What’s New- Barrel-Aged Framinghammers are rolling out!

Beer Hall, In the BreweryLeave a comment

This week we are releasing the first of the 2016 Barrel-Aged Framinghammers- the Bourbon Barrel-Aged Framinghammer and the Brandy Barrel-Aged Framinghammer. These beers are big, bold, black, and barrel-aged. Both have notes of chocolate, vanilla, and oak and are exceptionally smooth thanks to a lengthy conditioning period- while each feature the distinct flavors and aromas of the barrels in which they were aged. These beers will be available in bottles and on draft

What’s New- We’re back on the Bandwagon!

Beer Hall, In the BreweryLeave a comment

This week we see the return of a popular sour- the Cuvée D’Bandwagon! This golden dry hopped sour joins recent trends in sour beer with copious dry hopping after the souring process. Barrelmaster Matt added plenty of Saaz and Chinook hops, which lend spicy, herbal, and piney notes. We’re still straddling the seasons, so we have the last of all your Winter favorites like Lashes and Framinghammer on tap alongside Springtime picks like Sunny Ridge and Maibock Hurts like Helles so we’ve got you covered no matter the weather this week.

What’s New- It’s beginning to feel like Spring!

Beer Hall, In the BreweryLeave a comment

Spring is springing at the Beer Hall this week! Late last week, Maibock Hurts Like Helles joined our taps and this week Sunny Ridge Pilsner returns on draft! Both are excellent choices for spring. Maibock is a sweet malty golden lager with a full body and a bit more strength than you’d expect from its light color. Sunny Ridge is our spring seasonal, a pilsner brewed with German malts and noble hops- slightly sweet with a crisp finish and an herbal floral aroma. Come have a taste of each! The Maibock is also available in bottles to-go, Sunny Ridge bottles will release in a few weeks so stay posted! Also on tap- the Cuvee D’Smorgasbord, a new blended raspberry sour.

What’s new- Sour Time and Big Red Mitch!

Beer Hall, In the BreweryLeave a comment

We aged a batch of Leisure Time in wine barrels with souring organisms for over a year to bring you Sour Time! Light, tart, funky, and dry, this beer is perfect for sour lovers or those who want a little something different. Sour Time is a draft only release, so come have a pint with lunch or dinner this week! Also on draft this week is Big Red Mitch– an imperial red lager named after our favorite used-to-be-ginger salesman. This is a wicked hoppy lager brewed with simcoe, centennial, amarillo, and idaho-7 hops. Available for pours and growler fills.

Two cannings this week mean a restock of Hoponius and Calyptra cans before the weekend.

Beer Hall, In the BreweryLeave a comment

Leisure Time is now available in twelve packs of 12 oz cans following its first canning this week! We have a limited amount of cans so come grab yours while they’re fresh. Additionally, the Ninth Blend in our Sour Barrel Project series is now available in bottles. The Ninth Blend combines three lagers that were soured in a combination of red and white wine barrels. This is a brewery exclusive brew so be sure to stop by and pick one up. We’re also bringing two new beers on draft this week. Sibling Ryevalry is a new rye IPL brewed with Simcoe and Chinook hops. The piney herbal hop character compliments the spicy rye backbone. If hops aren’t your thing, that’s okay. A new black lager brewed with oats, lactose, and tons of roasted malt, Baby Hammer, will hit the taps as well. Sweet, dark, and full bodied, come grab a pint to warm you up on a chilly evening!

Beer Hall, In the BreweryLeave a comment

Hammerheads rejoice! Our seasonal baltic porter Framinghammer has returned on draft and in 12 oz four packs! A lengthy conditioning period creates a silky smooth chocolaty mouth feel enhanced by the use of oats and brown sugar- creating a brew with many similarities to imperial stouts.

We have a handful of specialty draft lines opening up this week as well. Hibiscus Blood Orange Leisure Time, 3x Dry Hopped Hoponius with Centennial and HBC-09328 , and PB&J Framinghammer will all appear on draft this week.
