KOLSCH

German Blonde Ale 4.7%

For all you Kölsch fans out there that keep asking for it to come back, we got you. We went back to the Kölsch yeast from a tiny yeast bank on the east coast that we used for the very first batch of this bier almost 3 years ago. It truly is our favorite yeast for this style as Kölsch, unlike a lot of German bier, is a very yeast driven style. Kölsch yeast is know for its light white wine or pear esters and this particular yeast might deliver our favorite ester profile of all the yeasts we’ve used for this style. Probably the easiest drinking beer we make and the definition of Bier Flavored Bier.

ALTBIER

German Brownish Kinda Amber Ale 4.7%

Altbier returns after a short hiatus. Historically brewed in the German town of Dusseldorf, It’s a style we really love and and are committed to brewing more often as it seems to be a fan favorite as well. Delicate aromas of caramelized sugar, crusty dark bread, and lightly toasted grains combined with a spicy hop character, and a snappy finish. Altbier is a really easy drinking malt forward bier, much more so than your typical American Amber Ale.

Hops: Sterling, HBC 1134

PALE LAGER

South German Style Pils 4.7%

Pale Lager is our interpretation of the Pils brewed in the southern part of Germany. Not as malty or full on the palate as the Pils brewed in the Czech Republic but not as dry and bitter as the Pils brewed in the North of Germany. Instead of using 100% North American grown ingredients for this lager we chose to blend 50:50 with German grown ingredients. Pilsner malt grown in Idaho is blended with Pilsner malt from a lesser known traditional German maltster. Hops are a blend of WA grown Sterling at the beginning of the boil and Hallertau Mittelfruh grown in Germany towards the end. This Pils is designed to not be as hop forward as the other Pils we brew, similar to the ones found in and around Munich.

Hops: Sterling, Hallertau Mittelfruh

TABLE BIER

Dry Blonde Ale 4.5%

New batch of Table Bier has arrived. Table Bier doesn’t really fit into any specific category or style. It takes inspiration from some of our favorite low ABV blonde biers and kinda mashes them all into one that’s not inheriting like any of them. Dry and bitter like some of our favorite low ABV biers from De La Senne in Belgium but fermented warm with our favorite Kolsch yeast for a little extra fruitiness, and dry hopped with a new experimental hop variety grown in WA that’s bred to mimic the character of European Noble Hops.

An incredibly refreshing bier that pairs well with food, conversation, or your favorite outdoor activity.

JUST ME: MT. HOOD

Single Hop Pilsner 5%

Our Just Me series of Single Hop Pilsners returns with an Oregon grown noblish variety called Mt. Hood. Mt. Hood was originally released in 1989 and is bred from Hallertau Mittlefruh. It was the first release from the Hop breeding program at OSU designed to replicate German Noble varieties. Just like the PNW Pils and the Helles we also chose to use a European barley variety, in this case Czech Francin Pilsner, grown in WA. Both the hops and the malt in his beer are Certified Salmon Safe meaning they were grown using reduced watershed impact techniques and inputs. Mt. Hood most resembles Hallertau Hersbrucker with some underlying spice and maybe even a touch of blueberry. Lagered for 6 weeks. No fining or filtering

DRAWN TO THE DARK

Coffee Milk Stout 6.8%

Drawn To The Dark Coffee Milk Stout also makes its return for the first time in a year. We really enjoyed the beans we sourced from our buds at Idle Hands Roasting in SLC that we went back to them for another Columbian variety this year. We settled on an Anaerobic Washed Bourbon Rosado this year and boy does it pop in this beer. There’s no mistaking there’s a lot of coffee in here. A modest addition of lactose and slightly higher ABV this time around really makes for a beer that’s full and soft on the palate and acts as a great base for intense coffee expression.

DOPPELBOCK

Whiskey Barrel Aged 10.5%

Introducing our latest barrel aged offering, Doppelbock. Brewed at the beginning of May 2023 this traditional strong German lager spent a little over 13 months in Vanilla Toast wheated whiskey barrels from Alpine Distilling. We’re incredibly proud of how this bier turned out. Most barrel aged biers these days are much higher in ABV and final gravity than this. Often times a smaller bier like this can get overpowered by a spirit barrel and come off as thin and hot and honestly not that enjoyable to drink. Thankfully this beer is none of that. The whiskey character is very present in flavor and aroma but we’re blown away by how soft and supple the beer presents. Notes of caramel and dried fruit are complimented by soft flavors or vanilla and baking spice. The drinkability of this beer will help it pair well with a hearty meal on the cool fall evenings that are just around the corner.
