Description
We are a 3bbl nanobrewery in New Hampshire's Seacoast, focused on bringing high quality, inventive craft beer to the region. Our main passion is the East Coast IPA, especially the ability of the hop to play such an integral role in taste and aroma. In addition to unfiltered IPAs, our smaller brewing capacity allows the ability to brew many one-off and experimental series outside of our core beer; pilsners, fruited sours, Goses and stouts and constantly rotating through our tanks.
Our tap room is located in Dover, NH, offering samples and pints of all of our 10 current drafts. With our 3bbl size, we are able to constantly rotate beer selections, so every time you come in you'll find new offerings and interpretations of a variety of beer styles.

16 oz. can purchased at the brewery. Canned on 5/26/2016. Turbid golden color with standard carbonation level. Aroma shows big pine Amarillo or Cascade hops with plenty of citrus. Smells real nice.
Citrus leads in the flavor with light malts for backbone. Pine leaves some light resin on the tongue and reminds me of a hop pellet texture. (Think of opening a packet of hop pellets to home brew with). Low bitterness with a abrupt finish. Pretty reasonable drinkability.

AFHops trades a great one, that did not deteriorate as be was concerned it might in 18 days from packaging. The 16oz can was a short fill and when opened and initially poured indicated it was flat. Adjusted the pour to about a foot above the imperial pint nonic and hit dead straight to bottom and got a short lived white foamy head-irridesent cloudy/murky yellow. A-jumped out as the can was popped of lots of pine/orange, some lime and ok grapefruit. T followed without a lot of bitterness but plenty of flavoring hops, and bready malt backbone. Coating on the tongue creates a yast bite in the aftertaste is the only significant drawnack.

16 oz. can purchased at Prost, North Hampton, NH. Grapefruit juice appearance, no head. Nose is a fresh grapefruit, malt and moderate level of pine. Very hop forward with malts providing a sweeter touch and make it balanced. Bitterness doesn’t overwhelm the palate but here in handfuls of Pine needles and mild fruits.
ABV is mostly hidden but shows slightly and more so as it warmed. Soft carbonation level with a slick texture. Overall very good and with a little fine tuning this could be top tier stuff. Still above average without a doubt.

Tall-boy can from AFH. Thanks man! Pretty darn fresh I think. Pours a milky dark brown with a 2 finger off-white dense head. The aroma really is pretty outrageous. Lots of juicy notes with a little oatmeal and tree sap. wood, that pine cone bite. Holy moly. It does have this tinge of home-brew taste to it, hard to describe but it’s a little of that sweetness with some plastic thrown in. But everything else is pretty solid. would drink again!

Crowler shared by Chris on 2/20/16.
Rather hazy goldenrod-yellow body is well carbonated but shows a somewhat fleeting white head.
Juicy pine and mango seem to balance each other out quite nicely in the nose. Some spiciness builds up with lightly sweet pale malts behind it adding ample but not too much maltiness. Seems to end a touch prematurely, but otherwise a very nice, clean, aromatic nose.
Juicy, with ample carbonation and a strong sense of pine, yet it’s not heavily acidic and the carbonation is tight and the malt nicely dry, for the most part. Crisp, juicy, moderately bitter and, if maybe not the most complex or envelope-pushing rendition, a delightfully well-made one, nonetheless.

32 oz growler, thanks to me purchased at the brewery. Hazy orange color without much head. Aroma is rye, citrus and traces of yeast.
The flavor has a strong rye base with the citrus notes of pine. The mouthfeel is medium with a slightly spicy finish. Light hints of pine with normal carbonation.
