RISING TIDE STRIPER SEASON

Striper Season by Rising Tide is an inviting golden ale, crafted to capture the essence of Maine’s cherished striper fishing season. This American-style brew offers a harmonious interplay between bright hops and a well-rounded malt foundation. With its approachable 4.9% ABV and moderate 30 IBU, Striper Season strikes a pleasing balance, making it an ideal choice for those who appreciate a refreshing, easy-drinking beer. Expect vibrant hop notes that provide a subtle citrus zest, complemented by a gentle malt backbone that adds a hint of sweetness without overpowering the palate. This balance makes it a versatile companion for various foods, from grilled seafood, which echoes the coastal inspiration, to light salads and even mildly spiced dishes. The golden ale’s crisp and clean finish makes it particularly suitable for enjoying on a warm afternoon or at a festive gathering by the shore. For the optimal experience, serve Striper Season at a slightly chilled temperature, around 45 to 50 degrees Fahrenheit. This range allows the nuanced flavors to unfold without muting the hop aroma or the malt character. A standard pint glass or a nonic glass, with its slight bulge near the top, will enhance both the visual appeal and the drinking experience, allowing the subtle aromas to concentrate and greet you as you sip. Embrace the spirit of the Maine coast with each pour of Striper Season, a beer designed not only to celebrate a season but to offer a taste of place and tradition in every sip.
