More on Stowaway per the brewery:

Bold, complex flavors with a solid malt backbone and assertive hop profile, along with cold conditioning, give this beer its crisp, clean, hoppy finish.

Technical Specifications:

  • A proprietary blend of North American 2-row malted barley, including barley grown in Northern Maine’s Aroostook County
  • Domestic and imported “Character” malts provide complexity, color and body
  • 5 different hops varieties grown in the Pacific Northwest
  • Double dry-hopped during fermentation and conditioning
  • Clean, well attenuating, top-fermenting American ale yeast
  • Pure, soft water from Lake Auburn, Maine

6.9% ABV
69 IBU’s

Flavor Profile:

Deep amber-to-orangish in color; pours with a nice, creamy head; huge hop aroma of citrus, pine and grapefruit rind notes with a big, complex, and intense hop flavor that lingers for a very long time. The malt flavor up-front turns dry and crisp; full bodied and a dry finish with a pleasant, long lasting, hop aftertaste and beautiful lace left in the glass. Stowaway leaves you wanting more.

Bridgeport Hop Harvest 2011

Bridgeport  Brewing’s Hop Harvest 2011 is on shelves.  Fresh hop lovers will love the juicy hop flavors in this American IPA.

IN A WORD… HOPULENT! Bushels of fresh hops in every batch… any fresher and you’d have to pick them yourself.  This triple hopped, imperial style ale gets its most important ingredient from Willamette Valley aroma hops. Caramel malt joins forces with a touch of wheat to produce a deep amber color with a cloudy veil.  The result is an ale that will turn even the most pretentious hop fans jolly.  

Style: American IPA (fresh hopped)
Taste Expectations:  Citrus hops, fresh and chewy. Followed by a nice caramel backbone.
Availability: 22oz bombers. Fall seaonal.

6.56% ABV
