Glimmerglass was the name given to Otsego Lake by author James Fenimore Cooper in his historical novel series, The Leatherstocking Tales. Nestled between gentle mountains, the pure and clear lake reflects not just objects held up to it but also the joyful spirit of its home Village of Cooperstown upon the arrival of each new spring. “Having grown up in Cooperstown and spent so much time enjoying Otsego Lake, this was a very special beer for me to brew,” said Brewery Ommegang’s Innovation Manager, Mike McManus. “It’s the perfect beer to sip as you begin to migrate back outside again with warmer weather. I hope everyone who drinks Glimmerglass finds it evocative of a refreshing and relaxing day aside a breezy and lively lake.” “Clean water is one of the most important ingredient in our beer and we’re very fortunate to brew in Upstate New York where there’s such an abundance of perfect water, said Ommegang Brewmaster Phil Leinhart. “Glimmerglass is our testament to the pure lakes and springs that our region is known for and a bit of a tribute to our home village and its wonderful history.”

    A murky yellow colored beer with a very big sudsy textured, white head rising above. There's excellent hang time on the head. It settles eventually into a thick ringlet and splotches of film. Bold nose of spices, grains and citrus fruit. Coriander, orange peel and grainy earthiness. Light, crisp body.
