Ishmael Copper Ale Rising Tide Brewing Co. | Portland, Maine

Ishmael [ish-mey-uhl] (n)—narrator and protagonist of the Herman Melville novel Moby Dick.

From Rising Tide Brewing Company—the independent, family-owned brewery anchoring Portland, Maine's vibrant East Bayside neighborhood—comes Ishmael, a richly-flavored American copper ale that embodies the thoughtful craftsmanship and Maine-grown ingredients that define this beloved New England brewery. Founded in 2010 by husband and wife team Nathan and Heather Sanborn, Rising Tide has built its reputation on creative flavors, quality, consistency, and a deep love for the Maine coast and outdoors.

Ishmael represents Rising Tide's American interpretation of the classic altbiers of Düsseldorf, but with a distinctly New World character. Brewed with continental Munich malt for depth, American-grown hops for brightness, and a clean-fermenting ale yeast, this copper ale strikes a beautiful balance between Old World tradition and contemporary American brewing. The result is a slightly sweet and malty beer balanced by firm bitterness—a genuine classic that may just spark a new obsession.

Beer Profile:

At 4.9% ABV, Ishmael pours a beautiful copper color with perfect clarity and a tight, fine-bubbled head that displays excellent retention and leaves chunky lacing down the glass. The nose is clean and inviting, revealing rich malty sweetness with aromas of bread crust, caramel, molasses, and a pinch of brown cocoa. Faint earthy notes mingle with pleasant, oily grassy hops and a hint of herbal spice.

On the palate, Ishmael is clean, malty, and medium-bodied—everything you want in a dinner companion. The flavor opens with sweet, bready malt and caramel notes, followed by layers of toasted grain, molasses, and nutty complexity. The hops are more assertive than you might expect, bringing earthy bitterness, herbal spice, black pepper, and even a subtle suggestion of grapefruit rind. The finish is crisp and slightly dry with lingering toasty grain and earthy hop bitterness.

The mouthfeel is decisively medium-bodied with a full, firm, and almost chewy texture, lifted by lively carbonation that provides refreshing scrubbing action. This is beer that's smooth yet structured—approachable enough for everyday drinking but complex enough to keep things interesting.

Pairing Suggestions: Ishmael's clean, malty character makes it the perfect companion for juicy burgers, barbecue, hearty sandwiches, roasted meats, or your favorite pub fare.

You could call it an altbier or an amber. We call it a copper ale. We call it Ishmael.

Hot enough to melt the ice rink
Format: Kindle
This was yet another great read by Cassie Cole. June has just started as the trainer for the Atlanta Reapers. Succeeding in this male dominated role is important to her, but the more she learns about these men the more she wonders if some things are worth risking everything for. As their trainer, the men are supposed to be off limits, but they can't deny the pull they each feel. The closer to Cole, Rhett & Elias she becomes the more she realizes that she may not be able to choose between them. Is it worth the risk to her career to continue to pursue a relationship with one of the men.... let alone the risk to all their careers if they would be open to consider a more unconventional relationship. Is love worth the risk? Read this steamy story to find out!. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Hat Trick (A Hockey Reverse Haven Romance)
Format: Kindle
I loved this book, what a trip! All the things a girl could want, plus getting Alice involved with their family. Nothing better than a lot of sex and love and a great sport, the baby sill be so spoiled when they have one, wow. Reverse harems are a favorite of mine. What a treat with this family, poly amorous it is. Interesting to the end. See you next time.

Editing and Hockey Research Would Have Made This Better
Format: Kindle, Format: Kindle
A bit of editing and research needed here. Maybe I’m just a hockey fan, but if you’re going to use actual NHL teams as opponents, please make sure you use actual NHL teams and not NBA team names. At the beginning of chapter 24, they play the “Philadelphia 76ers” which is NOT Philly’s NHL team. That’s an insult to Gritty and the Flyers, Philly’s actual NHL team. Honestly, if you’re going to use a fictional NHL team, them just make all the opponent teams fictional too. Additionally, I believe that trainers have an entire area to themselves, not just an office with one or two tables. June wouldn’t have to go through the locker room to tear the players; more likely she has her own space and office area. war the workout and recovery areas.

So So Amazing
Format: Kindle
I received this book wiht the understanding that I could leave a voluntary and honest review. In this book we meet June Wilder, Rhett Lawson, Cole Thibault, & Elias Nystrom. When this book opens we find that June has just joined the Atlanta Reapers as their new physical trainer. From the moment she starts she knows that she is going to get push back but there is something about not only this team but these guys that have become more to her than she thought when she first started. Rhett is the kind of guy who make a joke with anyone. One night when something happens with June he realizes there is something more than just jokes with her. Cole has been compartmentalized his life for years now. With the addition of June to the team he finds himself finding a person who understands his compartments and lets him be him. Elias is a man who is a an island. When he learns that opening up to one person who sees him allows him to grow and heal in many ways. Can they all find a HEA or will their positions make that impossible? Another amazing story by this author. I would highly recommend it to anyone.
