the finish. The hops create all sorts of fruit notes, from citrus, to stone, to tropical. Zesty, zingy, dry, malty. Lovely.

Pours a hazy, orange-butterscotch color, with mid-sized head. Aroma is very juicy, bight citrus and tropical fruit. Flavors not quite as juicy, but still pretty bright, pronounced. Soft, smooth mouthfeel. Mild hop bitterness in the finish.
