Day of Darkness Beers
Barrel Aged Sinister Minister- Bourbon/Amburana BA Belgian Quadrupel- 11.5% ABV- 12 oz $9, 5 oz $4.5
A rich and warming strong Belgian ale brewed with a bit of Munich Malt and Dark Crystal Malt for a rich malt character with notes of toasted bread and toffee. Dark Candi Syrup adds dark fruit and rum notes that pair well with the fruitiness and spiciness from the Belgian yeast. This version was aged for 4 months in Amburana wood barrels and then 20 months in Thornton Distilling Bourbon Barrels. Amburana is a South American wood that imparts a unique flavor of vanilla, cinnamon and baking spices.
Bourbon Barrel Aged I Must Break You- 2 Year Aged RIS- 11% ABV- 12 oz $9, 5 oz $4.5
Our version of an old school Russian Imperial Stout that is dryer and more roasty than most Imperial Stouts today. Brewed with roasted malts, crystal malts, flaked oats, and brown sugar, for a complex blend of coffee, dark chocolate, toffee, and dark fruits that finishes smooth without being sweet. This version was aged for a full 2 years in Region 5 Bourbon barrels for additional complexity and notes of Bourbon, vanilla, stone fruits, oak, and spice.
Dark Water- Imperial Black IPA- 9% ABV, 80 IBU– 12 oz $8, 5 oz $4
The dark color and soft coco character come from Midnight Wheat malt which is very dark but lacks the roasty “bite” of stouts and porters. We also use a bit of Munich malt for some toasty malt character and a little brown sugar for a hint of molasses. The beer is hopped with Mosaic and Citra hops for a pungent hop character with notes of grapefruit, berry, tangerine, melon, passion fruit, and pine.
Dark Helmet- Schwarzbier (Black Lager)- 5.5% ABV, 20 IBU- 16 oz $6, 5 oz $2.5
A traditional German Lager brewed with de-husked roasted malts to give the beer a subtle roasted character that is smoother and less bitter than a stout or porter. Our version has a toasty malt background and a nice, coco character without being sweet.
Dunkelschizer- Dunkelweizen- 6% ABV, 10 IBU- 16 oz $6, 5 oz $2.5
Dunkelweizen is a dark version of the classic German Hefeweizen. The same yeast is used giving the beer the banana and clove characteristics typical of German Wheat beers. The darker color comes from the use of Munich malt and a touch of crystal malt which gives the beer a toasted bread character with a bit of sweetness.
Mixed Berry Blanc- Foeder Aged Brett Berliner Weisse- 4.5% ABV- 11 oz $7, 5 oz $3.5
Our take on the classic German style sour wheat beer is co-fermented with Lactobacillus bacteria and a blend of fruit forward Brettanomyces and then aged in an Oak Foeder. The result is a more complex version of the style with a smooth but noticeable sourness and notes of tropical and stone fruit, citrus, oak, and a mild funk. After Foeder aging, this version has an additional aging in stainless with real Raspberry and Blackberry juice. Adding the juice to the fermenter allows the simple sugars to ferment, preventing the beer from becoming too sweet. FOBAB 2024 Bronze Medal Winner (Non-fruited base beer)

IPA/Hoppy
Roundabout- Hybrid Pale Ale- 5.4% ABV, 20 IBU- 16 oz $7, 5 oz $3
Brewed to highlight the best aspects (in our opinion) of Traditional and New England Style IPA/Pale Ales. This beer has low bitterness and a big fruit forward “juicy” hop character like a New England IPA. It also has a little bit of piney hop character and is drier, more drinkable, and refreshing like a traditional IPA.
Dave’s Pale Ale- Citra/Galaxy Pale Ale- 5.5% ABV, 40 IBU- 16 oz $7, 5 oz $3
Brewed using a “Hop Bursting” technique where all of the hops are added towards the end of the boil and as dry hops. This gives the beer a smoother bitterness with lots of hop aroma and flavor. The hops used are Citra and Australian Galaxy. The beer is named after home brewer Dave Fetty, who has won several awards with this recipe.
**On Deck**Crank It Hop- Strata/Huell Melon Hopped IPA- 6% ABV, 50 IBU- 16 oz $7, 5 oz $3
Each batch of Crank It Hop features different hops. This batch features Strata and Huell Mellon. Strata is a newer hop with layered fruit flavors including Strawberry, Passion Fruit, Grapefruit, complemented by a bit of dank pine. Huell Melon is a newer German hop with notes of Melon, Strawberry, and a slightly Herbal character.
Crank It Fresh- Wet Hopped IPA- 6% ABV, 50 IBU- 16 oz $8, 5 oz $4
This is a special version of Crank It Hop using freshly picked “wet” hops. For this batch we got fresh Idaho 7 hops and used them within 48 hours of harvest. Idaho 7 is a newer American hop with notes of Tangerine and Orange Marmalade up front and a pleasant earthy character reminiscent of Earl Gray Tea.
Crank It Hype- New England Style IPA- 7% ABV, 25 IBU- 16 oz $8, 5 oz $4
Fuller in body and less bitter than a traditional IPA but our version stops short of being sweet like a lot of examples, keeping the beer more drinkable. 4+ pounds per barrel of hops are used, all of which are added in the whirlpool and as dry hops. This extracts less bitterness from the hops, and gives the beer a strong, “juicy” hop flavor.
Crank It Dank- West Coast Style IPA- 7% ABV, 60 IBU– 16 oz $7, 5 oz $3
West Coast IPAs are typically brewed to showcase hops with very little malt character. Our version is brewed with a very simple malt bill of Pale and Pilsner malt and a bit of sugar to dry the beer out. It is aggressively hopped with Ekuanot, Citra and Mosaic. These are newer hop varieties that are bred to have a strong, pungent aroma and flavor often described as “dank”.
Prediction?…Pain!- Imperial IPA- 8.5% ABV, 85 IBU- 12 oz $8, 5 oz $4
More balanced than a lot of IIPAs with a focus more on flavor and aroma hops than bitterness. Hopped with Ekuanot, Simcoe and Mosaic. These hops create a complex blend of flavors including citrus, tropical fruit, berry, passion fruit, peach, and pine.
**On Deck**Lil’ Pain!- Session IPA- 4.7% ABV, 35 IBU- 16 oz $7, 5 oz $3
This version of Prediction?…Pain! is brewed with a lot less malt to be an easy drinking quencher. We used the same hop varieties, and the same amount of aroma and dry hops as regular Pain. Yes you read that right, this beer uses the same amount of flavor/aroma hops as our Imperial IPA resulting in a huge hop aroma and flavor that will keep you coming back for more.
Light
Buzz Lite Beer- Honey Golden Ale- 5.5% ABV, 13 IBU- 16 oz $6, 5 oz $2.5
Very drinkable and refreshing but still full flavored. This beer is brewed with local Honey from Smith-Talbot Apiaries. The honey flavor and sweetness are accentuated by the addition of Honey Malt and Flaked Corn. *Gluten Reduced*
**Back Soon**Trail Lite- Czech Style Light Lager- 3.7% ABV, 18 IBU- 16 oz $6, 5 oz $2.5
The perfect thirst quencher after a day on the trails or if you just want to enjoy a few. Our take on a traditional Czech 10 Plato beer is very light and refreshing but still flavorful with a bready malt character and a light, floral, spicy hop character from Czech Saaz hops.
Ladder Lager- Pilsner- 5.2% ABV, 30 IBU 16 oz $6, 5 oz $2.5
Brewed in collaboration with local IAFF 3165 and the Tri-State Fire Fighters. A portion of the proceeds go to support the Shield 23 Foundation that helps support Fire Fighters battling cancer. This Czech style Pilsner is extremely well balanced with a clean, bready malt character from Pilsner and a bit of Vienna malt, and just enough hop presence to give the beer a crisp, dry finish. Czech Saaz hops provide the floral, slightly spicy hop flavor and aroma.
Hefe’nother- German Hefeweizen- 5.5% ABV, 14 IBU- 16 oz $6, 5 oz $2.5
A light and refreshing beer brewed with German Pilsner and wheat malts. The traditional German Weizen yeast provides the spicy and fruity character often described as banana and clove.
Imperial L’Oak-O- Mexican Lager- 5.5% ABV, 9 IBU- 16 oz $6, 5 oz $2.5
This light and extremely drinkable lager will have you wishing you were sitting on the beach. Brewed with Pilsner malt, Corn, and a bit of Vienna malt for a bit of complexity and sweetness.
Dark
Udderly Black- Milk Stout- 5.3% ABV, 20 IBU- 16 oz $6, 5 oz $2.5
A blend of roasted malts give the beer its rich chocolate and coffee character. The body and sweetness are provided by crystal malts and the addition of Lactose (Milk Sugar) which is not fermented by beer yeast.

Apricot Straw- Foeder Aged Brett Saison- 6% ABV, 23 IBU- 11 oz $7, 5 oz $3.5
Fermented with Belgian Saison yeast and then aged for a year in an Oak Foeder with our custom blend of fruit forward Brettanomyces. The Saison yeast and Brett produce a strong fruitiness with notes of tropical fruits (pineapple, mango), citrus, cherry, berries, a mild earthy funk, and a slightly tart, dry finish. After Foeder aging, this version has an additional aging in stainless with real Apricot juice. Adding the juice to the fermenter allows the simple sugars to ferment, preventing the beer from becoming too sweet.
**On Deck**Blanc- Foeder Aged Brett Berliner Weisse- 4.5% ABV- 11 oz $6, 5 oz $3
Our take on the classic German style sour wheat beer is co-fermented with Lactobacillus bacteria and a blend of fruit forward Brettanomyces and then aged in an Oak Foeder. The result is a more complex version of the style with a smooth but noticeable sourness and notes of tropical and stone fruit, citrus, oak, and a mild funk.
