Long hammer embraces the IPA tradition of a strong hop profile while remaining approachable and easy to drink with its smooth flavor and clean finish.
"Amber color. Bread crust like nose with notes of caramel and sweet nougat. Soft and frothy on the palate. Malt notes of nougat, nuts, and fresh baked dark rye bread. Balances nicely against the clean slightly citrus kiss from the hops. A well put together session beer to try with grilled sausages and peppers. 89 points" Beverage Testing Institute
"Amber color. Toasted buttered rye and pork rind aromas. Round entry dry medium body. Dry roasted toasted grain, brown butter, and baked citrus flavors with a note of seared meat. Crisp refreshing roasted nut and tart apple peel accented finish. Good flavor and character, especially for the light beer. 90 points" Beverage Testing Institute
"Deep amber color. Spicy toffee cake and honey granola aromas follow through on a soft, supple entry to a dry-yet-fruity medium-to-full body with toasted rye bread and baked pear notes. Finishes with a pleasantly dry and astringent, cocoa-dusted citrus and spiced nut fade. Exceptional balance and drinkable; pair with spicy grilled pork and blackened chicken. 90 points" Beverage Testing Institute
