Notes of bright citrus & heady evergreens 

Classically dank, piney and citrusy, Covered In Nuggs scratches every nook and cranny of that IPA itch. We laid down a delicious, sturdy base of North American barley malt and piled on Citra, Simcoe, Amarillo and Centennial hops to build a sticky heap of lupulin goodness. Covered In Nuggs makes us want to celebrate IPA Day every day!

Covered In Nuggs is our winter Season-Ale for 2026 featuring some incredible artwork by our 2026 Season-Ales artist ... the talented Dylan Goldberger.

Did you know...

Covered in Nuggs actually started as a brewpub exclusive at Brewings & Eats in Rehoboth. It was a hit year after year, so in 2024 we brought it nationally for all to enjoy!
