About
We are the incredible result of what happens when brewers wonder “what if” and pursue that curiosity to its fullest. We created Springdale to push the limits of fermentation and explore flavors with the hope of creating bold new beers to share with our friends. That’s why we launched with the largest barrel program in Massachusetts. Over 1300 barrels currently sit in our taproom working their slow magic on beautiful beers. But that wasn’t enough for us. Next we dove into IPAs, traditional European beers with new twists, and fruit-forward kettle sours. All of these were created to explore fermentation forward beers and find new ways to share them with you.

We arrived at this pursuit in a unique way as well. The brewers of Jack’s Abby had been cultivating killer craft lagers for years before we launched, but found themselves wanting to push the limits of beer far beyond their core, traditional lagers. That left them with only one choice – start a whole new brand. That curiosity and willingness to take risks is what launched Springdale. The quality and expertise in this brewery is what drives Springdale.

GBBF Day 3. Cask. Hazy gold beer, no head. Light palate, fairly dry, decent fine carbonation. Tart white wine and mild lemony sourness. Pinch of sherbet. Light finish. Any apricot is lost on me but it's a nice beer.

Cask gravity at GBBF 2018. It pours darkest brown with a small tan head. The aroma is rich coffee character, umami, leather, liquorice, spicy, peppery, dull chocolate and earth. The taste is slick, oily, charred wood, burnt toast, smoked malt, liquorice, peppery spice, toasted sesame and leather with a dry, umami finish. Medium + body and fine carbonation. Plenty of umami. Decent.

Cask gravity at GBBF 2018. It pours cloudy bright golden with a few bubbles on top. The aroma is musty, tart, loads of sour apricot, bright, peach, persimmon, nectarine, oak, vanilla, sweaty, musty, barnyard and some kitty litter. The taste is dry, tart, bright, punchy acidity, enamel ripper, sherbet, plenty of sour apricot, persimmon, musty, funky, oak, wet hay and grass with a drying and bracing finish. Medium body and fine carbonation carbonation. If anything too much acidity, but I like what's going on.

On tap at Tip Tap Room, pours a hazy pinkish red with a small white head. Aroma brings out fresh tart raspberries upfront, with some oak and a touch of wild yeast. Flavour is bone dry, with tart raspberries, lots of oak, and some wild yeast. Bone dry and funky. Really nicely put together.

Amirite?! IPA from Springdale Beer Company

6.2/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 6 Flavor 6 Texture 6 Overall 6
Draught at Lulu's, 3/28/18.
Mostly clear, glowing honey-orange-apricot. White head fading steadily to ring.
Melon, peach, floral/potpourri give a good mix of standard NE IPA notes (tropical fruit, juice) with some spicier, earthy and floral notes mixed in for good measure and complexity. It's not yeasty (fruity, bubblegummy) nor does it have the rich, honeyed, mango-lime juice. So probably not really going for a classic NE IPA, which is fine. Still interesting stuff here. No resin or alcohol, nor flaw.
In mouth it's soft, lightly watery with spicy black tea, orange rind and lightly bitter, perfume-like notes through the middle. Needs a bit more malt and/or juicy, flavorful hop, as it's a bit thin, bland and specialty malt-heavy.
