MAST LANDING SHAKE UP YOUR BONES IMPERIAL IPA
On tap at Taphouse 15, zestful double dry-hopped IPA lets perfumed citrus spicing pervade mild oated wheat base. Bitter yellow grapefruit-peeled lemon liming, white grape esters, salted mango-pineapple tang and peachy papaya tease (from expressive Citra-Nelson Sauvin hops) brighten alongside gentle piney Simcoe hop dryness.
MAST LANDING CHAMP LAGER
Classic straw yellow cleared pale lager with musky sour mash pungency mildly penetrating lemony hop briskness and light lemongrass minting over musty white-breaded pilsner malting. Fine easygoing lager fodder.
MAST LANDING PARTY TRICK STOUT W/ CHOCOLATE & TOASTED COCONUT
Cocoa powdered coconut milkiness compromised by earthen peat murk as smoked maple molasses and musky dried fruiting waver above sour rye breading for underwhelming, stylishly obtuse stout.
MAST LANDING TWO WEEKS FROM EVERYWHERE CORN LAGER
On tap at Kitchen & Beer Bar, straightforward yellow-cleared corn lager spreads lemon rotted orange tartness and gentle herbage above corn flaked mineral graining in pithy pilsner malt setting.
MAST LANDING IMPERIAL GUNNER’S DAUGHTER
On tap at Taphouse 15, “decadent” amped up Gunner’s Daughter gains richer chocolate nougat center, deeper espresso-milked black coffee tones and subtler peanut buttering than original version. Beyond the nutty mocha insistence, caramelized banana, bourbon vanilla, hazelnut paste and Nutella illusions further sweeten impressive milk stout.
MAST LANDING / HOP BUTCHER ALL KINDS OF WAVES NEW ENGLAND IPA
On tap at Kitchen & Beer Bar, durable Massachusetts/Maine NEIPA collab serenades lemony orange-peeled pineapple, peach and grapefruit tang with lacquered pine tones and floral-spiced pale malts. Lacks sour guava-gooseberry tropicality of slightly better stylistic New England moderations.
MAST LANDING SINCERELY YOURS BARLEYWINE
On tap at Ambulance, lovely bourbon barrel aged barleywine sashays luscious ‘whiskey, rum and sherry’ subtleties thru toffee-spiced brown chocolate sweetness, gaining bourbon vanilla, bruised black cherry, buttered pecan and candied butterscotch illusions for spirited 13% ABV elixir.
MAST LANDING / HOOF HEARTED HOW’S YER CAPACITY NOW? DOUBLE IPA
Easygoing clear straw double dry-hopped IPA collaboration with Hoof Hearted utilizes limey pink guava and grapefruit adjuncts for clean entry. Slight gin-soaked agave influence adds to the well hidden 8.5% ABV.
MAST LANDING PLOYE DIVISION NITRO MAPLE BUCKWHEAT BALTIC PORTER
On tap at Growler & Gill, creamily fudged mahogany-hued nitro porter resounds as smoky maple-sugared buckwheat pancake battering enjoins pastry-caked cookie dough richness of sweet breakfast treat. Nitrogenation provides smooth flow for otherwise syrupy molasses-like seduction. Ancillary glazed chocolate donut, chocolate babka, cocoa nibs and vanilla illusions broaden scope even further.
MAST LANDING DOUBLE DRY-HOPPED TELL TALE PALE ALE
Casually unassuming and likably straightforward, dry-hopped moderation never goes out of its way to be anything other than a world class pale ale. Sunny yellow grapefruit tang, zesty lemon spritz, brisk navel orange sweetness and pale malt spicing contrast dank pine resin in crisply clean mineral water setting. Mild peach, mango, tangerine and guava tropicalia provides further depth.
MAST LANDING GUNNER’S DAUGHTER MILK STOUT
Rich peanut-buttered dark chocolate template receives Cocoa Puffs, black coffee, molasses bread and seared walnut illusions reinforced by moderate hop char. Not unlike a liquid Reece’s Pieces candy bar, though its fluffy carbolic frisk thins out some of its peanut butter resonance. Competition for admirable peanut-buttered porter, Duclaw’s Sweet Baby Jesus!
