Established in 1985 (company) and 1997 (brewery). After years as a contract
brewing company, Boston Beer Company acquired its Cincinnati brewery
in 1997 (and therefore has its festival credentials as a Midwest brewer!).
The brewery has a 200-bbl brewhouse and an annual capacity of 800,000
bbls. The Cincinnati brewery brews about 2/3 of the company’s beer after a
recent $6 million expansion. Winner of more than 200 international awards.
Nationwide distribution.
Verloren – Gose: 6% ABV, 9 SRM, 15 IBU’s. A link to the ales of Saxony that have all
but vanished, Gose is a peculiar yet captivating brew. From a base of an unfiltered
wheat ale, it’s light and refreshing yet also has a softness to it. The flavor is brought
to life by an unexpected touch of salt for a mineral quality, and coriander for a
peppery spice. The result is an unusual and delicate brew that’s full of flavors to
discover.
Norse Legend – Sahti: 7%ABV, 25 SRM, 25 IBU’s. Legend has it that barrels of this
ancient brew were found on sunken Viking ships. This Nordic ale took root in Finland
becoming one of the oldest continuously brewed styles. Deep amber in color, this
rugged brew’s distinctive aroma and flavor comes from aging on a bed of juniper
berries. The herbal, woodsy, and ripe citrus character of the juniper enlivens a sturdy
and smooth malt backbone for a fresh and flavorful brew.
Griffin’s Bow – Oaked Blonde Barleywine: 10% ABV, 12 SRM, 45 IBUs.
Golden in color and wine-like. Flavors of honeysuckle and grapefruit are layered
with toffee, vanilla, and the distinct character of toasted oak. This unique take on
a barleywine surprises with its smoothness and balance of fruit, hop citrus, and
warming strength.
Tasman Red: Red IPA. 6.75% ABV, 80 IBUs, 40 SRM. Bold and lively with the grapefruit,
piney, and earthy character of Tasmanian hops balanced by a smooth and roasty
malt backbone with hints of toffee. This flavorful brew is rounded and smooth with a
dry and citrusy hop finish.
Dark Depths: Baltic IPA. 7.6% ABV, 55 IBUs, 60 SRM. Dark, and fierce, this English
porter was transformed, from a mild ale to a dark and complex lager that confounds
definition. Immersed in dark, roasted malts and a bold citrus hop character, these big
and contrasting flavors are brought together with the smoothness of a lager for a
brew that’s rugged, mysterious, and full of flavor.
Sam Adams Boston Lager: 4.9% v/v. Full-bodied and complex. Malty sweetness
balanced with distinct citrus, pine, and spicy notes. A strong, smooth finish and
mouthfeel.
Samuel Adams Octoberfest: 5.4% v/v. Celebrate the arrival of autumn. This
hearty lager is rich a blend of four malts, carefully balanced with hand selected
Noble Bavarian hops. The rich, deep golden amber hue of Samuel Adams Octoberfest
is reflective of the season. Primarily malty, slightly fruity with medium bitterness.
Sam Adams Light: 4.05% v/v. Smooth, rich, clean, and complex malt character ranges
from roasty to sweet. A subtle hop note reminiscent of mango and apricot.
Angry Orchard Crisp Apple: . 5% ABV. This crisp and refreshing cider mixes
the sweetness of the apples with a subtle dryness for a balanced cider taste. The
fresh apple aroma and slightly sweet, ripe apple flavor make this cider hard to resist.
Angry Orchard Apple Ginger: 5% ABV. Unlike any cider you’ve had before, the
fresh ginger and apple flavors blend together for a sweet, yet slightly tart taste with
a distinct ginger aroma. The result is a smooth, refreshing cider that goes down easy.
Angry Orchard Traditional Dry: 5.5% ABV. This is made in the style of
English draft ciders. This cider is bittersweet and slightly spicy with a bright apple
aroma. The dryness makes you pucker and look forward to another sip.
