Great Rhythm Brewing Company
Portsmouth, NH.
Pete - I went here just after noon (when it opens) on a Saturday in the fall. The inside was super clean, albeit fairly small. They offer tasting size only in the brewery and cans to-go. It's reasonably priced, and they have some snacks (and even had local kombucha on tap). It's a bit outside the main drag of Portsmouth (near Liar's Bench though - definitely hit both at the same time. Despite being off the main roads, it's a popular place, and it got crowded fast. My only complaint was that the line to get a beer could get pretty long, probably due to the small serving sizes, though you can get a bunch (I got 6 at once).

Great Rhythm Amplified Amber
Amber Ale - 5% ABV Pete Pictured in the back. It's a fine beer. There isn't a ton of flavor, which is good for me, because I don't typically love ambers. Easy to drink with a tiny bit of maltiness. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |

Great Rhythm Crystalline
New England IPA - 6% ABV Pete Really good. A little creamy with a tiny bit of peppery bite to go along with tons of orange-y citrus. Approachable too at 6%. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
|
Great Rhythm Double Squeeze
Imperial IPA - 8% ABV Pete A little bit of bitterness to go along with a good amount of citrus. The aroma isn't quite as good as the flavor, so it kind of sneaks up on you with how good it is. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |

Great Rhythm Hi-Fi
IPA - 6.8% ABV Pete Pictured in front. Tastes pretty much the same as Wedge. Super citrusy and not bitter at all. Delicious. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |

Great Rhythm Norwegian Haze
Farmhouse IPA - 7% ABV Pete Pictured in the middle. Really delicious combination of saison and hoppy IPA. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |

Great Rhythm Resonation
Pale Ale - 5.2% ABV Pete Pictured in front. Very piney, and somewhat bitter for a pale ale. It's actually more bitter than any of the bunch of IPA's I had the same day from them. I'm OK with that, but be warned, if you don't like bitter, you should actually get the IPA's instead. BTW, great name for a resinous beer, didn't realize it when I had it. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |

Great Rhythm Squeeze
IPA - 5.7% ABV Pete Pictured on the right. That's the color I generally want in my IPA's, and this one didn't disappoint. Very citrusy, maybe even a hint of tartness like a little lemony. Great beer. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |

Great Rhythm Sticky
American IPA - 7% ABV Pete Color definitely makes it look like it's going to be a juice bomb. You get some of the creaminess you expect with that haze, and a good amount of citrus, but it's also pretty dank. I loved this combo. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |

Great Rhythm Tropical Haze
IPA - 6.8% ABV Pete Pictured in the back. This one left me wanting more. Definitely some nice citrus flavor, but not enough of it. Still, good flavor and very very easy to drink. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |

Great Rhythm Wedge
IPA - 6.7% ABV Pete Pictured on the left. Delicious. Super citrusy and not bitter at all. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |
