Mike’s Beer #3.5—Ithaca GroundBreak


According to the ground rules, I’m not supposed to mention any brewery more than once. I will, of course, be trying a great many new beers by Ithaca this year since a) they’re my hometown brewery and b) they keep coming out with new beers about as often as I change my socks. I reviewed their TWELVE and LeBleu two weeks ago, and already they’re back at it with a new beer. This one’s going to be a regular late winter seasonal. GroundBreak is an American saison, which you know, means that it’s a Belgian-style saison with lots of hops. This one is medium body for a saison with a strong hop flavor and bitterness. It’s definitely unlike anything else Ithaca has put out. I’m guessing that I’ll be bringing plenty of this with me to TAP-NY.
