Battle Road Brew House - Review


Took a pit stop while driving on a Sunday afternoon and found this gem hidden in the small town of Maynard, MA. Many of you might of heard of this brew house, but this was a first for me. I was eager to order a beer once I read they were brewed in house, and to say the least I was not disappointed.

The drink I choose was the Midnight Rider Porter (yes, I did order it for the name). The beer was described to have "wisps of campfire smoke and coffeehouse aromatics" as well as "a touch of molasses and a hearty amount of flaked maize".

The flavor was rich and dark with hints of espresso, making it a coffee lovers dream. Not to mention the southern style BBQ was killer, and a perfect combo for any craft beer (considering they have 9 in house brewed beer to offer, there's an option for everyone). Maynard's a bit away from Boston, but Battle Road is worth the day trip for beer enthusiasts.

Foam Brewers Fantastically Crafted Double IPA. Burlington, Vermont

Image
Took a trip to Burlington Vermont this past weekend and visited an amazing craft brewery called Foam Brewers .  This brewery is located right on Lake Champlain in Burlington with a great waterfront view.  I am a massive fan of Double IPAs and fortunately for me Foam Brewers had a impeccable one on tap called Mountain Energy . This delightful Double IPA packed a punch at 9% ABV and had delicious notes of citrus, ripe papaya, and dank.  Mountain Energy gave off an aroma of fruity dank hops.  It was medium bodied, and had an initial blended taste of a few different fruits such as ripe papaya, pineapple, and grapefruit.  The after taste gave a refreshing dank bitter finish.  I would absolutely recommend giving the Mountain Energy a try but it is a rotating craft beer so make sure to check before you go!  #I'dTapThat

Sam Adams' Most Expensive Beer EVER!

Image
    Picture Credited to Sam Adams' website    It's only released every two years. Brewed by the Boston-based Sam Adams. Sam Adams has recently announced the release of this one-of-a-kind, biennial brew, by the name of Utopias. This year will be the 10th release of this one of a kind barrel-aged beer! It is said that they are the pioneers in the barrel aging process, which is now common practice throughout the industry. Some of the batches they are releasing have been aged up to 24 years!    Other than being offered in the awesome containers this brew is quite unique. According to Sam Adams, "It is brewed with  a special blend of two-row pale malt combined with Munich and Caramel 60 malts that impart a rich, ruby color. Three varieties of German Noble hops – Spalt Spalter, Hallertau Mittelfrueh, and Tettnang Tettnanger – are added to balance the sweetness of the malt. After the beer is brewed, the first proprietary brewing method begins – adding sp...

Sam Adams is finally opening a taproom!

Image
BOSTON – For years, the Samuel Adams Brewery in Jamaica Plain was one of the top tourist destinations in Boston, with millions of people visiting each year. But, one thing was missing – you couldn’t enjoy a pint of your favorite Samuel Adams beer. They only allowed samples. That has now changed. Last week, Samuel Adams opened its brand-new taproom at its 30 Germania St. brewery. Now visitors can tour the brewery, taste samples and drink full pints or flights of several of their favorite brews. “It’s awesome. It’s a great space,” said Brewery Manager Jennifer Glanville. ” I really designed the space I want to hang out in. I hang out at a lot of taprooms. This has a lot of casual seating, communal tables. Shuffleboard. We’ll have food trucks. We want people to help determine what’s in here.” The taproom is next to the retail store inside the brewery. It opens to the beer garden. The taproom holds up to 80 people comfortably and, when weather allows, the beer garden can seat ...
