Research Notes
- First pass: The brewery's beer, taproom and taplist pages were read; the taplist is an embedded Canva design whose readable text is only a heading, and the online order site showed no beer list.
- First pass: No Untappd page for the brewery could be located by direct URL, and the shared web search budget ran out during this batch.
- First pass: No 2026 medal announcement from the brewery was found.
- First pass: Researched 2026-10-13.
- Second pass 2026-10-13: The Good Fork's menu names Strong Rope Pub Ale and supplies the strength. The brewery's awards page identifies Pub Ale as a bitter. No verified IBU, recipe ingredients or dedicated brewery beer page were found.
- Field pass 2026-10-13: A matching BeerAdvocate listing has no product description or IBU, and additional brewery-page searches found no qualifying product page or named hop variety.
- Deep dive pass 2026-10-14: the brewery site was read; it has no Pub Ale description.
