It’s a partnership with Dolle’s Candyland, Ocean City, Md., historic candymaker.
Saltwater Taffy IPA “has an unmistakable flavor that takes you back to days full of taffy at the beach, while not letting you forget you’re drinking an IPA. The 7.6% ABV beer perfectly blends the flavor of freshly squeezed lemons and citrus hops with rich notes of vanilla creaminess,” Flying Dog Brewery, Maryland’s largest brewery, says..
“Our team loves coming up with surprising flavors to wow consumers and when we can do that while partnering with local legends like Dolle’s, it makes it that much sweeter,” said James Maravetz, vp-marketing. “This innovative IPA has a perfect balance of creamy taffy and bright citrus notes to blow your flip-flops off.”
Saltwater Taffy IPA is being released under the Brewhouse Rarities umbrella, meaning that the idea behind this seaside-inspired treat originated from a Flying Dog employee as part of the brewery’s annual pitch program.
The partnership isn’t one-sided either: Dolle’s is creating a beer flavored version of their famous taffy with hops provided by Flying Dog. The taffy will be available online at dolles.com and in their Ocean City, MD retail locations.
