Description
OCB has been hitting, hopping and dosing brews with creativity since acid-washed jeans were hip — throwing a bit of kind into the kettle whenever possible. Look for our hop-soaked ales and delicious lagers around New England and the mid-Atlantic.

Acquired by Long Trail in 2010 with the brewing facility eventually sold to Whistle Pig. Currently operating as a brand owned and marketed by Harpoon.

Bottled. Pours brownish black with foamy beige head. Aroma is strong roasted bean, sweet malty taste, thin mouthfeel. Good stuff.

Draught from Spring Lounge. Poured a subtle dark, not a lot of head. Nice roastiness and hoppiness. I really like this style.

Nice aroma. Pours orangey of course. Lots of spice. I rather liked it but for some reason I just like all pumpkin ales.

Bottled. Poured a pale gold. Taste was pretty inoffensive even for a kolsch. Not much aroma or other stuff.
