Local Lemongrass Sparkling Water
// Alcohol Free

After we realized how many cans of Waterloo our team was crushing each day, we decided to take our sparkling water security into our own hands. With two wells at a combined depth of nearly 1,000 that gives us all of our brewing water, we knew that with our own unique source of Appalachian well water, that we could offer water with superior taste and a true sense of place.

Always flavored with real, whole, fresh and actual ingredients, this seasonal favorite is brewed with our very own estate-grown lemongrass. Quench away!

Available at all taproom locations starting today 09.04!

AUTUMNAL IPA
// a west coast-style red india pale ale dry-hopped with citra, simcoe and idaho 7


Mashed, as always, with local barley, a helping of dextrin malt along with a smattering of the worlds finest crystal, honey and caramel malts. Intensely hopped with a contemplative blend of extra choice citra, simcoe and idaho 7. Fermented with our preferred house “westy” yeast strain for maximum crushability.

Meaning “of or pertaining to autumn/fall”, Autumnal is a brand new west coast crusher that aims to help celebrate the ushering of autumn by way of the upcoming equinox. Though the equinox is still a month away, this is the liminal golden season where days become shorter and cooler. Seasons, much like fresh IPAs, are fleeting, so get after these long days with this hoppy treat in hand.

For those who have been in craft beer as long as we have, this ruby red WCIPA will be a welcomed treat. The inevitable cooler temps simply beg for some malty structure and this new IPA provides just that. Inspired by amber-y IPAs from the early aughts, satisfying malty dad types and hop heads alike, this is the beer you’ll find us getting acquainted with this autumn.

Available in cans starting this Friday 09.04

STEINFEST
// a stone-boiled smoked autumnal-style lagerbier


Crafted in collaboration with our lager-making homies Zillicoah Beer Co. of Asheville, North Carolina. Mashed with a purposeful blend of local pilsner and munich malts along with a pinch of smoked and dextrin malt. Boiled in our dainty, open top oak foeder with local granite rocks, set ablaze with local oak and cherry wood. Utilizing the blazing hot rocks as a driving force to achieve color, we did not use any dark malts in this beer. Fermented cool with our preferred house lager yeast strain. Lagered cold for a long maturation period until crisp and crushable.

Perhaps our favorite time of year to pair beers with weather, this iteration of a festbier pairs perfectly with late night roaring fires, foggy sunrise boat outings and a local brat, nestled inside a salted pretzel bun. Prost!

Get it in cans at all three taproom locations starting tomorrow 08.28
