Based on the overwhelmingly positive response from drinkers, New England’s leading independent craft brewer, Samuel Adams, is giving fans another reason to join the “haze craze”: a juicy, hazy beer called New England Pale Ale. Like Sam Adams’ original New England IPA, the new beer is rich in flavor, and balanced for easy drinking with friends.
New England Pale Ale was born in the Sam Adams Nanobrewery in Boston, but unlike most New England style beers, it is brewed with hops sourced all the way from the Hallertaü region of Germany, known for being one of the premier hop growing regions in the world. While most brewers who have tackled this style before use all American hops, Sam Adams brewers searched the globe to find hops with the right citrus profile to amplify the beer. By adding three new generation German varieties – Mandarina, Mellon, and Blanc – to Mosaic and Citra, the brewers push the juicy, orange flavors further for a more drinkable beer.
