Beer

Lemon Shandy3.6% ABV

Our take on a universal favorite! A little tart, very crisp, and subtly sweet. A perfect way to celebrate the kick off of fall and savor the end of summer!

Petite Saison4.0% ABV

A traditional Belgian beer packed with flavor featuring a tart start and sweet floral notes that lead into a dry refreshing finish.

Hefeweizen4.2% ABV

Our Hefe is a classic twist on the infamous wheat beer. With notes of banana, vanilla wafer, and clove leaving a very refreshing after taste that will have you returning for one more!

American Pale Ale4.9% ABV

A perfectly balanced yet hop forward ale. Multi dimensional floral and citrus notes balance well with its subtle malt undertones. Rich in taste, medium in body and bitterness making this a highly drinkable beer.

Blonde Ale5.0% ABV

A crisp, balanced blonde ale with a light bready malt profile, subtle honey-like sweetness, and a dry finish.

Brown Ale5.2% ABV

A malt forward favorite, this brew is a blend of traditional English Pale, Munich and Honey malt for a slightly sweet, very drinkable English-style Brown Ale.

German Chocolate Porter5.2% ABV

Richly flavored and fully bodied this smooth Porter is booming with flavor. Notes of toasted oat, chocolate, and of course cake.

Festbier5.7% ABV

A classic crisp lager, full of malt and light on hops. Light notes of biscuit and honeysuckle give it a clean finish for a highly sessionable beer!

Hazy IPA5.8% ABV

A full bodied IPA with notes of pithy grapefruit, lemongrass, and tangerine. Boldy herbaceous with small hints of marigold and dandelion. Try it as a Beermosa by adding a splash of orange juice!
