Received: A pair of Shipyard exclusives
Last week a package arrived from Shipyard Brewing, containing these:
Those are the two beers in the Pugsley’s Signature Series of beers being offered by Shipyard: Barley Wine and Imperial Porter. You can read more about them from their blog:
Pugsley’s Signature Series is named after Shipyard Brewing Company’s master brewer, Alan Pugsley. Alan is from Hampshire, England where he worked with Peter Austin at the world-famous Ringwood Brewery before moving to the United States in 1986.
(An aside. The fact that they have a blog redeems their less-than-user-friendly website. Somewhat. But their main site really needs some work.)
Handsome bottles and packaging, for sure. Look for my reviews this week.
I’m in the other Portland now. Just got back from a tour of Allagash. No one sent ME bottles of Shipyard…
Are you sure they’re not waiting for you back in the *proper* Portland? 😉
