Greenport Harbor Harbor Wet Hop Harbor Ale

Greenport Harbor Brewing Company released a wet-hopped blonde ale in 2010, but the 30-barrel batch of Wet Hop Harbor Ale is a new beer, and an opportunity to present a different version of Harbor Ale, the brewery’s flagship. Harbor Ale is a “moderately hoppy pale ale with a dry finish, due to the presence of crystal wheat malt,” says brewer Doroski. The switch to a trio of wet hop varieties, including Cascade from a resident of Cutchogue, presents a “delicate grassy aroma and fresh flavor more noticeable by keeping the grain bill the same.”
