Our Beers
Modern, Yet Traditional
We brew on a modern, custom-designed 10-barrel (310 gal.) brewhouse capable of using old-world methods of step mashing and decoction. The malt we use for our lagers is specially crafted to shine using these techniques. We also our system to whip up more modern beers like our hazy IPAs.
Here’s a sampling of some of our core beers and what time of year they’re available. For an up-to-date tap list, view our individual locations pages.
Lagerbier (Bier = Beer)
We have a passion for the lagers made by the small breweries around Bamberg, in the Franconian region of Germany. We brew with 100% German-sourced ingredients, using their traditional methods of step mashing and decoction – resulting in in beers that are full-bodied, yet finish dry. All of these beers are naturally carbonated for a soft, smooth mouthfeel.
