Elm Park is a local favorite for running, dog walking, ice skating, and wedding photography on the popular pond bridge. We brewed Elm Park Amber as a tribute to our favorite local park. An American Amber Alemade solely from Chinook hops. The beer is amber in color with a mildly spicy nose that is complimented by a complex maltiness from 8 different grains. Medium hop bitterness with spicy citrus qualities is washed over with malt complexity and sweetness, spearheaded by light caramel and bready tones.

75 I.B.U.'s

"Dark Day refers to an event that occurred on May 19, 1780, when an unusual darkening of the day sky was observed over the New England states and parts of Canada. The darkness was so complete that candles were required from noon on." Dark Day IPA is a collaboaration with Dave Richardson from Gardner Ale House. Herbal hop aroma is complimented with roasted malt character. American de-husked roasted barley does not lend a bitter acrid flavor but imparts a roasted character that melds with low level caramelized malts. Big herbal, citrus hop flavors and bitterness clash with roasted and mildly sweet malt. Try Dark Day IPA and then drive to Gardner to try its sister brew Nightcrawler IPA.
