English malts, aromatic hops and water rich in essential salts and minerals combine to give
Bass its slight burnt roast aroma and high-quality, full-bodied flavor. The original English
Pale Ale and England’s first trademark, Bass has been embraced by trail-blazers since 1777.
Beck’s is renowned for uncompromising quality. It is brewed today, as it was in 1873, with a
rigorous brewing process and a recipe using only the best 100% natural ingredients – hops,
water, barley and malt. Beck’s adheres to the strictest quality standards, consistent with
the German Reinheitsgebot (Purity Law), and enjoys wide popularity in almost 90 countries.
Beck’s Non-Alcoholic is light amber in color and boasts a full, rich, thick head and balanced bitterness. Beck’s brewmasters stop the fermentation process before alcohol can form, but not before they achieve the distinctive full-bodied taste and aroma of the finished brew.

Just one sip of Blue Point beer and you’ll find yourself at the boatyard hanging with friends, brewers,
and a few seagulls. That’s because after years of tireless brewing (but mostly drinking – don’t let their
brewers tell you otherwise), Blue Point knows it takes a hometown brew to live up to New York standards.
Though their brewers never stop innovating, one thing has stayed true since 1998: Blue Point is pretty
damn proud to brew beer in a boatyard for the people and place that inspire them every day.

more people continue to enjoy their freshly crafted cider, Bold Rock founders John and Brian
are still committed to preserving their founding ideals: Real Apples. Real Craft. Real People.
