British Dark Mild with English Toffee 

4.0% ABV 19 IBU 20 SRM              

Not all those who wander are not lost!  Coddiwomple: “Wandering intently, going no where in particular”. 

A Dark Mild is an easy drinking historic British Countryman’s beer brewed with English Toffee

and full of English flavor; a brilliant companion on your next Coddiwomple!

Cranberry Belgian Saison     

7.1% ABV 27 IBU 11 SRM                                

As the holidays threaten the perennial onslaught of family, there are those times when you just

have to “hit the sauce”!  Nine pounds of tart cranberry puree complements the undertones of spicy/fruity

Belgian yeast to make this late tasty autumn, ale a great excuse to be Thankful!!

​

Love is in the Ale!   

$9/12oz pour  $3/4oz  $18/growler fill       

Chocolate Strong Porter                                              

9.1% ABV 31IBU 48 SRM                       

In late winter’s lengthening days, urges spring forth from our often too dormant root chakra stirred by

yearnings for bright verdant mornings. This provocative, rich sipping elixir is best shared with

a very close friend! AleMan will sit this one out for the sake of discretion, so you two are on your own! 

Happy Valentine's Day!

​

Snappy Wit                     

$9/Pint  $3/4oz  $13/growler fill   

Belgian WitBier     

5.2% ABV 19 IBU 3 SRM

Sharing a Snappy Wit can make you the life of the party!  But Shakespeare warns, "Better a witty fool than

a foolish wit".   This traditional Belgian white (wheat)  beer has the crispness of wheat  with  the

smooth  addition of oats, enhanced with a slightly spicy garnish of sweet orange peel and coriander seed.

When you’re at your Wits end, let Aleman pour you another!

​

Scrum  all gone!  more soon!

$9/Pint  $3/4oz  $13/growler fill 

Rugged Brown Ale               

7.4%        37 IBU         24 SRM

Flex the muscles in your liquid grain storage unit and get down in the tight five for a Scrum!  Plenty of malty

muscle smacks of elegance thanks to the “flankers and 8-man” hops additions of Challenger and Tetnanger.

When less than rugged is just not enough, gather 'yer mates and dig deep into a Scrum!

​​​​

Immense Intense Phat Alpha 

$9/Pint  $3/4oz  $14/growler fill 

West Coast Imperial India Pale Ale

Served with fresh Citra hops through the Binford 2000 InfusiBEERator !!

8.0% ABV    111 IBU    9 SRM

Decadent alpha acids, bodacious ABV, libidinous hops flavor and lascivious hops aroma abound as Citra,

Amarrillo, Ekuanot and Mosaic bare all, making this sassy whirlpool and dry hopped West Coast Double IPA

irresistibly compelling! Why just have a repressed IPA when you can get SEXY PHAT?!

​​

My Goodness!   

$9/Pint  $3/4oz  on Nitro. no growler fills       

Dry Irish Stout            

4.0% ABV 41 IBU 39 SRM

It was a cool misty evening in Dublin Town.  Amidst the din of low voices and laughter, Barry,

his Athair and Seanathair sat on that same, worn bench sippin’ a pint o’ Stout, by the crackling hearth

at the Brazen Head Pub. Barry held his glass up in a toast, “For every wound a balm,

for every sorrow a cheer, for every storm a calm, for every thirst a Beer!  Erin go Bragh!”

​

Canterbury Ale 

$9/Pint  $3/4oz  $12/growler fill

American Pale Ale    

5.5% ABV    38 IBU    8 SRM          

You don't have to travel to Sierra Nevada to find Poetic balance.  

"Now that I’ve drunk a draught of quern-ripe ale,

By God it stands to reason I can strike


On some good story that you will all like!"

The Canterbury Tales, Geoffrey Chaucer

Citrusy cascade hops and crisp, bready malt destine this golden, all American Pale Ale

to become a refreshing home-town classic!

​

$9/Pint  $3/4oz  $12/growler fill

Light Pub Ale                 

5.0% ABV  17 IBU  4 SRM

Super light and refreshing.  Don’t worry!  We know you’re on your way.  We’ll leave the “Pub Light” on for you!

​

Galaxius Maximus  

$9/Pint  $3/4oz  $15/growler fill

New England India Pale Ale           

7.2%ABV   54 IBU     6 SRM          

Out of this world, hazy-juicy tropical Galaxy Hops flavor! “I’m givin’ her all she’s got Captain!” Galaxy Hops

in the mash for stability, first wort for bitterness, in the boil for flavor, late kettle for flavor, primary for

biotransformation and double dry hopped in secondary fermentation for a super nova explosion of aroma

and a vast constellation of stellar, tropical juicy flavor!

​

Be Hoppy!              

$9/Pint  $3/4oz  $12/growler fill

Classic Boston IPA         

5.9% ABV 43 IBU 7 SRM

Don’t worry, Be Hoppy!  An old-fashioned malty base balanced with delicate floral and citrus notes

from Cascade hops is the signature of this nostalgic, classically balanced, super- sessionable throwback IPA.

​

 We’ve been Jammed!  

$9/12oz pour  $3/4oz  $18/growler fill 

Raspberry Sour (contains lactose)

5.0% ABV  27 IBU  Red SRM

Next time you are tracking some great beers out in the middle of nowhere, don’t let just any weird little

brewery give you the Raspberry! Hang on to your Dark Helmet and pucker up with this Jammin’,

mouth watering, fruity sour ale that puts all other fruity sours off the radar!

​

Hey! McCloud! Get off of my Ewe!

$9/12oz pour  $3/4oz  $16/growler fill 

Scottish Wee Heavy

Aged In a Steadfast Distilling Whisky Barrel

10% ABV  29 IBU  25 SRM

There are only a wee few things that can warm a fella on a bitter windswept winters’ eve in the highlands,

and this big, brawny, malty Scottish Winter Warmer is preferred!

​

Murphy’s Red Friday  

 $9/Pint  $3/4oz  NO GROWLERS

Whiskey oak Aged Maple Irish/American Red    

7.5% ABV 27 IBU 14 SRM                                 

T’ Luck o’ t’ Irish can often drive even less star-crossed folk than poor Murphy t’ drink!  When t’ numbers jus’ don’ add up at t’ end of t’ week, and Saint Paddy’s not answerin’ yer heart-felt prayers, bless yer soul, AleMan is ‘der fer ya wit’ ‘dis new take on an old fashioned, sorrow-drowning Strong Irish Red. A touch of our own maple syrup sweetens t’s pot o’ red gold t’ make t’ end o’ life’s worst weeks feel like there’s nothin’ so bad that it couldn’t be worse! (read t’s wit’ yer best Irish Brogue, Begorrah!) And what could not be worse than spending a couple months inside a whiskey barrel  (the beer I mean!)

​​​

Granite Ledge Stout         

$9/Pint  $3/4oz  $13/growler fill 

Espresso-Oatmeal Stout     

6.0% ABV 29 IBU 40 SRM

Canterbury’s own Granite Ledge Coffee, Oats and Beer!  The perfect breakfast drink! A judicious dose

of African espresso complements the dark roasty malts of this silky smooth oatmeal stout. 

​

Your Father Smelt of Elderberries 

$9/Pint  $3/4oz  $15/growler fill     

Saison            

7.5%   25 IBU   11 SRM                    

Sometimes the hunt for new and interesting beers is like the search for the “Holy Grail”. 

If you show up at your beer snob friend’s house with this beer they likely will not say “I already got one!”

Elderberries from right here on the farm and Brandy Oak ageing lend an earthy-dark fruit backdrop

to the singularly unique, spicy/peppery “outrageous accent” of the Saison yeast.

(no hamsters were injured in the making of this taunting brew)

ON CASK! (no growlers)​

 Big Ben

$9/Pint  $2.50/4oz  no growlers          

Extra Special Bitter (British pale ale)  ON CASK!

5.7% ABV   39 IBU    11 SRM

A great British Bitter is one of the gold standards that beers around the world are gauged. Of course “Bitter”

doesn’t really mean "bitter".  This is a complex yet delightfully quaffable pale ale that is so

quintessentially, brilliantly British, you’ll want to set your clock back just so you can enjoy one more!

 

 Irish Rebel Ale

$9/Pint  $2.50/4oz  no growlers

Irish Red Ale

On Steadfast Spirits Whiskey Barrel Cask

4.5% ABV   22 IBU   12 SRM

With a Rebel Ale, you’ll cry More! More! MORE! An Irish Red on Whisky Barrel Cask!! A nod to Mike Green

and my friends at the Rebel Collective for making great beery chunes and to revolutionaries everywhere.
