HAMMERHEAD
India Pale Ale
Hammerhead is a real banger! Smashing its competition! A beer you’ll want to pound!
Hammerhead showcases the Amarillo, EI Dorado, and Galaxy hop varieties.
| AROMA |
Classically citrusy/sweet orange hop aromas with underlying apricot, pine, and fresh- cut grass notes.
| FLAVOR |
Soft and inviting malt sweetness upfront with a very gentle grain huskiness on the finish that ties in nicely with citrus flavors of Hammerhead’s flavor profile beautifully balances old-school IPA bitterness with new-wave hazy juiciness.
YOUR OPACITY
Hazy IPA
ABV 6.6% | 30 IBU
Your Opacity is back! Juicier than ever this
batch features the popular Strata and El
Dorado hops! Passionfruit and strawberry
aromas compliment the tropical and hoppy flavor profile.
| AROMA |
Bold fruity aromas of passionfruit,
strawberry, and pear.
| FLAVOR |
A chewy yet smooth body carries the fruity
hop flavors that the haze heads will love,
with a perfect underlying hop flavor.
MAIBOCK
Maibock/Helles Bock Lager
ABV 6.8% | 32 IBU
Maibock (“May” bock) is indeed a true bock but does not use any deeper caramel malts a bock would utilize and instead uses paler Vienna malt and decoction – making for a transition beer for when it’s still a tad too chilly to comfortably imbibe outdoors into the evening, but the sun still shines brightly into the taproom.
This year’s Maibock attenuated very well for us, resulting in very little residual sugar for a rather light body but it still has the delicious fresh bread and light caramel malt flavors from the decoction process.
| AROMA |
Delicate sweet caramel maltiness with notes of gently toasted bread.
| FLAVOR |
The flavor follows suit from the aroma – a medium-light body carries rich and complex malt flavors of sweet caramel, and freshly baked bread, with notes of grain huskiness as well as some nuttiness in the background. The decocting process – boiling a portion of the mash to caramelize the sugars in the grist – creates a malt richness that when coupled with a clean fermentation, makes for a seemingly divergent effect that cannot be created by other brewing means.
PALE ALE
Pale Ale
ABV 5.2% | 40 IBU
Inspired by THE classic American Pale Ale from a northern California brewery taking its name from the mountain range where it’s located. Arbeiter Pale Ale emptied the hop freezer with the classic grapefruit and pine of Centennial and El Dorado’s tropical fruitiness in the boil, then a generous dry hop charge of a publicly bred hop called Vista with sweet honeydew and juicy papaya characteristics.
| AROMA |
A familiar blend of fruity hoppiness with subtle toasted maltiness.
| FLAVOR |
A smooth-bodied beer with a softness throughout that is complimented by juicy tropical and melon-like hop flavors.
BARREL-AGED HERMANATOR
Bourbon Barrel-aged Doppelbock
ABV 7.8% | 23 IBU
Barrel Aged Hermanator sat in a used bourbon barrel acquired from our friends down the street at Du Nord for about a year before being harvested and subjected to further aging in stainless to let the woody barrel notes mature into the beer. The result is a light-bodied base beer in lovely balance with mellow bourbon barrel-aged characteristics.
| AROMA |
Familiar, gentle and welcoming bourbon barrel aromas of oak, vanilla, and cherry, with grain husk and soft caramel malt notes.
| FLAVOR |
Rich and complex malt flavors including toffee, caramel, and raisin from the base doppelbock, with subtle bourbon barrel flavor influences of oak and cherry. A faint touch of tart apple sweetness, and an even fainter bitterness may be perceived around the edges of the flavor profile.
POMEGRANATE/LIME SPRITZIG
Seltzer
ABV 4.9%
*Gluten Free
A crisp and refreshing alternative to our beer offerings. The citrus flavors make this seltzer a real thirst quencher!
| AROMA |
Sweet pomegranate with a hint of lime.
| FLAVOR |
Clean and bright with a flavorful explosion of pomegranate and lime.
ARBEITER® BIER
GERMAN BLONDE ALE
ABV 5.4% | 18 IBU
A beer for the people! A beer designed for those who are looking for “just a beer”, as well as folks looking for a palate cleanser between hoppy, sour, and imperial beer.
| AROMA |
Light fruity and almost pear-like.
| FLAVOR |
Delicate sweet malty flavors with fruity ester notes from the yeast, followed by a very clean finish.
HAHA PILS
Northern German Pilsener
ABV 4.9% | 38 IBU
This pilsener slaps so hard, it’ll make you
laugh. Haha Pils is our flagship pilsener.
Haha Pils is the cleaner and more hop-
forward pale lager you’ve been looking for.
Brewed in the Northern German tradition
(thus the spelling with the extra “e” as
opposed to “pilsner”), Haha Pils is cleaner
tasting and more hop-forward than it’s
maltier brethren from deeper within the
European continent. Our pilsener is brewed
using the highest quality German pilsner
malt and mashing techniques to ensure a
clean and crisp malt profile. A perfectly
complex hop profile containing earthy,
grassy, hay, wildflower, and spicy fresh
herbs demand your attention and make
you wonder why your glass is already empty.
| AROMA |
Balance of clean grain huskiness and floral hoppiness.
| FLAVOR |
Clean malt profile from top to bottom; hop flavors are a mix of floral and hay with a hint of herbal spiciness.
WESTKÜST
Westcoast-Style IPA
ABV 7.0% | 70 IBU
West Coast meets Hallertau (hop growing region in Germany)! Westküst finds its way as a West Coast American IPA by enlisting a full array of German-sourced hops and malts.
We call it, “Bavarican”, because Westküst achieves an American IPA flavor profile by enlisting a full array of German-sourced ingredients.
| AROMA |
Apricot/peach pit, some tangerine and grass notes, and even some resinous green pepper aroma.
| FLAVOR |
The blend of German-grown hop varieties employed provides a unique but familiar flavor profile that includes citrus, resinous, grassy, and some fresh herbal notes; not unlike what would be found in a traditionally made American IPA.
