Cape May

One of CMBC's most-anticipated Double IPAs will soon be available in 16-ounce
tallboys! Snag and Drop -- a dank and resinous lupulin-laden beast -- will be
available in stores by the end of January. With hints of pine and orange citrus in
the background, this alluring Triple IPA is packed to the gills with some of our
stickiest and most pungent hops. Snag & Drop is waiting to lure you in and snag
you like a trophy fish. Look for it soon!

Spellbound

Spellbound fresh off a Great American Beer Fest Gold medal win (wood aged
category) has released cans of Porter aged on Palo Santo Wood. The cans are
available as four packs and cases in the tasting room & select liquor stores. The
beer is 6.9% ABV with notes of chocolate, coconut, anise, and roasty malt.

They have just installed a new grain silo which will hold upwards of 40000 lbs of
grain, save a few pennies and back pain from loading 50lb bags.

Bradley Brew Project

Things have really picked up at Bradley Brew Project! We are a month into our
construction and critical infrastructure updates have been completed. We’ve
begun to work through detailed plans for our taproom and rolled out Crowler
information. Recently, we’ve received lots of love at our online merchandise store
(bradleybrew.com/merchandise) – words can’t describe our appreciation, thank
you to all of our supporters! We’re on track for opening in early 2018 – we can’t
wait to pour you a beer. Cheers!

Tun Tavern

Double Dry Hopped Ekuanot IPA | 6.4% abvThis beer is brewed with a simple
grain bill of pilsner and flaked oats to let the hop flavors really come through.
Hopped heavily in the whirlpool with simcoe and amarillo hops, dry hopped
generously during active fermentation with more simcoe, then again, heavily
with ekuanot hops. Hopped at a rate of 3 pounds per barrel. This beer pours
bright yellow with a nice haze. Less bitter than a traditional IPA with flavors
of citrus and tropical fruits.
