Beavertown Neck Oil

Beer Description

Beavertown Neck Oil is a session IPA that became one of Beavertown’s signature beers. First brewed in the early 2010s, it helped define the brewery’s accessible hop-forward identity: lighter than a full IPA, but still aromatic, citrus-led, and expressive. Beavertown became Heineken-connected through Heineken’s investment in 2018 and later full ownership. Within the archive, Neck Oil represents the modern craft-era shift toward lower-strength, highly drinkable IPAs with bold branding and everyday appeal.
