Richardson Overlook IPA is our first IPA brewed with 100% ingredients grown right here at Four Star Farms.
All the ingredients, except for the yeast, came from within 150 yards of the brewery itself. Fermented with an American ale yeast, Cascade, Centennial and Chaos variety hops showcase a big citrus character followed by a smooth and balanced malt character from our very own malt. This beer is a vibrant exploration into truly local beer and showcases the unique and delicious qualities of ingredients grown at Four Star Farms.
This beer is brewed in collaboration with The Mt. Grace Land Trust with the goal of preserving the Richardson Overlook, a piece of land in Northfield with an incredible scenic view of the area. A dollar of every pint sold will go toward this preservation project right here in Northfield. This is a very exciting project that is close to the heart of our business’ mission as it is a beer preserving land in Northfield, using ingredients grown on land preserved for agricultural use in Northfield, and helping to support both.
We are releasing this special beer during Massachusetts Beer Week, a week long celebration of breweries and beer in Massachusetts.
