This beer makes no apologies for its roasted overtones, or velvety mouthfeel—nor should it. This brew is deeper & darker than your thickest winter wetsuit, and designed to keep you just as toasty on a cold winter’s day. The robust chocolate flavors float and mingle with rich coffee notes that send your taste buds swimming.

When the frost shows up and the rubber gets thickest for those winter storms, the time comes for a beer that can fill you with holiday cheer and warm you up after a frigid session in the Atlantic. Enter the Board Breaker. Our spiced Belgian ale dances on your tongue with aromatic malts, which are livened up with cardamom, cloves, and candied sugar with raisins and cinnamon thrown in post fermentation. An abbey ale yeast provides some fruity punch and at 9.1% ABV, it’s sure to bring the feeling back to your fingers. It’s time to gather round with the ones you love and toast to the fallen boards that winter brings to the Jersey Shore.

Spring comes slow at the Jersey Shore. To help you weather the chilly evenings and surf sessions ahead, we bring you Defroster.

Where the warmth of the rays of sunlight linger while the twilight quietly makes its presence known— the Golden Hour IPA resides. An IPA bursting with the refreshing tropical notes of peach and mango, which spring from liberal additions of Azacca and Ekuanot hops. This flavor is accentuated by its hazy, sunstreaked hue and balanced bitterness. The moment is here—time to capture the Golden Hour.

Taking a high line in surfing requires, skill, balance, and timeless style to get where you want to be—in the barrel. That’s why we decided to make what we’re calling an old school IPA. It boasts a balanced attack that includes a solid malt body, hearty bitterness, and a resinous, fruity hop punch that springs forth from copious doses of Centennial and Eureka. This brew pays homage to the IPAs that started the craft beer craze. So take the high line and you’ll be rewarded with a harmonious beverage that ignores the trends in order to deliver an enjoyably hoppy experience that never goes out of style.

The ocean can feel like a lake at times during the summer, which can make surfers get a little bummed. It’s when we forget the waves and focus on friends and good times on the long, sunny days of flat ocean. Lake Atlantic is brewed to be a worthy addition to your crew at any beach hang or summer cookout. It’s light and crisp, but with fruity undertones coming from a heavy dry hop of Huell Melon, El Dorado, and Idaho 7. There’s no bitterness to be found in this bubbly Brut IPA, which makes it a flavorful yet sippable beer to cheers to the flat, fun days of summer.

This ain’t no hodad, Squidlips. We crafted a new beer to pay homage to Gary Busey’s greatest role in a surf movie… Big Wednesday. This New England-style double IPA gets a little crazy with a hazy, oat-heavy base that lays the foundation for this juice bomb. Just the slightest hint of bitterness is met by a set wave of tropical aromas and flavors, which include melon, strawberries, and hints of citrus thanks to copious amounts of 007, Amarillo, and Citra hops added post-boil. You don’t have to like pain to enjoy Leroy the Masochist—You just have to be willing to go big.

The smoother the surface, the smoother the ride. The wind is fickle here in NJ, but you can usually count on glassy conditions early in the morning when you’re looking for a surf in the summer. Morning Glass Kettle Sour takes this route to deliver a unique flavor profile that’s both refreshing and intricate. This beer is kettle soured to create a slightly sour and puckering mouthfeel. It’s then smoothed out with additions of lactose, vanilla, passionfruit, and guava. This all adds up to an interesting sour beer that appeals to both sour fans and those looking for a more refreshing, fruity brew. Times a-wastin’, don’t miss out on the Morning Glass.

The old saying goes, “When in doubt, paddle out.” We’re all about just going for it here at Last Wave. Our Paddle Out Pale Ale fits that mantra because when you aren’t sure what you want to drink, this dry-hopped hazy pale ale will do the trick. Clocking in at a mild 5.5% ABV, and loaded with post-boil Meridian, Calypso, and Centennial hops, this beer goes down easy with a nice aroma of melon and tropical fruit. A base of Golden Promise and honey malt rounds this beer out and makes it ready to go whenever you are. There’s no need for doubt, just have a Paddle Out.

Red Sky at night, sailor’s delight. We know how to enjoy the sweeter side of life when it comes to beer. The sturdy malt combination of 2 row, crystal, and chocolate malts gently caress your taste buds with flavors bursting with simple caramel goodness, while a healthy dose of Cascade hops gives it impeccable balance. There’s never a bad time for a Red Sky, but its rich amber hues bring to mind the peaceful serenity of a crisp autumn evening.
