Geocache Description:

Second in this series on the Lamprey River, named after two of my favorite things to do.  Go on cache runs and explore different types of beer. 


This one is named after Redhook Brewary's old standby ESB. Brewed in the style of a traditional British ESB (Extra Special Bitter), we’ve been making ESB continuously since 1987, and it’s now the benchmark for the Amber beer category.  Despite having “bitter” in its name, Redhook ESB is really not that bitter at all.  This brew is all about the balance of caramel malt sweetness completed by spicy, citrusy hops.

 

This paddle cache run will have to be a cache up stream and a cache downstream.  Sorry no put in and put out downstream, to many road blocks in your way.  The river current is not very strong so paddling should not be too hard.  Be prepared the think light thoughts on some parts of the river.  These caches where place when the river level was a good 2-3 below normal level.
