Description
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.

Pours amber with a white head. Aroma of pine and citrus with light melon notes layered within. Taste has woody resin notes with a light smattering of citrus. Palate is full of a ton of different hop notes, fascinating mix of pine and grape vine followed by light guava and an herbal finish. Very dry malt base. Aptly described.

Roast and coffee with some mocha. Plenty of booze. Decent but not something amazing. Black pour with ok mocha head. Boozy sweet finish with bitter aftertaste. A little off balance. Can.
