Ever Grain - The Beer Thrillers

Oh Ever Grain: 7 Years, 7 Beers

AmyMWolfe — Mon, 16 Oct 2023 01:05:00 +0000

Oh Ever Grain!

Oh Ever Grain! 7 Years, 7 Beers indeed! When Ever Grain Brewing posted about the 7 YEARS, 7 BEERS!! On Sept 22 I immediately shared the post with my boyfriend. He’d understand this beer message share was serious beyond the 500 others I already sent him that day. (LOL)

(The Evergrain Brewing post on Facebook – September 22nd)

We previously picked up the Veneration of the Dead in a Crowler from West Connection. (See our Instagram post here: West Connection Vault Haul). Before I could pop that bad boy open I tasted it when I visited Ever Grain Brewery to catch up with some friends. (See our Facebook reel here: Sunday Funday at Ever Grain Brewery.)

(Ben insertion: Ben also got to crack open a Veneration of the Dead crowler for his Ahsoka review video with his friends Drew and Tim over at Drew’s YouTube channel – Knights of Nostalgia. He drank it for their Episode 8 Review: The Jedi, The Witch, and the Warlord.)

Veneration of the dead comes rocking in with a 14.2% ABV. It has an average rating of 4.37 on Untapped. It is a Stout – Imperial/Double Pasty and described as “For our 7^th Anniversary, a rich and luxurious Imperial Stout aged extensively in apple brandy and bourbon barrels and then conditioned on toasted hazelnuts, cocoa nibs, whole vanilla beans and a touch of maple syrup. “

Looney Toons Chef Kiss

I remember feeling the urge to do the chef’s kiss after I read the description of Veneration of the dead. I mean who could blame me? We are just entering stout season and a 14.2% stout will keep me warm on these chilly fall nights. Let’s also keep in mind this isn’t just a strong stout. This stout was also aged in apple brandy AND bourbon barrels. Both!

Those flavors come barreling at you as you sip on this tasty stout. The smell of a strong stout hits your nose. You are preparing for the rich flavors of hazelnuts and cocoa nibs to start with. But before you can process that the apple brandy and bourbon barrel flavors roll over you and remind you this is a boozy little b*tch. At this this point when it comes to letting the dog outside the chilly evening air isn’t bothering you at all. I’m ready to finish this glass out while finishing out watching the Giants and the Bills. Cheers!

Hershey Bears and Ever Grain Brewing Team Up to Create Bear Claw Pale Lager

B. Kline — Fri, 13 Oct 2023 19:02:00 +0000

Ever Grain Brewing and Hershey Bears Team Up to Create Bear Claw Pale Lager

The Hershey Bears and Ever Grain Brewing announced today that they are teaming up to make Bear Claw Pale Lager. The lager will be sold in 19.2 oz cans at the GIANT Center at all of the home games of the Hershey Bears for the 2023 – 2024 season.

Bear Claw Pale Lager is a 5.5% ABV lager brewed by Ever Grain Brewing Company and is a limited release and will be sold at only the GIANT Center at all of their alcohol stands.

The Bears Den (part of the Hershey Lodge) as well as The Chocolatier (part of Hershey Park) will also sell it on draft.

Announcement

The Hershey Bears announcement:

The 2023 Calder Cup Champion Hershey Bears are pleased to announce in collaboration with Ever Grain Brewing Company the launch of Bear Claw Pale Lager.

Brewed with the choicest malts, Bear Claw Pale Lager is the new go-to for your game-time beverage. It contains a significant flavor of noble varieties, moderate bitterness, and is backed by a solid malt body and sweet notes from an all-malt base. The result is a cold, crisp, and refreshing beverage, just like the start of hockey season.

Bear Claw Pale Lager will be available at GIANT Center in 19.2 oz cans in time for the Bears 2023-24 home opener on Saturday, Oct. 14 vs. the Belleville Senators at any location where canned beverages are sold. Please note: all alcohol must be consumed on property as fans cannot take full, unopened, or partially consumed cans out of GIANT Center as souvenirs. The Chocolatier and Bears’ Den restaurants will also have Bear Claw Pale Lager available on draft.

The 5.5% ABV beverage is a limited-time release. The artwork for the cans is highlighted by the face of a roaring bear. The bottom of the can is encircled with 12 shields containing each season in which the Bears won the Calder Cup, the most of any team in the history of the American Hockey League.

Hummelstown Doesn’t Deserve Maritza

AmyMWolfe — Mon, 11 Sep 2023 03:46:13 +0000

Snack Time

Minimum Security by Ever Grain Brewing Company (…and popcorn from Maritza’s House of Style Grand Opening Celebration)

It’s that time of night. What snack can I get into? The leftover popcorn from Martiza’s new shop’s grand opening celebration. I decided to pair my snack with an Ever Grain favorite, Minimum Security Hazy New England, IPA. It weighs in with a 6.8% ABV and an overall Untapped rating of 4.05. It goes perfect with the leftover popcorn.

Maritza’s House of Style – Grand Opening

My big sister Maritza DeJesus Patterson was celebrating the opening of her new hair salon with all her clients and supporters as she fought to keep her business in Hummelstown the past 3 years. The entire newly remodeled and opened hair salon was packed as well as the surrounding yard and sidewalk.

The backyard of 400 East Main Street is filled with tables of snacks, balloons and fun stuff for the kids. The driveway is taken up by the trailer from Sweet Dawgs serving up ice cream to party goers. Inside you find free raffles to enter, cupcakes, cookies and waters.

Maritza’s old hair shop – the original Maritza’s House of Style (located across from the 7-11 on South Hanover Street, in Hummelstown PA)

I sip my hazy but light IPA as I recall my May 11 hair appointment with Maritza at the old shop. The dye was in the hair and we had full on started chatting away. All of the sudden we heard a loud bang. It was a car accident right outside the shop. Without even thinking Martiza and Liz both sprint across the street to check on both cars involved in the accident. They stay on the scene until emergency personal arrive to assess the situation. Liz comforting a hysterical driver and Maritza clearing the road for traffic to continue to move.

I took a moment and looked around, even peaking my head outside the shop covered in dye, and dozens of people gawking. I’ve been involved in accidents several times before, not that many stop to check on you. Maritza will always check on you. Always.

Beer and Snacks

Specialty cookies from Maritza’s Grand Opening (photo courtesy of Brownhaven Photography LLC)

I polish off my pop corn and dive into the cookie from Maritza’s too. It helps settle the rest of the delicious IPA. Minimum Security is described on Untapped as a full bodied hazy IPA, dry hopped with Chinook, Simcoe, and a touch of Citra. Flavors and aromas of mango, and orange creamsicle with a soft finish.

As I’m reminiscing about Maritza’s old shop I remember it felt like cheers. And I chuckled thinking about running into my first grade teacher, Mrs. McGarvey, who also gets her hair done at Maritza’s. Maritza managed to move her own ‘Cheers’ to her new shop.

I’m all out of snacks and I’m out of beer.

Happy Birthday to Ben

AmyMWolfe — Mon, 28 Aug 2023 03:44:31 +0000

Ben’s Birthday

Today is Ben’s birthday; the owner, creator and editor of the blog. He’s the kind of guy that hates the spotlight on him. Which is why only lately do you see pics of him since I’m taking them. Odds are he might try to edit some of this out. But he deserves to be celebrated and I wish I could give him the world. You see, over 2 years ago my world came tumbling down all around me. It was him and writing that felt like I was brought back. So tonight, on his birthday, I’m writing about an Ever Grain beer and pairing with a yummy cupcake. It’s not technically a birthday cupcake but more delicious. Ever Grain’s Metal Tree and homemade apple cupcakes with salted caramel frosting are on tonight’s treat list. I mean this is starting to feel like my birthday with such a special treat. I mean mine was just 5 days ago but still, I’ll play glutton just this week. (We Can’t Always Be a Glutton Right? – Perfect Portions and Allusion Brewing Company.)

Metal Tree

Metal Tree by Ever Grain Brewing Company and Apple Cupcake with Salted Caramel Frosting by Darby. (Pay no mind to the stove clock – its not the right time and we’ve never bothered to fix it.)

Metal Tree is described as a Pale Ale -New England/Hazy. On untapped it is described in detail as a “Straw or deep gold in color, this style has a varying degree of cloudiness. Starch, yeast, hop, protein and/or other compounds contribute to a wide range of hazy appearances within this style. There is a perceived silky or full mouthfeel that may contribute to the overall flavor profile. Grist may include a small amount of oat, wheat or other adjuncts to promote haziness. Descriptors such as “juicy” are often used to describe the taste and hop-derived aroma attributes present in these beers.”

Metal Tree by Ever Grain Brewing Company

Metal tree comes in with a 5.2% ABV but to me I definitely thought this one was a higher ABV. I think it is the pale ale style combined with the yummy hazy taste. It pairs perfectly with the forgotten other autumn time favorite, apple. This apple cupcake with salted caramel icing pairs perfectly with the lightness of a pale ale but finishes with the hazy taste. I think it’s that exact combo that makes Metal tree just taste and feel that damn smooth.

MT has an untapped overall rating of 3.95 but with overall good comments I’m surprised the rating is low. One check in says “Not sure why this isn’t rated higher but it is delicious! All the flavor or a full ipa and half the ABV. One of my favorite pale ales.” I think it is the depth of flavor in this pale ale that fools me into thinking I’m going to get hammered with a DIPA.

Metal Tree by Ever Grain Brewing Company

Beer: Metal Tree
Brewery: Ever Grain Brewing Co.
Style: Pale Ale – New England / Hazy
ABV: 5.2%
IBU: N / A
Untappd Description: A medium bodied hazy Pale Ale we brewed with Citra and Simcoe, which lends flavors and aromas of apricot, lychee, and orange blossom.
Global Untappd Rating: 3.95 (as of 8.27.23)

Apple Cupcake with Salted Caramel Frosting

The Apple Cupcake with Salted Caramel Frosting (courtesy of Darby). Thank you very much Darby!

These apple cupcakes were made by a coworker of Ben’s to celebrate their birthday. I’d like to say I’d seek out the recipe but I despise baking. I’m more an eyeball and never measure anything kind of cook. I sure hope this coworker of his like cooking and baking often.

Happy Birthday Benjamin! You inspired me to start writing again and supported me when I struggled after having Scarlet. You are an amazing father and funny as hell, not like a clown though. Let’s save one of these Metal Trees to drink on our next hike, another inspiration you passed on to me. Love Amy

What is Your Summer Time Go To Beer?

AmyMWolfe — Mon, 26 Jun 2023 02:35:12 +0000

Clusterduck (with Strawberries) by Ever Grain Brewing Company

Ok, It’s been warm enough here in Central PA and we are past the peak of summer solstice; what is your summer beer go to? I picked up this Clusterduck (with strawberries) by Ever Grain Brewing Company with the thought of drinking this on the back porch after a summer rain. It rained and stormed, or at least the part of town we were in it did, so I thought It was time to crack this open.

According to Untapped Clusterduck with Strawberry is a 7% IPA -other. It comes with a 3.86 rating which is low for the quality of beer Clusterduck gives you.

“I’m still not an IPA chick”

I mean we have a 1.0 rating and the description is “I’m still not an IPA chick…that cleaner taste.” These ratings should, in no way, indicate the quality of this fruited IPA. Also, I know a lot of us are spoiled with the double and the tripled IPA but this just tone it down a bit. A nice 7% fruited IPA is perfect on the back porch, while the baby finally went to sleep, and a light IPA can help you handle the rest of your Sunday evening. There was a tad of sediment on the bottom of the can, but this can be expected with a fruited beer. Let’s be honest, we expect this with no qualms when it’s our favorite fruited sour.

Popular Summer Beers

According to a MyBartender.com article – 30 most popular summer beers on the market – my ol’ favorite summer, go to, Leinenkugel’s Summer Shandy makes that list. In this same article it describes the summer Shandy as the perfect companion for a barbeque or any other summer time occasion. A barbeque beer is exactly what I think of when I think of a summer beer.

But obviously we want to suggest some local beers to our readers so here it goes: Boneshire Brew Works normally comes out with a “Hippo” series of fruit beers during the summer. Pink Hippo, Summer Hippo, Blue Hippo, Red Hippo and a Fall Hippo. Pink Hippo had strawberries, Summer Hippo had peaches and mangos, Blue Hippo had blueberries, and Red Hippo had raspberries.

Troegs Independent Craft Brewing has both Sunshine Pils and Nimble Giant we’d recommend as a summer beer. Sunshine Pils is a nice and light Pilsner and Nimble Giant is a double New England IPA with a summer release. Tattered Flag comes in with the “Basic Dad Pilsner” and again, its a nice and light Pilsner to enjoy on a warm and humid summer evening. Then Moo Duck has their summer beer with the “Big Sit Summer Ale”. Please don’t hesitate to let us know your favorite summer beer go to! (Seriously, by all means, let us know in the comments or on our Facebook page or in the Facebook group what your favorite Summer time beers are!)

Drink More Beer!

Beer Review: Sorbetto 42 (Ever Grain Brewing Co.)

AmyMWolfe — Sun, 16 Jan 2022 14:50:53 +0000

Sorbetto Number 42 by Ever Grain Brewing Co.

Sorbetto

There is a secret Sorbetto dance I perform when I see Ever Grain post they came out with a new Sorbetto. I might do a similar celebration dance for the yinzbetto series and Drippity announcements too. Since it’s so darn cold out, this dance was effective at also warming up my cold bones.

Yes, I’m still obsessed with the Sorbetto series. I just feel like Ever Grain gets me when it comes to this series. It was everything I needed in my life and well…. still need! The forty second one in the series does not disappoint! Check out my other Sorbetto review – Beer Review: Sorbetto 40 (Ever Grain Brewing Co.) or my other beer review from Ever Grain Brewing (Beer Review: Missile Toad)

(You can find other Ever Grain beer reviews here as well: All Together, Peanut Butter Udder One, Multiple Beer Review: Barrel Aged Barleywine, You Think Darkness is Your Ally?, 3rd Anniversary Bourbon Barrel Aged Stout, Cinn-a-Bunn).

And now, time for the review:

Beer Review

Sorbetto #42 by Ever Grain Brewing Company

Beer: Sorbetto Series #42
Brewery: Ever Grain Brewing Co
Style: Sour – Fruited
ABV: 6%
IBU: None
Untappd Description: Raspberry Swirl Sour Ale conditioned on raspberry, marshmallow, and vanilla. *contains lactose.

Does anyone have images of the Kool-Aid man bursting through brick walls at different points in their lives? Please tell me it isn’t just me!

Kool-Aid Man

That first sip of Sorbetto #42 I immediately visualize the Kool-Aid but in a Raspberry shape instead of the classic glass pitcher. When he bursts through the wall instead of bricks flying there are raspberries flying at your head, aggressively. I’m dodging the raspberries but then I get overpowered, and I’m soon buried by berries.

The Raspberry flavor is very much the HBIC in this Sour. There is no doubt about it. It’s a delightful mix of sweet and tart raspberries. That first nose and that first sip don’t leave anything else for you to play with on your tongue but raspberries. It’s just that moment when you think to yourself “ok, I’m about down with the raspberries…” the marshmallow and vanilla kick in and mellow out the fierce berry swirls. That second sip will whip you right back in the face with the berries, watch out.

Drink more beer,
Amy.

Ohhhhhhhhhh Yeeeeeeaahhhhhhhhhh

Beer Review: Missile Toad (Ever Grain Brewing Co.)

AmyMWolfe — Wed, 22 Dec 2021 12:01:16 +0000

Missile Toad by Ever Grain Brewing Co.

Missile Toad

When this tasty season treat came out last year when we were all stir crazy from quarantine I went on a long, long adventure with my friend the Missile Toad. I am normally not a fan of the grapefruit notes in my beer, but this triple IPA holds up with a high ABV, very light straw color and a not so boozy taste.

Beer Review

Beer: Missile Toad
Brewery: Ever Grain Brewing Co
Style: Triple New England/HAZY
ABV: 10.5%
IBU: None
Untappd Description: “Seasons greetings from a hop rocket of holiday happiness. Exploding with juiciness, this hazy Imperial IPA combines citrus notes with a soft piney finish. It’s like a tropical vacation in the middle of winter.”

The tropical vacation we all wish we should go on. Ah yes, the part of the holiday season I look forward to, holiday beer releases. They don’t all provide a high ABV and the MT will quickly sneak up on you.

That first sniff is a wonderful citrusy aroma. The Citrus flavors in this TIPA carry on and linger but are not overpowering. Just when you think that is about all this beer has to offer the light pine taste comes in and you glide down to a soft landing that combines this subtle tropical citrus taste and somehow delightfully pine taste

I first tasted this one a year ago before reading the description. A pine and a citrus flavor description beforehand would have given my taste buds a SCARE. The light tropical flavor with an aroma of a citrus sleigh ride bring back that thrill of getting your first crate of grapefruit or oranges over the holiday season. It didn’t matter if you ate them until your mouth was raw, that fresh citrus flavor was unmatched and you craved it.

The pine flavor. I thought I would hate it. Right away I envisioned picking pine needles out of my teeth, maybe a slight sticky sap feeling crossed my mind too. “little full, lotta sap”

This is the magic of drinking a well brewed beer. The flavor and aroma you end with brought back some of the first memories of rounding the corner to dive into your pile of presents on Christmas morning. That thrill of making sure your siblings were in-tow when you raced to the tree and that light pine scent danced around you as you believed in the magic of Christmas. But as an adult, I also believe in the magic of holiday beer releases.

In case anyone is looking for a Christmas present for me, I wear a size – 4pack of Missile Toad!

Drink more beer!
Cheers,
– Amy
