Profile

Scott Vaccaro founded the Captain Lawrence Brewing Company in 2006, a short drive north from New York City. The Captain is the area’s largest craft brewery, producing over 28,000 barrels of beer annually. Now the brewery produces over 100 different beers every year and specializes in barrel-aged and sour beers. With this much beer under their belts, it only made sense to erect their own 2500 square foot beer hall and massive beer garden. If you’re in the northern part of New York State and you need to find a place that will serve you and 400 of your closest friends, then you need look no further than the Captain Lawrence Brewing Company. The Golden Delicious is a Tripel, which means you’re going to get spicy and sweet together with a high ABV kick. Serves well at 6°C and can cellar for up to six months.

Look

Pours a light gold colour with a slight hazy body and light carbonation. A thin ring of bubbles pours from the can.

Smell

The sweet fruit of fresh pears and a touch of grain ride lightly on top of the seriously powerful alcohol aroma. The boozy aspect is strong enough to drown out most of the other elements.

Taste

The advertised fruity and sweet elements are certainly going to hit your tongue. But then you’re going to get a high alcohol kick that will sweep the leg and make it hard to keep flavours on the mind. The taste of pears stays with you and fills your nose with sweet vapors, but almost everything gets pushed away by the boozy overtones. Smooth body and finish.

Pairing

Dig into a Ribeye with a loaded potato - it will pair nicely and a full meal will help you stay off the floor.
