Heather Ale
Brewed with aromatic barley malt, fresh, hand-harvested heather flowers were added to the kettle during the boil along with sweet gale and
lavender. The aroma and flavor are a surprising jog of ancient memory, with notes of heather honey, an obscure wildflower spiciness, and a
grace note of lavender, complemented by the interplay of mild but assertive, toasty-sweet malt. Special thanks to our friends at Sylvan
Nurseries in beautiful Westport, MA for allowing us to harvest their blossoming heather! Slainte!

BELGIAN-STYLE STRONG ALE
Considerably less ethanol-charged that our well-known Tripel Threat, this beer could be considered a “summertime tripel.” Brewed to a similar recipe but yielding a lighter body and slightly lower alcohol, Petit Mort Tripel offers hints of citrus and spice above bready malt and plenty of glorious Belgian-yeast complexity.

Bavarian-style Weizenbier mit hefe
CBC’s widely renowned wheat beer returns for its annual summer-long run! Brewed with pilsner and wheat malts, it is lightly hopped and
fermented with an unique Bavarian ale yeast which lends a tart palate, fruity acidity, and faint spiciness to the beer. Its natural cloudiness is
due both to the malted wheat and the yeast, which stays suspended in this unfiltered brew. Very effervescent, with a nicely dry finish, this
traditional brew will be available thru Labor Day. Cheers!

Barrel-aged Imperial Stout
Imperial Stout is a variety of British stout brewed considerably richer and stronger than the norm. Originally crafted for export to czarist
Russia, Catherine the Great, among others, was a known enthusiast. It is rich, roasty, srong, smooth, and dark, dark, dark. This expression of
YouEnjoyMyStout was brewed in Spring 2007, and has since whiled away the days in a quintet of American bourbon barrels. The complexities
added by tannins, oxidation, and oak character complement the malt notes of caramel, bitter chocolate, and espresso-roast, finishing with a
long, alcohol-tinged palate.

Summer Barleywine
This chardonnay barrel-aged barleywine aspires to change the way you think of strong beer. Intended for sipping on sultry summer evenings, it Is light and drinkable yet boasts significant body, syrupy smooth in texture without being cloying. Our 2008 expression boasts complex notes of concentrated grape, peach, and apricot fruit, wildflower honey, and coconut oakiness, with a soft, tannin-hinted, white wine-like finish with a hint of green-apple tartness. The residual flavors contributed by the wood offer a mellowness of character not provided by stainless steel fermentation. Beheld in a simple stemmed glass and poured still, its flavors and aromas express kinship to both grain and grape.
