Misty Mountain IPA 6pcan $9.99
Originally brewed for sailors on shipping routes between England and India, British IPAs are known for their strong hop bitterness, which were added as a preservative for the long voyage. The American adaptation is decidedly stronger and offers a more robust hop bite. Back East IPA is no exception. This assertively hopped beer has a great hoppy aroma, crisp hop bite, and smooth medium body.

Summer Ale 6pcan $9.99
Back East Summer Ale is light in color, slightly cloudy, and delicate in body but packed with hoppy goodness.  Brewed and dry-hopped with a blend Citra, Galaxy, and Simcoe hops, it is assertively hopped but not overly bitter, yet bursts with fruity, spicy, and herbal hop overtones.

Ale 6pcan $9.69
Our Flagship offering, Back East Ale is a medium-bodied amber ale. This amber-colored beer features a subtle fruity aroma with hints of vanilla and peach. It has a smooth malt character that is nicely balanced with just a slight hop bitterness and a clean, crisp finish with subtle notes of caramel. Once you taste this favorite, we're sure you'll be reaching for another "Back East"!


Intergalactic Lupulinary India Pale Ale 6pcan $11.99
Showcasing Galaxy hops from New Zealand, Intergalactic Lupulinary features a juicy hop flavor and aroma.  Brewed with a lighter malt base, hoppy notes of citrus and tropical fruit orbit the palate leaving a resinous but clean finish.
