About
Confused? Overwhelmed? Thirsty?

That is how I felt as I sat at my favorite drinking establishment recently, gazing at over 50 different draft lines simply trying to figure out which beer to order. And I am a 20 year veteran of the craft beer industry!

Since I started in 1993, thousands of craft breweries have sprung up and a war is raging over IBUs and ABV. Now, I like hops, but everything in moderation, please! I don’t need 120 IBUs or 9% ABV on a night out with friends.

Then it hit me…I am in a position to do something about it!

So I present to you THE JUST BEER PROJECT…a craft beer company with a mission to deliver my fellow beer drinkers world class craft beers that are:

Delightful in their simplicity – nothing complicated or exotic, just all natural ingredients from close to home
Sessionable, staying in the 5% ABV range
Focused on a delicious malt/hop balance

The perfect beer for the person who’s looking to spend less time reading about beer, and more time drinking it.

I hope you enjoy our first PROJECT – Un-complicating beer. You just drink it. It tastes great. JUST IPA.

Cheers!

Bottle from Ayotte’s Pours a brilliantly clear medium golden color with a huge bubbly white head that last forever and sticks lots of lace on the way down. Earthy citrus and mineral water backed up by a bit of bready caramel. The flavor is quite malty with a solid toffee melanoid thing going on. Earthy citrus hop flavor counters but never shows enough to call this beer an IPA. Light to moderate lingering hop bitterness in the finish. Medium body with a moderate level of carbonation. This is an odd little beer. Reminds me more of a mild or an English bitter than an IPA. Easy to drink and no real flaws, I guess its OK, but doesn’t wow me.

Sampled on draft at 3R6P this beer poured a dark orange-amber color with a huge foamy orange-beige head that lingered and left good lacing. The aroma was malty caramel and grapefruit. The flavor was bitter grapefruit, malty biscuit, caramel, lemon and a touch of floral hops. Medium length finish of biscuit, caramel and grapefruit. Medium body. Nothing special but pleasant drinking.
