Peak Organic Beer

pale ale

Our Pale Ale is a complex hybrid between a West-Coast Pale Ale and a British-Style Pale Ale. An abundance of Cascade Hops gives this beer a citrusy, floral nose. We use a high percentage of Caramel Malt to provide a stark contrast to the hoppy front palate, giving our pale ale a smooth, malty finish.

ABV: 5.1% IBUs: 44

Suggested food pairing: Spicy food, sushi, chicken, pork, hummus, mild cheeses, herb cheeses, fruity desserts

IPA

This unique India Pale Ale features our favorite hops—Simcoe^®, Amarillo^® and Nugget. A generous Amarillo and Simcoe dry hop provide for an assertive, hop-forward nose and front palate. We don’t use traditional bittering hops in our IPA, providing nothing but stimulating citrus and floral characteristics.

Inspired by a recipe from our good friend and fellow homebrewer Tim from the North Shore Homebrewers Club.

ABV: 7.2% IBUs: 76

Suggested Food Pairings: Spicy foods, pesto, smoked meats, mild cheddar or mild blue cheese, gorgonzola

nut brown ale

Our Nut Brown Ale starts out very smooth, like an English-style Brown Ale. The use of Chocolate Malt, Munich Malt, and Hallartau Hops give this beer a crisp, nutty finish. Peak Nut Brown is a delectable beer loaded with complex, differentiated flavors that don’t overwhelm the palate, making it a perfect dark beer for food pairing.

ABV: 4.7% IBUs: 21

Suggested Food Pairing: Hearty courses, beef, roasted pork, pastas with red sauce, creamy soups, aged/strong cheeses, smoked gouda

amber ale

Our Amber Ale is designed to start bright and lively from an abundance of Crystal Malts. We establish a strong contrast between front palate and back palate by adding generous amounts of Munich Malt, which provides a distinct toasty finish.

ABV: 4.9% IBUs: 37

Suggested Food Pairing: Grilled meats/veggies, smoked fish, poultry, burgers, port-salut or tangy cheese

maple oat ale

Peak Maple Oat Ale is a highly unique copper-colored ale. The oats provide a round, soft mouthfeel and the maple lends a subtle richness in the finish. We collaborated with local farmers and small businesses to craft this beer: with Maine-grown organic oats from GrandyOats and Vermont-produced organic maple syrup from Butternut Mountain Farms. The beer is in support of Chefs Collaborative, the nation’s leading environmentally conscious culinary organization. Read more here.

ABV: 6.7% IBUs: 26

Suggested Food Pairing: Meats with sweet marinade, salmon, bratwurst, chicken, mild English cheese

espresso amber ale

A robust amber ale brewed with locally roasted, organic fair trade espresso with help from our friends down the street at Coffee by Design. This malty amber ale is brewed with substantial amounts of Munich Malt, providing a perfect backbone for the rich, roasty flavor imparted by the espresso.

Peak Espresso Amber is the first Fair Trade Certified beer brewed in the United States. Read more here.

ABV: 7% IBUs: 22

Suggested Food Pairing: Brunch items, BBQ, vanilla ice cream, chocolate cake

king crimson

King Crimson is an Imperial Red Ale that delivers a royal bounty of luscious, fruity American hops on top of a sturdy, deep red malt backbone. This beer is lavishly dry-hopped with Simcoe, adding a citrusy and piney flavor and aroma to the toasty, sweet malt notes. This special treat is a very limited Winter release, so enjoy it while you can!

Tim Adams, our Mid-Atlantic man by day, and research and developer by night, created this recipe in his kitchen.

ABV: 9.5% IBUs: 90

Suggested Food Pairings: spicy appetizers, grilled meat, asiago cheese, peppery cheeses, chocolate dessert

pomegranate wheat ale

Peak Pomegranate Wheat is a refreshing, yet intricate ale brewed with locally grown organic wheat, organic coriander and a touch of organic Pomegranate and Acai juice from our friends at Sambazon. Not as sweet as many fruit beers, the Pomegranate Wheat has a soft, round mouthfeel from the local, un-malted wheat. The spice from the coriander and the subtle sweetness from the Pomegranate and Açai are a perfect complement. Read more here

ABV: 5.9% IBUs: 19

Suggested Food Pairing: Lighter courses, salad, vegetable dishes, fruit courses, chevre goat cheese, mozzarella
