KÖLSCH STYLE ALE
ABV: 5.0%IBU: 12.23
SRM: 4.27
SRM: 4.27
Light in body, crisp in finish, with a golden hue, and a decent malt backbone.
Brewer's Statement
I wanted to brew this beer because I think Kolsch is an underappreciated style, that would be wildly popular if more folks got to experience one. This take on a classic Kolsch is a bit crisper, with more muted hop notes, to make it the perfect game day beer, or to be enjoyed for any occasion really.

A proper English bitter, this beer mimics many of the beers you would find in a pub in the UK. Amber colored, clean, crisp, with some mineral, and hoppy bitterness.

I wanted to brew an English bitter because I feel like it is one of the most underrated styles. Originating from the town of Burton in East Staffordshire England. The beer got its bitterness mainly from the mineral content of the local water. Now it’s known that high amounts of calcium sulfate accentuate hops in beer.

Pours a rich a copper color with an off-white head. Malty, Sweet, with lots of heat from its time in the bourbon barrels.
Brewer's Statement
A true to style barleywine, barrel aged, to add even more complexity. Like many of our beers, this is a labor of love. After several batches are brewed and fermented, they are transferred to bourbon barrels. Where it ages for a minimum of a year, from there individual barrels are selected and blended to produce a unique batch.
Although it’s a bit of a cumbersome process I always knew that I wanted to have a barrel program here. Barleywine is the quintessential barrel aged beer in my mind, so it makes sense that it’s the first beer of the series. Like many of these barrel aged beers, they are higher in alcohol, and full of flavor and complexity, and are the perfect beer to share during the holidays.

Brewer's Statement
A real deal imperial stout, high octane with the ABV approaching ten percent. But balanced with the sweetness and bitterness. Tons of chocolate and vanilla, the perfect beer for the winter months and a great beer to share around the holidays.
The second beer in our barrel aged series, each batch sits in bourbon barrels for a minimum of a year and then the barrels are selected and blended. The blending process allows us to have subtle variations each year, with a fairly consistent flavor profile.

Pale Yellow, crystal clear, with a thick biscuit of foam on top.
Brewer's Statement
It pours beautifully with the nitro faucet to mimic those traditional cask-conditioned beers in Europe. As the gas bubbles cascade down the glass, it builds the perfect head and completely changes the texture of the beer. Giving it a creamy mouthfeel and allowing the hop flavors to dance across your taste buds. This beer holds a special place in my heart, I fell head over heels while traveling abroad in the UK with the cask conditioned beers. I knew we had to offer at least a tribute in our taproom to those who came before. Modeled after a beer from a brewery that was founded in the 1800’s, this beer was brewed with 100% percent imported malt and hops from the UK. It’s an old school single malt, single hop beer. It’s a classic take on an English pale ale, light and refreshing with a bit of a bite.

Brewer's Statement
Pale yellow and crystal clear, refreshingly crisp and sour with loads of key lime, a clean finish with a bit of saltiness.
This beer is a labor of love without a doubt. Good things take time, and this is no exception. Brewed using the kettle souring technique, this beer undergoes a lactic fermentation prior to hitting the fermenter for the primary fermentation.
This involves immaculate sanitation so that the lactic bacteria is contained and only works its magic in the kettle. The beer is inoculated in the boil kettle where the Ph is continuously monitored for roughly 72 hours. Once the Ph is low enough the beer is boiled and the hops, key lime puree, and key lime peel are added.
The perfect beer for a hot day.Tasting Notes

Brewer's Statement
Hazy yellow in appearance, light in body, with tropical fruit flavors, and crisp dry finish.
The lightest edition to the line of hazy IPA’s, this beer shares many similarities to its cousins. It has a similar malt bill but with a different mixture of hops. Brewed with heavy amounts of cascade, citra, and Idaho 7 hops gives this beer lots of tropical fruit flavors, as well as grapefruit, and other citrus. Using the same type of yeast as the other hazy IPA’s and adding hops during the mashing process really drives those flavors home.Tasting Notes

Dark brown in color with a tan creamy head. This beer toes the line between a porter and a winter warmer. It has some of those coffee, toffee, and roast notes you would find in a porter. However, it finishes with those sweet malty notes you would find in a winter warmer.
Brewer's Statement
Just like in life, balance is important in brewing. I wanted to keep this beer balanced between the roast, sweetness, and bitterness. Even more than that though, I wanted it to balance out the winter months. This beer isn’t as high proof as the average winter warmer, but it’s got enough character to wake your taste buds when it’s cold outside. When it’s hard to feel your hands, feet, and face and you just feel like staying in, I hope this beer inspires folks to either get out and embrace the elements or grab a fuzzy blanket and curl up on the couch.

Brewer's Statement
This is the beer to ring in spring, traditionally brewed in the middle of winter to be enjoyed during the first nice days of the year or during false spring in the northern states. There are a multitude of bock beers out on the market, our take falls in line with the dark bocks. Similar to Oktoberfest beers in the fall, this one is designed for a party. The recipe was created to be enjoyed as is or poked with a red-hot iron from a roaring fire. The poking caramelizes the remaining sugars in the beer creating new flavors and imparting a creamy texture as it disrupts the carbonation of the beer.

Brewer's Statement
This take on the new aged hazy IPA’s should hit all the characteristics of those on the market today. Low in bitterness yet with lots of expressive flavors from the hops. Things like pineapple, peaches, and passionfruit. This beer is brewed with an emphasis on Thiolizing yeast. Which not only hangs in solution to give you the hazy unfiltered appearance, but it also is the driver for passionfruit and guava notes in the beer. It’s truly fascinating science, which has given new life to old techniques and hops that were generally forgotten about or thought to be generally boring.

Brewer's Statement
Having a pale ale in the rotation is a no brainer. Finding that balance between malty and hoppy for those who want something to drink with more character than some of our lighter beers but not be blown away by hops.
I had one specific goal with this beer and that was to showcase one of the most widely used hop varieties over the past couple of decades, Cascade. Like our hazy IPAs this beer is brewed with a Thiolized yeast, which pulls some great tropical fruit flavors from the hops that are not traditionally associated with cascade. Those tropical notes play well with the more common grapefruit and pine that come from adding cascade at various times during the boil.

Brewer's Statement
The main star of this beer is the yeast, originally hailing from Weinstephen Germany, it’s the driving force behind those classic banana and clove flavors. Our take on the beer manipulates the yeast a bit by fermenting at a cooler temperature. That brings out some of the pear flavors and mutes some of the clove notes.

Golden Yellow, crystal clear, with a mountain of foam for a head. Light in body, crisp with bright notes of lemon and citrus, complemented by floral notes and a dry finish.
Brewer's Statement
This beer is designed to be poured slowly using a traditional Czech side pull faucet. This method of pouring large amounts of foam and allowing it to settle several times to fill the glass creates a creamy mouthfeel and opens-up the beer more so those hop flavors can shine. It also builds a healthy amount of foam on top. It breathes new life into a beer classified as yellow beer over the past couple of decades.
It’s delicate and delicious, good things come to those who wait.

Copper colored, with an off-white head. Medium bodied with a crisp finish. This beer is malt forward but the hops balance the flavor profile as the floral notes leave a slight lingering bitterness on your tongue.
Brewer's Statement
I have a fondness for many of the traditional beer Styles and the Vienna Lager is no different. It’s interesting the Vienna Lager came to fruition at roughly the same time frame as the Marzen Lagers. However, the Austrian Vienna Lager is less well known and popular than its cousin, the Oktoberfest beers, many are familiar with.
That being said, I knew I wanted to brew a Vienna Lager and showcase those classic attributes. Our take on the Vienna Lager shares many of the same qualities of those original beers from the region. It’s copper colored, coming in around five percent, with lots of bready and toffee flavor, and a subtle amount of floral hop notes on the back end. This beer drinks well all year but I really enjoy it during the colder months of the year when I’m looking for more malty beers.

Brewer's Statement
In keeping with the trend of breathing new life into older traditional styles I knew I wanted to brew a Dortmunder. This was the original blue-collar beer of Germany in my opinion. Originating from Dortmund Germany, this beer was for the folks working long shifts in the regional mines. Traditionally it was a pale malty lager with a higher alcohol content and with more hop character.
My take on this beer shares many of the qualities of traditional Dortmunders. Brewed using 100% imported German malts and hops. Crisp and clean with some malty and biscuity sweetness. Theres some floral and citrus notes and plenty of lemongrass.
