Happy Hour Tap Room - Foam Brewers & Evolution Craft Brewing Company

Happy Hour Tap Room - Foam Brewers & Evolution Craft Brewing Company
“Fermentation may have been a greater discovery than fire.” – David Rains Wallace In this US Rugby Happy Hour Tap Room episode, Bill & John introduce a new beer and brewery to their listeners! Don’t worry, these breweries don’t sponsor the show… so it’s game on! I mean, if they wanted to, we’re willing to take one for the team… or many.  🍺 All That You Wanted by Foam Brewers Burlington, VT 8% ABV - IPA - Imperial / Double Collaboration w/ Karina Rykman. All That You Wanted is a Double IPA brewed with pilsner + malted wheat. Dry-hopped with Citra, Strata, and Enigma, this DIPA embodies the characteristics of these hops. Lemongrass and citrus on the nose are followed by notes of a tropical fruit blend of papaya and mango on the palate. A hint of Orangina can be found on the finish. Operating a music venue for the last 7+ years has been one of the great joys of this adventure. And when it comes to the thriving music scene in Burlington, a few venues have paved the way. Nectar’s is certainly one of them. We’re beyond psyched to collaborate with Karina Rykman as she descends upon Burlington for two nights at the historic venue on Main Street. Straddling the worlds of jam rock and indie pop drenched in psychedelia, Karina’s effervescent presence comes to life when she hits the stage. Bill’s Untappd Rating: 4.25 🍺 DelMarVa Pure Pils  by Evolution Craft Brewing Company   Salisbury, MD 4.8% ABV - Pilsner - Czech / Bohemian Awarded Best Beer in Maryland by the Brewers Association at the 2018 Commissioners Cup. Supremely sessionable Eastern Shore take on a Czech style pilsner. Golden in color with floral and citrus zest hop characteristics. Crisp with delicate malt flavors and a dry finish. John’s Untappd Rating: 4.00 Brewers, want to partner with Eagles Overseas and Rugby Morning, or be a guest on the show? Rugby and beer go hand in hand!
