The Bog Reviews 2020

The summer season is in full swing, and the reviews for The Bog are in: it’s the beer of the summer!

Our incredible cranberry shandy blended with lemonade, The Bog is vibrant and refreshing while still packing tons of flavor. With a low ABV of 3.9%, it’s refreshing enough for the quickly increasing temperatures in the area while keeping the alcohol content low enough to drink all day long.

We checked out Untappd to see what our fans had to say about The Bog this year, and they’re definitely loving it!

Hopefully, we made a few people a little happier than they might have been otherwise.

The Return of The Bog

The Bog is back!

Our intensely refreshing cranberry shandy is much loved by many of our fans, and we love brewing it up for you folks each year.

This year, we’re getting it to you a little early!

Cape May IPA is slightly bitter with a zesty finish -- kinda like Ben Platt in The Politician.

Livin’ That WFH Lyfe

If you’re anything like us at CMBC, right now, your whole office is holed up at home, socially distancing themselves and anxiously awaiting this all to be over.

It’s stressful. Everyone thinks that working from home sounds like a wonderful time until they actually have to do it. Then, suddenly, it’s 6pm and you realize that, not only haven’t you showered yet today, but you haven’t eaten anything, either.

Luckily for you, at Cape May Brewing Company, production is continuing unabated. We’re still making all of those beers you’ve come to know and love, and you probably want them in quantities you never realized possible, at this point. We’re here for you.

So, as you socially distance yourself from everyone else in the world, we’ve got the perfect pairing for those activities you never knew that you’d suddenly spend your weekdays doing.

“Imperial Cranberry (Bog) Shandy? Sign me up!”

That Cranberry Good Good Is Back!

One of the best things about this business is that we get to do things simply because we want to.

The Bog is certainly a good beer. Some may even say that it’s their favorite beer. We definitely love it, but last year we decided to have some fun with it.

So… we kicked it up a notch. Well, from an ABV standpoint, we kicked it up four notches — okay, 4.1 –, turning our beloved cranberry shandy into an Imperial cranberry shandy. We all needed some of That Cranberry Good Good.

Find out what people are saying about it!

Beer for Breakfast

There are things in this world that, once you’ve graduated from college and entered the harsh, cruel world, you’re simply not supposed to do anymore.

Pull an all-nighter, for example.

Break into the astronomy observatory at three in the morning to use their printer to publish an underground magazine, for another. (Just us?)

Or have beer for breakfast.

Well, we’re here to stymie that last one. We’re here to tell you that there’s absolutely nothing wrong with having beer for breakfast. After all, it’s the most important meal of the day. In fact, a beer like Crushin’ It is practically screaming to be sipped during your first meal of the day.

So, we got together with our CIA-trained Culinary Ops & Soda Guru JP Thomas to build the perfect breakfast using our beers in the recipes and pairing each dish with another delicious CMBC brew.

Or just pair them with Crushin’ It. You don’t really need to look much further, particularly for breakfast.

If you’re hosting a breakfast party, we’ve got a whole menu for you. Or, if you’ve got an end-of-summer staycation coming up, we’ve got nearly an entire week of breakfasts waiting to be devoured.

Do you have any more suggestions? Let us know!

The Bog Cocktails

There’s nothing better than an awesome beer cocktail. Cool and refreshing, they’re perfect for the summer months — and they mix two of your favorite things: beer and cocktails!

And there’s no better beer cocktail than one made with The Bog. Its sweetness and its cranberry deliciousness are perfect for a beer cocktail. In addition, its low 3.9% ABV makes it excellent for a mixer.

We’ve had a number of events over the past few weeks that featured some Bog joyfulness in a cocktail form. Check ‘em out!

Summer Catch and The Bog are Back!

It’s the most wonderful time of the year!

No, not Christmas. There are still 249 shopping days until Christmas.

It’s not back-to-school time. You’ve got 138 days until the kiddies go back, and they’re not even off for Summer Break, yet. Slow your roll.

It’s time for the return of Summer Catch and The Bog!

Are people interested in an imperial shandy? Is too much of a good thing too much? Are people going to get wasted on Thanksgiving and start telling off their entire family? Let’s find out!

Get Me Some of That Cranberry Good Good

Regardless of what they say, you can never have too much of a good thing. It’s a good thing. The more the better.

That’s why, when someone said, “Hey. You know what would be awesome? If we brewed The Bog but bumped up the ABV to, like, Imperial levels,” we all responded with, “Well, damn. Why didn’t we think of this sooner?”

Well, wait no more. A limited run of That Cranberry Good Good drops on Saturday.

Probably my favorite brew from Cape May Brew Co.

The Bog. In cans.

You’ve heard the phrase “labor of love”. It’s one of those things that you do for the love of it. Because it’s part of your soul. It’s arduous, fraught with danger, and pitfalls abound, but you do it anyway.

Yeah. That’s what getting The Bog into cans has been for Cape May Brewing Company.

We love this beer. We love that you love this beer.

We love that we’re finally able to bring you this beer.
