Fort Point - Peacharine Dry Hopped from Trillium Brewing Company

6 months ago

5.9/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 5 Flavor 5 Texture 8 Overall 5.5

On my palate, I got way more floral and bitterness and almost no citrus/stone fruits. I generally love Fort Point pale ales (even though they are high in ABV for a pale), but this one is not my favorite.

Now this is a New England Pale Ale. Citrus and tropical, smooth and enough bitterness to finish it off. A little light on body, but it's 5.3% ABV and punches well above its weight. Well done.

Good food and OK beer. The atmosphere is great, which keeps me coming back. There is something about their beers that just hits a little low for me. The food is good, but not great. I like self service, but the my cellphone reception in the building stinks so sometimes it is tough to order off my phone.

Is there a brewery in Massachusetts with a better combination of beer, food and atmosphere? In my opinion, no. I am not saying they are the best MASS brewery, but they really cannot be beat for selection of food and beer. They also have a full liquor license, so it is a nice place to meet my friends that are not as into craft beer as I am. Have gone and had full meals and other times just apps. Always have 10-14 of their own beers/seltzer and guest taps. This is my neighborhood brewery, but it is also my favorite.

Mas Verde from River Roost Brewery

7/10

Very smooth upfront, citrus in the middle and a savor finish (not dank, can't quite put my finger on the flavor profile on the finish).
