What kind of beer is Puffin Party?

Puffin Party is an IPA from Rising Tide, a Maine brewery. IPA stands for India pale ale, a style built around hops. Hops give a beer bitterness, and depending on the variety they also bring flavors like citrus, pine, tropical fruit or resin.

IPAs vary a lot from one beer to the next. Some are crisp and bitter, some are soft and juicy, and some are strong and heavy. For the exact flavor and strength of a particular beer, check the label on the can.

How do you check the shelf before you drive over?

Which IPA styles can you browse?

IPA is a broad family, and we sort ours into smaller groups so you can narrow down what you want.

For hazy, soft, fruit-forward beers, look at New England IPA. For a more traditional, bitter profile, try American IPA. Stronger beers sit under Imperial IPA, and lighter ones under Session IPA.

There is also a page for Specialty IPA's if you want something with an unusual twist.

Which breweries do we carry that make IPAs?

If you like to follow a brewery rather than a single beer, we have brand pages for several makers. Other Half, Toppling Goliath, Finback, Night Shift and Mast Landing are among them.

These pages show what we have from each brewery right now. It is a good way to find something new when the beer you came for is not here.
