Blasty Update 9/18/28
We are back in full operation!
We’ve got three Blasty beers on tap; Blasty Amber, McCoy’s Choice Porter and and a tart PYO Blueberry Ale!
Being honest, while drinkable and enjoyable, these first three offer but a glimpse of the beers to come. Dave has high standards and fully expects to meet them soon! Come and get ‘em! And as a bonus you get a historical sense of from whence we have come! Dave still shakes his head at the journey this expansion has been.
We will be eliminating guest taps as we bring more of our beers on-line, but for now we still have a murderers’ row of great local, national and international favorites. It has been fun curating a beer list for the our taproom, but all good things…
Thursday nights feature the Blasty House Band cranking up a roomful of acoustic trad tunes!
Yesterday, Doug Bogle, of Concord Craft, Anheiser Busch, Cape Ann Brewing and others, stopped by to give me a thorough tutorial on the ins-and-outs of the new brewing system. In a few short hours Doug saved me months of trial and error. Friday will be the first fully informed brew made with the equipment. Boonie Cruiser IPA will hit the taps in a couple of weeks. Dave is extremely excited (and more than just a little relieved)!
The kitchen expansion continues with the final stages of a new hood being completed soon. We aren’t exactly sure what new items will hit the menu, but good stuff is coming!
The latest addition to the menu is a Blasty spin on the New England favorite, the Whoopie Pie. So far we’ve made a Zucchini Cake Cookie with orange-ginger cream filling; a Carrot Cake with lemon-basil filling and a Mexican Chocolate with Agave-lime filling. Pumpkin with rum-molasses filling is up next. The goal is to offer a flight of mini-whoopies for washing down with a nice Blasty brew. A Whoopie Blasty if you will!
Thanks for your patience and for visiting us here at the Blasty!
