Wintergreen IPA – India Pale Ale – 7.4% abv, 81 ibu

IPA will always be a poplar style. This new batch includes a touch od winter as real spruce tips were included in the boil. Ridiculous amounts of Citra and Simcoe hops express themselves in an extremely pungent aroma with a beautifully balanced malt background. But honestly, some beers just speak for themselves.

5 Blend (Seasonal) – Belgian Rye Saison – 7.0% abv, 18 ibu

A traditionally seasonal ale delicious enough to brew all year long. This Franco – Belgian style beer is fermented unusually warm to produce endless amounts of flavor including pineapple, bubblegum, and white peppercorn.
