Question 2

Jack’s Abby Calyptra

Answer 2

Framingham, MA
India Pale Session Lager
ABV: 4.9%

This hoppy lager is brewed with two intense and aromatic hops, Calypso and Citra. It’s an easy drinking brew that balances dominating fruity, citrusy, and tropical aromas with a sessionable malt body.

Question 3

Maine Beer Co. Peeper

Answer 3

Freeport, ME
Pale Ale
ABV: 5.5%

An American-style ale brewed one barrel at a time. The malt bill is built on American two-row malt and accented by crystal 10, Vienna, and white wheat malts. Magnum hops give the beer a nice clean bittering and Amarillo, Cascade, and Centennial hop varieties provide a pleasant floral and citrusy hop flavor. A healthy dose of additional Amarillo and Centennial are dry hopped to give this beer an inviting hop aroma. The beer is fermented with a neutral yeast strain and allowed to dry out so it finishes crisp and clean.

Note: Formerly known as Spring Peeper.

Question 4

Mystic Saison Renaud

Answer 4

Chelsea, MA
Farmhouse Ale
ABV: 6.5%

Clean and crisp body, the spicy and fruity esters of the yeast prevail over a slight earthy bitterness from the Saaz.

Question 5

Cisco Grey Lady

Answer 5

Nantucket, MA
Belgian Style Witbier
ABV: 4.5%

Named for the often foggy island where it is brewed. This wheat beer is fermented with Belgian yeast and brewed with fresh fruit and spices. A unique ale that emits a complex, earthy nose and a soft, mid-palate maltiness with hints of tropical fruit. Dry and spicy.

Question 6

Ballast Point Sculpin

Answer 6

San Diego, CA
Indian Pale Ale
ABV: 7%

Hints of apricot, peach, mango and lemon.
Brewer’s Notes: After years of experimenting, we knew hopping an ale at five separate stages would produce something special. The result ended up being this gold-medal winning IPA, whose inspired use of hops creates hints of apricot, peach, mango and lemon flavors, but still packs a bit of a sting, just like a Sculpin fish.

Question 7

Avery Brewing Co. Joe’s Pils

Answer 7

Boulder, CO
American Pilsner
ABV: 4.7%

A contemporary rendition of a classic style, Joe’s is hopped with purpose: beautifully bitter and dry with an abundance of floral, Noble German hops.
