COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
The inaugural beer is code named REGAL PALE ALE. It was brewed on June 25th and released around July 16th. REGAL was a strong and hoppy English-style pale ale. It is made with 100% English pale malt and is bittered with all Magnum hops. It was dry-hopped with some Fuggles and English Goldings. Thirty pounds of oyster shells were added to the two hour boil (courtesy of The Blind Tiger, NYC). Why put oysters in the boil you may ask? Why not. They provided a subtle earthy mineral quality and depth. The finished beer delivers around 55 IBUs. A good session beer by our standards.

Rated: 5/01/04 For about 8 or 9 months now, I’ve been wondering to myself if a beer from Heavyweight that I got on tap one night and couldn’t stop raving about for a few weeks actually existed. Everytime I checked the breweries website not a damn thing was mentioned about this beer. However, i kept my notes just in case it ever popped up. Well, after drinking this weekend and trying Heavyweights new Black Ocean, i decided to rate said Black ocean. Little did i know that heavyweight was brewing a whole series of beers to be available for only one time at one place. Sure enough i found the old Regal Pale Ale listed there. Well, enough rambling. This beer rocked. Potently hoppy, yet sweet, malty and earthy, with a killer refreshing finish. Big white head, pungent hop aroma. Friggin delicious. And its never to be brewed again. Damn.
