Rock Art White Tail Ale

Parker Pie Co. — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 22:40:51 +0000

Our golden American ale has a crisp body and slightly dry, hoppy finish. This is a real treat for the beer lover. Pale, wheat and torrified wheat malts are used with Northern Brewer and Mt. Hood hops.

Switchback

Parker Pie Co. — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 20:50:34 +0000

Using only traditional ingredients, Switchback Ale is a reddish-amber ale which is particularly well-balanced, allowing for complexity of flavor coupled with an unusually smooth and refreshing character. Five different malts, select hop varieties, and our own specially cultivated yeast create an ale which leads with hop flavors and a subtle impression of fruit (our yeast’s contribution), followed by a palate pleasing malty finish. Our own special process uses the yeast to naturally carbonate the beer, and we leave it unfiltered. The result is a satisfying brew full of flavor with a remarkably clean and smooth finish. This ale contains 5.0% alcohol by volume. IBU 28.

Founder’s Red’s Rye PA

Parker Pie Co. — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 01:24:41 +0000

Serious hop bitterness, along with an unyielding grapefruit bouquet from the Amarillo dry hop, balances the malty richness of four varieties of imported Belgian caramel malts. Pours a spectacular crimson with a creamy tan head. A generous addition of rye malt accentuates a spicy, crisp finish.

Hill Farmstead Edward

Edward (1917-2002) is our grandfather; Hill Farmstead Brewery rests upon the land that was once home to him and his five children. In his honor, this American Pale Ale is dutifully crafted from American malted barley, a plethora of American hops, our ale yeast and water from Edward’s well. It is unfiltered, naturally carbonated, and dry hopped. Aromatic and flowery, with impressions of citrus and pine, this is the ale that I dream to have shared with Edward.

Anchor Porter is a unique dark brew, which was introduced by Anchor in the early 1970s. Anchor Porter, like all of Anchor Brewing Company‘s products, is brewed with only natural ingredients. Specially roasted dark malts are used, along with a top-fermenting yeast. The brew is hopped at a very high rate, and is naturally carbonated to produce an intensely rich flavor and thick creamy head. -from anchorbrewing.com

“See the man on the stage with the guitar. The one with the perpetual five days scruff on his face and the not so clean flannel shirt. The one with the Martin guitar who’s belting out a song about mountains or rivers or roads. See the sardonic look on his face? It’s not for long, he’s just into his song. As soon as he’s finished singing you’ll see a smile bloom on his face when he realizes that he’s one of the few people who’ve found what they’re made for and is doing it for a living. He plays music.” from paulcataldo.com

Ommegang Witte

Parker Pie Co. — Fri, 17 Feb 2012 23:31:20 +0000

Ommegang Witte is our take on a Belgian-white, or Witbier. Witte is brewed with malted and unmalted wheat, barley malt, a light hops addition and spiced with sweet orange peel and coriander. Though adding a slice of citrus fruit is common while enjoying a wheat or Wiess beer, we feel that Witte’s gentle spicing and slight tartness renders the fruit superfluous.

Allagash Curieux

Parker Pie Co. — Tue, 14 Feb 2012 22:56:15 +0000

Allagash Curieux was the first foray into barrel aging. Curieux is made by aging our Tripel Ale in Jim Beam bourbon barrels for eight weeks in our cold cellars. The aged beer is then blended back with a portion of fresh Tripel. The resulting beer is soft with coconut and vanilla notes, with hints of bourbon.
