SEASONAL BELGIAN ALE
Belgian Witbier - Unfiltered Belgian-style wheat beer.  Pale in color and light bodied yet very complex. A distinct yeast and the use of spices give it a fruity citrus flavor that is very refreshing. OG: 1.048; Color: 3; IBU: 17; Alc by Vol: 4.4%

Seasonal Beers on Tap as of July 1st

Hefeweizen

OG: 1.047   Color: 3   IBU: 12   Alc by Vol: 4.2%
This traditional unfiltered Bavarian Wheat beer is the perfect summer thirst quencher. Light and effervescent, it starts off with a refreshing tanginess and finishes with a distinct yeast character of bananas and cloves.

Hoppopotamus

OG: 1.082   Color: 14   IBU: 80   Alc by Vol: 7.9%
Also known as Double Red I.P.A., this strong red ale was brewed with a ton of specially selected grains for a sweet, caramel-like maltiness, and a ton of hops, for an intense bitterness and fragrant, citrusy hop aromas. It's big, hoppy, and obnoxious.

Irish Dry Stout

OG: 1.038   Color: 50   IBU: 20   Alc by Vol: 3.8%
Classic Irish stout, black in color, roasty malt flavor, pronounced dry bitterness, served on nitrogen for a creamy mouthfeel.

Maibock

OG: 1.077   Color: 5   IBU: 30   Alc by Vol: 7.5%
The return of our award-winning May classic. This lager has a pronounced bready-sweet malt flavor and aroma, moderate bitterness and a clean, dry finish. Winner of 1999 Gold medal and 2000 bronze medal at the Great American Beer Festival.
Awards: 1999 GABF Gold medal winner and 2000 GABF Bronze medal winner.

Weizenbock

OG: 1.070   Color: 13   IBU: 25   Alc by Vol: 7.5%
The grandfather of Weizen beers, this full-bodied ale is made with 45 % wheat, which contributes a slightly fruity malt flavor which is dominated by the bready malt character and the expected banana and clove flavors from the yeast.
