Roc is a dry-hopped Japanese Lager that pours the palest of yellow hues with a dissipating white cap of foam. Within its crisp body and clean finish are a smattering of unique notes from newcomer Audacia hops. Aromas of rose and lilac hover above the glass before giving way to notes of black currant and huckleberry.
Leads with floral; also berry. Feels crisp and clean.
On the Classic wheel, from Tree House’s own descriptions of this beer.
Roc is a dry-hopped Japanese Lager that pours a pale yellow hue with a dissipating white cap of foam. We used a hop new to us, Audacia, lending a bouquet of rose, lilac, black currant, and huckleberry. The father of two lads in our Tree House family, Roc Goudreau has been with us since the beginning; heck, he probably tried the first batch of Julius. A versatile artist, his dreamy, richly colorful paintings shift with the seasons behind our Classics Bar in Charlton. His fingerprints can also be found at our flagship location, bubbling just to the left of our front doors in the form of a Koi Pond built from large stones native to the land. From our barn in Brimfield to our Farm Brewery in Monson and now in Charlton, his koi have traveled with us, inspiring a quiet sense of wonder. The koi on this can were painted by the man himself. A gem of a guy and a gem of a beer.
