Maya Mae
Wash Ashore's Maya Mae IPA is the type of beer you could see yourself drinking with a plate of buffalo wings, especially hot hot wings, as you want some of the bitterness to distract from the heat.

On the front palate you get a fresh lifted taste of cantaloupe and honeydew. The fruit gives way to a rich amount of hops on the mid palate. As always, the balance of the beer is where it’s at and makes this IPA special. Its finish is full of stone fruits and melon with enough bitterness for all those IPA fans!

Final thoughts on Maya Mae
Overall, a decent beer. More hop and malt than fruit, at least what we are seeing. Come to think of it, Maya Mae is a pretty good dog name for a beer.
