Our Beer

Accordance

Dark Czech Lager

4.6% ABV

Floor-malted Bohemian pilsner supports caramel and roasted malts in this rich and spry dark lager. Expect impressions of cocoa powder, toffee, and cookie dough on a crisp and snappy body. Enjoy!

Beth

Saison conditioned wtih Brettanomyces Burxellensis

6.7% ABV

Here’s our house Saison, perhaps our favorite style ever. It’s rustic yet refined, and pairs perfectly with great food and good cheer.

CHOCOLATE GEARBOX

Export Stout w/ Cacao & Vanilla

8% ABV

Dry and roasty, this Foreign Extra-inspired sipper takes the path less travelled after conditioning on cacao nibs and vanilla. Expect a fully attenuated beer that still delivers the big chocolate energy you know and love!

Comity

Biere de Coupage

6.4% ABV

This bright and refreshing beer features two parts RTB Saison and one part Sundial Saison, which was pulled solera-style from a single barrel featuring a mix of three different brews. This blend is an expression of our shared affinity for farmhouse and mixed-culture beers.

Definitional Drift

Modern Pale Ale

5.7% ABV

This beer is hazy, but it isn’t a hazy. It’s soft and fruity, but also dry and properly bitter. It’s hoppy and spritzy and nimble and wry. It’s a way forward for us, and you should come with!

Easy Hour

Altbier

5.8% ABV

Our take on the wonderful Altbier style is malty, crisp, and properly bitter, with notes of pumpernickel, chestnuts, and a dusting of baker’s chocolate.

ELIZABETH

Farmhouse Ale

7% ABV

Saison fermented in stainless and then aged with our house mixed culture for one year in a neutral oak barrel

Engine

Oak Conditioned Rye Pale Ale

5.4% ABV

Malted and crystal rye add heft and spice to this hearty beer. Toasted oak brings warming vanillin, a hint of cinnamon, and elegant structure.

Enologica 2022

Wild Ale Brewed with Wine Grapes

7.6% ABV

A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Grenache grapes aged on our Foederbeer in second-use Pinot Noir wine barrels for 18 months.

Faster Now

Hazy IPA

6.7% ABV

Hopped with Citra, Nectaron, and Galaxy

Fountain of Gold

Belgian Pale Ale

5.9% ABV

Bottle conditioned with Brettanomyces bruxellensis on 1/19/22. Herbal sweet tea on the nose leads to a dry, spicy, refreshing sip. This is our tribute to one of the world’s finest beers, and we’re happy to share it with you on Orval Day 2022!

Into the Tilt

American IPA

5.8% ABV

Dank, resinous, and citrusy in turn, this expressively hoppy beer cycles through waves of nostalgia before returning to the present with a sticky resolve. We dig it.

Just Add Baguette

Grisette

4.6% ABV

Our house Grisette bottle conditioned.

Melts into Air

California-style Pilsner

5.6% ABV

We took pilsner malt and some rice flakes, then T-90 hop stood, incognito-hop dipped, Spectrum-hop oiled, and Cryo-DDH dry hopped for good measure, all while listening to Pet Sounds on repeat. Voila, California Pilsner!

Observer & Observed – Maple Coffee

BBA Imperial Stout w/ Cinnamon, Coffee, and Vanilla

13.5% ABV

A blend of two stouts, one aged for two years in Elijah Craig 12-year bourbon barrels, the other for one year in Willet bourbon barrels. This is a big, rich, luxurious beer that pairs best with bottle shares and good company. Dosed with maple and coffee.

RTB Lager

Light Lager

4.4% ABV

Here’s an easygoing testament to the power of simple, quality ingredients brewed with care. Enjoy!

RTB Zwickel

Unfiltered Bohemian Pils

5.25% ABV

If you like lager this is your beer. Zwickel as a style encompasses any unfiltered European lager, offering the closest thing to a backstage pass you can get without joining the brewers’ tribe. This one is based on a Bohemian-style Pilsner- malty, spicy-saazy, and lightly yeasty. It’s gorgeous, fresh, and we worked really hard not to drink it all!

Single Barrel Stout

BBA Imperial Stout

12.5% ABV

Collaboration stout with Spears Bourbon and Burgers in Wheeling, IL. Rich Imperial Stout aged for one year in a single Maker’s Mark barrel

Thither They Return

Franconian-style Rotbier

5.4% ABV

Returning by popular demand (from Lane and Ryan) this Franconian-style Rotbier is a beautiful thing. If roses are not rot (and they certainly are in Franconia, Germany), you just know this lager is as malty, beguilling, and crisp as violet is blue! Hardee har, right!?

Warbler Vivant

Dark Mild

3.5% ABV

This Dark Mild Ale pairs nicely with easygoing sessions and comfy sweaters. It presents malty notes of chocolate, breadcrust, toffee, nuts, and red fruits. Flavorful yet as well mannered as the style suggests, we hope you enjoy it now and again. 

winder

West Coast IPA

7.1% ABV

Lightly malty canvass supports bright, resinous hops and a supple bitterness that’s easy to cozy up to. Featuring Idaho 7 Cryo, Sultana Salvo, Nectaron, & Simcoe Cryo
