Beer

Year Round

Big Jim

7.2% ABV / 92 IBUs

Cascade, Mt. Hood and an enormous amount of Columbus hops added late in the brew fermenter, give this beer the hop punch IPA lovers crave. There is also a significant malt backbone and complexity to this beer to stand up to the hop intensity. At 7.2% ABV and 92 IBUs, this is a tribute to the style we call the Minnesota IPA.

Light Rail
Pale Ale

5.5% ABV / 45 IBUs

This is a light-bodied, hop-forward pale ale. Copious amounts of Cascade hops late in the brewing process, and another huge dry hop addition in the fermenter will remind craft beer lovers what they love about this style. The intense hop aroma will make you think IPA, but the bitterness is dialed back to showcase the characteristics of this classic hop variety. And at 5.5% ABV, you can enjoy a few of them.

Pravy Pilsner

5.3% ABV / 24 IBUs

The crown jewel of our lager program. Pravy is Czech for “true” or “genuine” and appropriately named as we set out to brew the most authentic version of this style that we could. The biggest challenge was replicating the water profile unique to Pilzn, Czech Republic. This mean stripping the mineral content of our Minneapolis water and correcting the water chemistry until the Pilzn profile was achieved Then it is lagered for a full 6 week, which makes the beer clear and “clean” tasting. Czech Saaz hops and floor malted malt are used and give a spicy, floral aroma with a bready malt richness.

Smokehouse Porter

6.2% ABV / 30 IBUs

Heavier on the caramel malt and lighter on the roast malt. 5% of the base malt is smoked in-house for a smoky complexity. This beer will pair well with most of our menu items. And weighing in at 6.2% ABV it can also be your winter warmer.

Seasonals

Still Kick’n IPA

6.8% ABV / 70 IBUs

A drier, less malty, refreshing IPA for the summer. Big orange and grapefruit flavor and aroma from Amarillo and Cascade hops. The fruitiness of wheat malt compliments the citrus flavors from the hops. And still enough malt backbone from the Munich malt to give it balance.

SOLD OUT! – Snow Series #2: Snowmageddon

9.7% ABV / 35 IBUs

An Imperial Honey Brown Ale with plenty of malt for a nutty, chocolate and earthy quality. We added 60 pounds of local MN honey from Sorensen Honey Farm after the boild to keep the honey flavor and aroma intact.

Essential Light

4.8% ABV / 12 IBUs

This is our American Lager that is design to be an anytime beer. Out back on the patio or around a campfire. We use our RO water system to make super soft water to add to the drinkability. We also add a little flaked corn adjunct to sweeten the beer a little and be true to the style.

Amber Bock

6.0% ABV / 20 IBUs

Utilizing Barke Munich malt to give an enhanced richness and aroma, this beer falls between a traditional bock beer and an amber lager. We keep the hops lows to showcase the malt, but they do add a soft, spicy bitterness with a flowery aroma.

Doppelbock

8.2% ABV / 18 IBUs

A traditional German Doppelbock using Munich malt and Bohemian Dark floor malted malt. Caramel and toffee flavor with slight fruity esters present. This beautiful dark copper hued beer has no hop profile to allow the wonderful malts to shine.

SOLD OUT – Wild Rice Amber

5.5% ABV / 22 IBUs

A full 75 lbs. of wild rice are used per batch, thrown straight into the mash. Not only do you get that wild rice aroma, but you get vanilla, nuttiness and a bit of dark fruit flavors. A deep color and medium body make this one beautiful beer.

Granola Girl

5.6% ABV / 22 IBUs

This beer is designed to show off the delicious malt that is golden naked oats. The addition of Honey Malt this year adds a nutty, grainy complexity. Mouthfeel is going to be smooth with a creamy satin like texture from the high protein rolled oats. East Kent Goldings hops are showcased in the nose with floral, light fruit, and herbal notes. Flavor has a mix of toast, nuts, and subtle berry. Cheers!

Maibock

7.0% ABV / 26 IBUs

Maibocks are all about showcasing premium light and bready malts and just enough hop flavor and aroma to balance the malt sweetness. This Maibock was brewed in January to give it the traditional 3 months lagering time. The result is a clean, balanced, malty spring lager.
