What's the deal? For this beer we decided to test our growth as brewers, and what better beer to show that than Fog at Daybreak. The hop flavor you have come to expect from our sessionable pale turned into smooth DIPA. All the tropical resinous taste turned up a few notches.

Beer: Western Maryland Vacation Packages- Fruited Sour 6%

Release Date Wednesday, September 15, 2021

What's the deal? When we were down in Charlotte last year brewing with the homies from @heistbrewery, we told them they had to come up for the perfect getaway. They took us up on the offer and came to one of the most slept on destinations for travel, Western Maryland. This amazing vacation package featured heavy amounts of mango, delicious, sweet coconut, and all the bread pudding we could pack in. That's right, a mango coconut bread pudding sour, to show tribute to the classic Western Maryland dessert staple (not really a staple, but let's pretend). We had a blast working with Heist, and can't wait to hang out again and cook up our next one with them.

Fourscore Beer Co.

Beer: Signal In The Distance

Release Date: Saturday, September 18, 2021

What's the deal? Hazy DDH DIPA — 8.1% ABV

Brewed with a base of US 2 row barley, Carafoam, loads of flaked oats, local unmalted hard red wheat and flaked wheat. Hopped in the kettle with Citra and Citra Incognito and double dry hopped with Citra, Mosaic Lupomax and a brand new "liquid" dry hop product called Citra Spectrum. It pours a hazy goldenrod with aromas of tropical fruits including lychee, pineapple and ripe mango. The mouth feel is soft, juicy and extremely saturated with hop flavor without any green burn but just enough bitterness.

Beer: Penn Fest

Release Date: Saturday, September 18, 2021

What's the deal? All Local Ingredient Marzen — 6% ABV

Brewed with Pilsner, Vienna, Munich and Melanoidin malts from Deer Creek along with our own twist, a touch of their locally malted corn. Hopped entirely with Nugget hops from River Hills Hops. Clear copper colored and medium bodied with a crisp and clean finish. Intense, yet balanced flavors of toasted bread, caramel and brown sugar meld together perfectly from nearly 2 months of conditioning.

Beer: Jahmba

Release Date: Saturday, September 18, 2021

What's the deal? Raspberry/White Peach Bellini — 6% ABV

This draft only Jahmba has raspberry dominating with a great juicy white peach backbone. Sparkling white grape flavors bounce underneath all through and add a pleasant idea of a dry finish. The PERFECT brunch beer beverage!

Attaboy Beer

Beer: JUICEMASTER 5000

Release Date: Tuesday, September 14, 2021

What's the deal? Double New England IPA — 8.8% Bruh! The BEAST is back. Juicemaster 5000 our Double NEIPA is back at it. Juicier, hazier, and bro-ier than ever. It's been awhile since we've seen this bad boy, but don't worry, he's spent that time off perfecting his mirror selfie game, mastering the bicep double kiss with a single wink and a nod (that's a tough one), and making homemade deep armpit tanks. Nobody needs that. Nobody. But we want it. Bad. This 8.8% juice bomber is bursting with grapefruity and papaya goodness, super soft and luscious, a tidbit of bitterness and a lot bit of mayhem. Get in there!! Welcome to Gorilla Town.

Beer: THE CONTENDER

Release Date: Tuesday, September 14, 2021

What's the deal? New England IPA — 7.4% Ladies and gentleman, welcome to the main event. While Juicemaster is the bro of all bros, The Contender is the man of the hour. Weighing in at 7.4% and undefeated (mostly because it's his first day), this Frederick Maryland native is ready to claim the championship. The championship of well balanced, soft and luscious NEIPAs. This guy is tangeriney and crushable like Sunny D, with soft and luscious undertones of white wine grapes. He's a silky smooth operator.

Beer: RADNESS

Release Date: Tuesday, September 14, 2021

What's the deal? West Coast Double IPA — 8.3% Waaaapah! Been awhile since you've been pitted? Ya, us too. So get stoked-ola-ed for the return of Radness. Our latest West Coast DIPA is citrusy and uniquely peachy, with juniper forestry notes, and a crisp, classic finish and serious endless summer vibes. If you aren't rad now, slam a few of these rad boys and you might just get there.

Beer: FREDBRÄU

Release Date: Tuesday, September 14, 2021

What's the deal? Fest Bier — 5.9% Eins, zwei, drei, g'suffa! Velcome to de fest man! (Please proceed to read this in serious Hanz & Franz as we are super sure that is not offensive and probably pretty appreciated by most Germans.) Our Fest Bier, not to be confused with the Marzen style Oktoberfest is a pale lager modeled after the beer served at the modern day Oktoberfest in Munich. We prefer the lighter, more drinkable version as opposed to a malty amber lager. Zis party bier will have you eating giant pretzels and chicken dancing in no time.
