India Pale Ale|6.8% ABV

Balance Point focuses on an exciting newer hop variety from New Zealand. Peacherine takes center stage providing beautiful fruit forward complexity. Notes of ripened stone fruit, tangerine, and lime zest meld to help make this beer to be unique and very delicious. Balanced by a soft and rounded malt presence and a complimenting underlying hop bitterness. Balance Point will satisfy your hop needs while still being very approachable.

Bright Wave

West Coast Style IPA|6.8% ABV

Our new year round Modern take on a West Coast Style IPA - Bright Wave IPA brings big citrus, notes of mandarin orange, ripened berry with an underlying dankness into a wave of hop flavor and aromas. Our modern interpretation is lean, clean, dry and fully saturated with balanced hop bitterness and expressive hop character throughout. 

Counter Weight 12° Tmavé

Czech-Inspired Dark Lager|4.5% ABV

In Czech, Tmavé means dark - and pivo means beer - here you have, you guessed it - Dark beer! Brewed in the Czech tradition, with a long decoction mash schedule, fermented in open top fermenters and horizontally lagered, CW 12 plato Tmavé Pivo offers up a touch of  coffee like roastiness with some really nice malt sweetness alongside complimenting nuttiness.

Crucial Mass

American DIPA|8% ABV

Crucial Mass is an America DIPA brewed with a blend of American and Southern hemisphere hop varieties that contribute big, tropical fruit flavors. Ripened mangoes, passionfruit, and a touch of grapefruit dominate the nose, with a subtly sweet malt backbone to support the big explosive hop flavors.  

Drudenhaus

German Style Rauchbier|5.8% ABV

Drudenhaus is our smoked beer inspired by the traditional Rauchbiers brewed in Bamberg, Germany. We used malt produced in Bamberg that was dried over a beechwood fired to create “smoked malt.” This smoked malt imparts big smoky aromas and flavors within a rounded, clean, easy drinking lager beer.  

Fest Bier

Reap and Rip

Modern West Coast Style India Pale Ale|7% ABV

Reap and Rip is our new West Coast IPA made in collaboration with Brewers Supply Group. We created a clean canvas using Rahr and Thee Pils malt, then added layers of hop saturation. Columbus Cryo, Mosaic, Strata Cryo, and Nelson combine to deliver big aromas of orange rind, ripe red berry, and an underlying beautiful dank quality. Dry, pleasantly bitter, and packed with big hop derived fruit character.

Space Coyote

American IPA|6% ABV

Space Coyote is a Galaxy focused IPA. Big passionfruit, citrus, and pineapple aromas dominate this wonderfully hop forward yet balanced beer. 

Tall Groves

Hazy India Pale Ale|6.6% ABV

We had the opportunity to sample a lot of great hops this past harvest year and experimental variety 033 really stood out to us. Australian grown and incredibly expressive, full of ripe mango qualities with some sweeter notes leaning towards clementine like citrus. Is this the most mango leaning hop expression we've experienced? Quite possibly! Soft and rounded malt help balance the big mango and orange marmalade like notes in this IPA.
