Cooper’s Series “Squanto”

Drew - Founder & President — Thu, 02 Apr 2015 19:36:35 +0000

Plymouth, MA – Mayflower Brewing Company, America’s Hometown brewery, is pleased to announce the release of a new beer called “Squanto” starting next week. This saison is an unfiltered Belgian farmhouse ale and is the third of the brewery’s new line of limited-edition, Cooper’s Series beers that are available in kegs and 4-packs.
“We were very pleased with the success of our first two Cooper’s Series beers and are excited to release Squanto”. says Drew
Brosseau, founder and President. “Celebrating the history that inspires our brand, this beer pays tribute to Squanto (Tisquantum), a Patuxet who befriended the Pilgrims and helped them recover from a tough first winter by teaching them native methods of cultivation.”
The company has brewed just 100 barrels of Squanto, which will yield roughly 800 cases and 100 kegs. The beer will be available to customers starting next week, with a multi-week rollout planned throughout New England.
“Squanto is our take on the traditional farmhouse style ale, Saison,” says Ryan Gwozdz, Head Brewer. “Pilsner and wheat malts give this beer a golden straw color, with a hazy appearance from yeast still in suspension. The aroma includes some spiciness from a blend of two yeasts and earthiness from Styrian Golding hops. The taste mimics the aroma, with a dry, refreshing finish, perfect for sipping on all spring and into summer.”
The company plans to release additional Cooper’s Series beers in coming months.

Mayflower Cooper’s Series Alden

Drew - Founder & President — Fri, 09 Jan 2015 16:23:04 +0000

January 9, 2015
Plymouth, MA – Mayflower Brewing Company, America’s Hometown brewery, is pleased to announce the release of a new beer called “Alden” starting next week. Alden is an unfiltered double IPA and is the second of the brewery’s new line of limited-edition, Cooper’s Series beers that are available in kegs and 4-packs.
“We were very pleased with the success of our first Cooper’s Series release – Mayflower Scotch Ale – last fall, and we are
excited to follow that up with Alden ”, says Drew Brosseau, founder and President. “The beer is named after John Alden, our ancestor and the cooper on board the Mayflower. As we explore bringing new beers to market, we think it’s fitting to pay tribute to the pilgrim families that inspired our brand.”
The company is brewing just 200 barrels of Alden, which will yield roughly 1,800 cases and 180 kegs. The beer will be available to customers starting next week, with a multi-week rollout planned throughout New England.
“Alden pours a deep golden color and explodes with complex aromas from lots of late boil Citra additions and Mosaic dry hops. Flavors of tropical fruit, pine and citrus coat the tongue, with a dry and lingering bitter finish accompanied by some slight alcohol warmth ”, says Ryan Gwozdz, Head Brewer. “We used only a small amount of bittering hops and favored late kettle additions to provide mild bitterness and pronounced hop flavor and aroma.”
The company plans to release additional Cooper’s Series beers in coming months, with the next one slated for March 2015.
