Do
you know when you're approaching the legal limit? Does just one
beer put you near that limit? Two? Three? To separate the facts
from folklore, the Brewers Association has developed an estimated blood alcohol content calculator to help you
understand the relationship between consumption and BAC.

"Full-bodied
and malty with undertones of coffee and chocolate and a bright,
hoppy finish, in style it's like Cary Grant's accent: the best
of British and American." - The Boston Globe, describing Smuttynose
Robust Porter, November, 2005
Writing
in the Weekly Dig about 2004's
beer highlights,
Jason and Todd Alström had this to say about our IPA: "Hands-down
one of the best American-style India Pale Ales ever crafted.
This brew is lip smacking, with an aggressive and pungent grapefruit
hop character. Wonderfully balanced and insanely drinkable."
"Shoals
Pale Ale is the closest thing to an English ale in an American
bottled beer."
THE BOSTON GLOBE - September, 1999
| Vegetarians, please take note: Smuttynose
beers are made without the use of any animal products,
such as isinglass or gelatin. Why? Because we prefer it
that way, and we're sure you do, too, so enjoy! |
