Cambridge Brewing Company
So, what happens when 3 physicists go to the brewery? Beer drinking of course :)
The Cambridge Brewing Company is a small bar-style brewing pub that features a great selection of ~10 home brewed beers. As we are in New England, its mostly Ales (all of which are awesome, no exception). But there are also some new impulses. For example they offer a sake-beer hybrid.
Our fine party sampled a pitcher of the Tall Tale Pale Ale and the Cambridge Ale.
The Tall Tale Pale Ale is in the best tradition of New England Ales. And it's a perfect blonde - 10/10. It has a very thick, fine foam that stays a long time in the glass. Also it smells of citrus and flowers, which is the hops. It tastes great.Very bitter, lots of hops, a full body, and, according to the menu, a special caramel malt. I didn't taste it though.
The next beer sampled was the Cambridge Amber. And it is amber. From the first look, we mistook it for the porter. Very malty, and brewed from a combination of four different hops. This one goes more in the chocolate, malty taste. I lost my notes so I just write it is really worth it.
