BentSpoke Brewing has announced their latest packaged beer release, the Summer IPA; ???Sprocket???, a big and hoppy brew with raw, tropical fruit, sniffs and tastes.
Malted barley is at the heart of the beer making process. When we're done with the mash here at BentSpoke our friends at the Quatre Saisons Farm take it away to feed to their pigs. This Saturday three of those pigs are coming back to BentSpoke to feed the public coming to our Start of Spring Party at BentSpoke's Mitchell Cannery.
Signs of spring are stirring amidst the cold bluster of winter. The wattle is out, the days are getting longer, the fruit trees are blossoming. And BentSpoke has put on a new saison.
Today, Thursday August 3, is World IPA day. To celebrate we're launching a New England IPA called "Stratus". It's cloudy and full of juicy hops but, unlike others in the style, we've kept it hazy rather than murky.
