About this beer
This is the 2nd of 7 labels we have from Shipyard Brewing Co. It is one of 91 fruit beer labels approved in February 2019. Its label was approved 37 days after it was submitted. The label names 3 hops — Summit, Tettnang and Cascade.
From the label“Smashed Blueberry is a hybrid between a Porter and a Scotch Ale. This beer has a rich mouth feel and a body of complex intensity. Up front, there are notes of coffee and chocolate beautifully accentuated by the aroma of blueberries. The finish features a delicate balance of sweet fruit and dry hops. To fully enjoy all the flavors, the ale is best drunk at 55 degrees Fahrenheit.”
