Two New Beers on tap! New 'Merica Pale and Hoppin' the Rails IPA!

We say "half full", would you like another?
Big news as we've been belting out some new brews. Our New 'Merica is a new American twist on an old English Pale ale style. Malty and bold with all American malts, and Hops, we of course ferment it with, you guessed it American yeast. It's aromatic citrusy, malty and hoppy. A great balanced beer.

Second on the list is the Hoppin' the Rails Double Dry Hopped IPA. It's low in ABV at 5.8%, dry, crisp, refreshing, and best of all hoppy. We threw a copious amount of Cascade, Chinook, and Columbus into the fermenter twice! The result is a delicious and easily quaffable IPA with a strong NW hop aroma.

Icefall Stout is what Fall is about.

Hey y'all y'all, watch out for the Icefall! We just tapped the Icefall Stout. This Oatmeal Stout is the real deal. Stouty, roasty, hoppy, dark delicious goodness is flowing from the tap.

We've also got the Oktoberfest Lager rocking. Yup, our first lager is deliciously smooth and malty, with just a little toasty bready yumminess. Come try the Katabatic Lager Experience.

Last, but not least, we have Anniversary Imperial Red cans in the taproom. The Imperial Red is 7.4% ABV and 55 IBU's. Have one in the taproom, or take one home, or a 4-pack. This is a special release anniversary beer, so we only have 2800 cans. You only get to be ONE once! This beer is able to be aged up to a year.

We also have a Mug Club exchange program! Now through October you can trade your Mug club in for $250 towards a Goldenstein, and you get $100 off the price of the stein. That means you pay just $650 for a Goldenstein lifetime membership. Which entitles you to 3 free pints a month, $1 off every pint for life, 15% off of swag, and free invitations to special beer tappings and events.

We will be raffling off a Goldenstein! $5 per ticket or 5 for $20 will get you a chance at getting 3 free beers a month, and $1 off a pint for life. You don't have to be present to win, but you have to buy a ticket if you want free beer. "It's like lotto, ya gotta be in it to win it!"

This beer is a Special Release and we will only be selling it at the party to start. If there is any left we will be selling them at the brewery and at a few select beer sellers afterwards. Another reason to attend.
