Description
Throwback Brewery is a small, inspired brewery dedicated to crafting delicious, farm-fresh beer & food from local ingredients. Our brewery and pub are located within a picturesque and meticulously renovated 1860s post & beam barn in North Hampton, NH. Our 12-acre farm- Hobbs Farm- includes a hop yard, young fruit orchard, kitchen & brewery garden, heirloom chickens, and a beer garden overlooking the field.

Given the greenery and peaceful setting of the farm, you would never know that we are conveniently located right off of Route 1 and less than three and a half miles from the beach!

Since we got started in a small warehouse space in July of 2011, our vision at Throwback has been and continues to be all about crafting beer from ingredients grown within 200 miles of us. With the opening of our restaurant in July of 2015 and the move to Hobbs Farm, we have committed to these same sourcing philosophies and love & care in crafting our food as we do our beer.
In our kitchen, everything is made from scratch using the freshest of local ingredients from surrounding farms and New England businesses. For example, the eggs in our Fried Eggs BLTs come from our farm, and all the bread is made from scratch in our kitchen using spent grain from our brewing process. We are proud to serve such fresh and tasty food (and beer!) to our family, friends, and to you, our great customers.

Cheers

Co-founders, Throwback Brewery

One of the best beer names I’ve seen. Named after the white donkey Jericho that came with the farm the brewer just bought: http://hampton-northhampton.patch.com/articles/30-seconds-with-jericho#video-14128754 Draft at the source. Hazy bright golden amber color, fluffy white head. Aroma of tropical fruit, citrus, light pine. Taste is fruity, sweet and sticky, balanced, bitter dry finish. Very nice.

Draft at the source. Murky yellow color, white head. Aroma of fruity and sour citrus. Taste is spiced grapefruit and tangy bitter fruit. Tasty.

32 oz. growler from the Brewery. Shared with friends at Adam Jackson’s Beer BBQ on 2/27/2013. Dark brown color with blackness in the center. Thin short lived head. Average aroma of chocolate, roast and hints of coffee in the nose. Much better roasted malt then the nose would lead you to believe. Coffee and light traces of chocolate. Mildly sweet finish. The one negative is the body is thin and really needs more depth. Other than that it is decent.

Draft @ Thirsty Moose, Portsmouth, NH. Deep unclear, dirty amber in color with thick white head. Taste of roasted grain, and a very light Amarillo hops, with the rye being noticed near the finish. I don’t get spiciness. However, I get lots of roasted grain and caramel malt. A nice creamy mouthfeel that makes it easy to drink. Solid session beer.

22 oz. bottle from the Brewery. Peanut husk after a freshly cracked nut. The mouthfeel is a little thin yet , I will give it points on the unique factor. Coco powder, big time peanuts with a lot of peanut skins. This could be improved with some oat meal flakes for thickness. Needs more roasted barley.My biggest compliant is the body. Really needs more body. But as I sip it it kind of really grows on me. The peanut is a major influence no what.

4 oz. taster @ the brewery on 23 Feb 2013. Dark brown color with tiny pieces of beets floating around in the liquid. Smells a lot like cooked beets and chocolate. Taste is like stout added to red beet juice. I love this brewery but this one just didn’t really do it for me. The vegetables in my stout was just really bizarre. Yet the woman at Throwback get a few points for creativity.

64 oz. growler that sat a week in my fridge before sharing with friends. Dark brown pour with spotty white lace down my English pint glass. Nose is light mint on top of chocolate malt. Texture is chalky. Chocolate malt is silky and smooth. Mint is a subtle nuance. Pretty straight forward. Nice stout.

32 oz. “Growlette” from the brewery poured yesterday at 3 pm. English pint shows deep brown with small ring of head. Nose is a tantalizing chocolate, roasted grain and chocolate. Oatmeal gives a nice chewy, medium body. Grain is at the forefront of the flavors with oatmeal and light chocolate near the end of the sip. Well made stout.

4 oz. taster at the brewery. Gold color with light retention in the taster. Nose is light grain and weak hops. Flavor is grain, corn husk and light hoppy presence in the back end. Lightly grassy. Finish is clean and crisp. Lighter bodied, as expected, with a decent level of carbonation. Follow the right path for the style.
