3 Craft Brews to Help You Celebrate Spring [SPONSORED]
Two reasons you should love living in the northeast: the change of seasons and great local brews.
Since the spring season is taking her sweet time to ramp up this year, here are a few unique choices that will get you in the warm weather mood.
- 1
Captain Lawrence Effortless Grapefruit IPA
The only “effortless” thing about this beer is how it drinks. Domestic and imported malts take a backseat to the loads of American grown hops that are dumped into the kettle. Dry-hopped for a mouthwatering aroma with Mosaic and Palisade hops. Enjoy an effortless drinking experience with this session IPA. 4.5% ABV
- 2
Ithaca Happy Pils
Brilliantly clear and refreshing, this German Pilsner boasts a healthy amount of spicy noble Germans hops, and a dynamic, yet restrained malt backbone. Happy Pils is bound to bring a smile to any craft beer lover’s face. 5% ABV
- 3
Otter Creek Citra Mantra
This spring seasonal offering is brewed with 100 percent positive vibrations and single-hopped with Citra hops. The presence of the Citra hop is elevated by a clean fermenting lager yeast that allows the subtle Pilsner, Munich and Vienna malts to lay a crisp, bready foundation. The citrus and tropical fruit character of the Citra hop comes from kettle additions followed by a huge dose of ‘em again in the fermenter. 5.8%
