The Maine Black Bear has a long, fruitful relationship with the state of Maine as the mascot of the University, and this brew is in homage to this fruit loving American native.

Brewed with Rye Crystal malt, Shipyard Rye has a spiced, nutty taste balanced with caramel toffee flavours. As with all Shipyard beers, this brew is packed full of American hops and the Amarillo, Citra, Cascade, and Summit combine for an upfront punchy orange aroma and lingering citrus tangy

Hackney Bottleshare. Thanks to Danhy Osprey. Light haze on this amber beer, small cream colour head. Palate is light and semi dry, decent fine carbonation. Thin malts, tangy and mildly sweet. Little tangerine and orange and dried fruits. Mild spice. Tangy dry spicy finish. It's a bit thin and repressed.
