We kept the window sill very local today, with Old Saybrook’s newest brewery, which I visited over the weekend.

30 Mile Brewing Company was founded in 2016 by Old Saybrook native Luke Maynard and his business partner David Prather. When Luke and Dave started brewing beer together, Luke drove 30 miles to get to Dave’s house. Now, Dave drives 30 miles to get to the brewery. That’s how it got its name!

I was actually pretty lucky to get my hands on the Moteukarillicoe, which is named after the three hops that are used in brewing it: Motueka, Amarillo and Simcoe. The resulting American IPA is hoppy and fruity, but not overly bitter. A nice, tropical blend of flavors that made me wish I hadn’t gotten the last full pour before the keg kicked. Sorry, everyone else. Here’s hoping 30 Mile brews up some more soon.

You don’t need to go 30 miles for more beer, just go to our Instagram!
