From Cape May Brewing:
Hold on to your pints — Cape May Brewing Company is releasing five new beers this month.
They are:
Cornelius: Named after Dutch sea captain Cornelius Jacobsen Mey, who sailed around Jersey’s peninsula in 1621 and dubbed the tip ‘Cape Mey’ (quickly misspelled as ‘Cape May’), this hop-heavy and oh-so aromatic IPA has a strong citrus nose, but little bitterness. Amber is the color of its energy. On tap now.
Crusty Barnacle: This 6.3% pale ale is brewed with oats, which make for greater head retention, a creamier mouthfeel, and an altogether pillowy beer. Expect exotic tropical notes of papaya and pineapple. On tap beginning March 10.
Misty Dawn: What used to be CMBC’s signature Cape May Saison has gone through a rebrand. Renamed for the wooden boat formerly owned and later scutted by the family of CMBC co-owner Ryan Krill, this brew is fruity and spicy with an earthy aroma, thanks to coriander, sweet orange peel, and lots of Saaz hops in the kettle. The original Misty Dawn may have sunk off the coast of Cape May, but this beer is sure to float your boat. On tap beginning March 17.
Brett’d Coastal: For this brew, CMBC aged for three months in French oak red wine barrels their Double IPA called Coastal Evacuation, which earned a silver medal in Oregon’s Best of Craft Beer Awards. While the beer lost some bitterness to the barrels, it was spiked with the wild-child yeast strain called brettanomyces for a more funky, rustic character. Think of it as catnip for craft beer nerds. On tap beginning March 24.
Foreshore Shandy: This 5% cherry, limeade brew is sweet and tart. It’s also refreshing – sort of like spring at the shore, after a long, snowy winter. On tap beginning March 31.
