Brewed in celebration of Lent and Easter season, Carnevale is light bodied Saison, using Brettanomyces along with Amarillo and Simcoe hops to generate flavor and depth. Carnevale’s complexity grows with time. The citrus notes tend to wane and the wild yeast rears its wonderfully tasting head.

Totality stout brewed with honey aged in Basil Hayden whiskey barrels. Lime green wax.

After brewing B.O.R.I.S. The Crusher successfully for many years, our creative minds wander. We imagine a B.O.R.I.S. brewed with even better dark grain - the finest imported dark grain - for a smoother and mellower deep-roasted flavor. When we finally made our dreams become reality, it was a symphony of beautiful flavors, a higher level of B.O.R.I.S. born from our creativity, that deserves the name B.O.R.I.S. Reserve!

The history of the bible and religion is indeed the struggle of good vs. evil. Our Serpent’s Stout recognizes the evil of the dark side that we all struggle with. This is a massively thick and opaque beer that begs the saints to join the sinners in their path to a black existence.

Blending is a very important part of creating a balanced and drinkable beer, but also adds to its complexity of flavor, so once we fully committed to growing our barrel program, I started stockpiling big stouts for the various flavor profiles in anticipation of future releases. Without that type of preparation, barrel-aging can yield mixed results. Having reliable staples to pull from gives us more control of the finished product. This year's Autumn was really fun to brew because we also added a massive amount of oats making the beer extra creamy, and toasted coconut for a fresh, but desert-like flavor. This is one of the most complex vintages to date.

Welcome to Frucht, our land of fruited Berliner Weisse-style beers. Known for a tart flavor profile and traditionally low ABV, our German-style wheat beer gains even more funky notes and natural earthy-woodiness from fermentation in one of our twin oak foeder vessels - the largest known to be fabricated in this country. Each installment in the series features a new fruit, or Frucht, if we’re Sprechen sie Deutsch. Each installment in the series will feature a new fruit, or Frucht, if we’re Sprechen sie Deutsch. This installment has peaches added, which add a ripe, juicy sweet character to the already tart and racy beer.

Abbey style beers often emphasize layers of malt surrounded by yeast driven complexities. Our Lost and Found Abbey Ale is the result of the judicious, but not overpowering, use of crystal malts with a teasingly dry chocolate malt finish. There is a perception of warmth from the alcohol which blends very nicely keeping the malts from being too sweet. Lost and Found- Modeled after the great Trappist and Monastic beers that inspired the founding of our brewery. A richly deep garnet colored ale created from a blend of Domestic and imported malts. As part of our commitment to interesting brewing endeavors, Chef Vince created a special raisin puree for this beer. Malts, raisins and a fantastic yeast strain working in harmony produce a beer of amazing complexity and depth. Available in 750ml bottles and on draft at select inspired locations.

Fresh maple syrup is added to the boil and whole vanilla beans to each barrel to create unique flavors and sought after complexity. This beer is dangerously smooth and incredibly delicious.

Beret is as artistic as those who wear its namesake cap. Our brewers developed a silky, full-bodied wheat ale which we began fermenting with our house yeast strain. To finish the fermentation, we added our collection of barnyard bacteria, intended to slowly sour the ale, bringing out a slight funk and refreshing piquancy. Finally, a small dose of pureed raspberries were added for just a hint of fruity tannins, putting the berry in Beret.
