-New Pints-

Aslan Brewing Co.

De La Rouge

Brewed in the same manner as our Mandarina Queen IPA, this version uses only Barbe Rouge hops. This new experimental variety from the French hop breeding program delivers stone fruit and red berry notes with a prototypical dankness. Singular usage of hops can either work very well, or be a complete disaster. This particular variety is great all by itself.

6.8% ABV

Satan’s Airport

The intense Imperial Milk Stout was brewed with over 30lbs of custom roasted, organic Guatemalan coffee beans with their friends from Primer Coffee.

9.99% ABV

Kulshan Brewing Co.

Hoppy Lager

Brewed using experimental lager hops from Indie Hops in Oregon’s Willamette Valley, this Small Batch lager is subtle, nuanced, and very sessionable. Wholesome bready malt flavors lay the foundation for this beer, while on the hop side there are pleasing floral and earthy notes, as well as light citrus and lemongrass. Clean, crisp, and dry, this hoppy lager is a darned tasty beer.

Three Fingers Imperial IPA

Named after Three Fingers Mountain near Darrington. Aroma notes of mango, peach, and orange dominate, while on the tongue grapefruit pith and pine lead the way.

Stones Throw Brewing

Structures Brewing

DopeThrone Double IPA

Brewed with a simple malt profile and hopped with Citra, African Queen and Simcoe (very generously). Not available in cans but definitely available in growlers.

Illuminati Brewing

Captain Brown Ale

Smooth Drinking Brown Ale. 5.6% ABV
