The story behind it
Back East Brewing Company was founded in 2012 by cousins Tony Karlowicz and Edward Fabrycki, Jr. Sharing a deep passion for craft beer, they opened their brewery in Connecticut to create high-quality, flavorful, and accessible beers for their local community.
Brewed in Bloomfield, Connecticut, this IPA has become a regional cult classic. The recipe features a heavy dose of Citra hops added late in the brewing process to extract maximum aromatic oils without harsh bitterness.
