Porter #3
Porter #3
Brewed in the vein of a traditional English porter, our porter has a distinct-yet-smooth roasted chocolate, light coffee flavor, nicely balanced with the mild hop nose characteristic of premium noble hops. ABV 5.7%.
English Brown
English Brown
Fall is here, which means it's time to get our English Brown back on tap! This light-bodied brown ale has a slightly sweet aroma with notes of brown bread and minimal hoppiness. Less malt-forward than some of our other English ales, it has flavors of caramel, toffee, hints of nutty notes on the palate and is exceptionally clean. ABV: 5.0%
Czech Pils
Czech Pils
Our flagship beer, the Czech Pils pours a rich golden color. Smooth and crisp with a rich malty palate, the Pils features the prevalent flavor of the Czech hops, which balance the maltiness with a spicy bitterness. ABV 5.0%
Granat (Czech Amber Lager)
Granat (Czech Amber Lager)
Sporting a rich ruby-red color, the Granat (Czech amber – or garnet – lager) is a semi-dark lager rarely seen outside the Czech Republic. Ours is an easy-to-drink lager with slight bitterness, recognizable caramel aroma, and bright clean finish. ABV 5.3%
Czech Dark
Czech Dark
A maltier sibling of Czech Pils, the Czech Dark Lager pours a clear rich dark with amber hues around the edges. Slightly lower in alcohol than the Pils, the Dark Lager raises the malt with notes of stone fruit and chocolate but finishes crisp and clean with that classic pilsner hoppiness. ABV 4.5%
2024 Anniversary Imperial Pilsner
2024 Anniversary Imperial Pilsner
Seven years ago, we started our humble little operation. Every year since, we have released a new version of our Anniversary Imperial Pilsner, and this year is no different! This year's version features fresh Azacca hops, making for a smooth, delicious beer that drinks like a lager but has the fruity hoppy punch of an IPA -- the best of both worlds. ABV 8.3%
The Word Red IPA
The Word Red IPA
Fall is in the air, so it's time to bust out our fall IPA! The Word Red IPA in an unapologetically Northwest IPA, featuring classic NW hops (Mt. Hood, Liberty and Sterling) in copious amounts. A healthy dose of rye helps give it a hint of fall spice. ABV: 5.9%
Nosh Doom IPA
Nosh Doom IPA
The Pacific Northwest is synonymous with big, hoppy IPAs, and Nosh Doom reflects that style with its big hop flavors and aromas, all perfectly balanced by a subtle malt character. This crisp, hoppy brew (think melon, lemon and citrus) is hugely refreshing and will always satisfy, regardless of Seattle’s weather. (Bonus points for knowing what you're actual saying in Czech whenever you order this beer!) ABV: 6.5%
Scottish Ale
Scottish Ale
We’re greeting fall with our popular Scottish Ale (not to be confused with a Scotch Ale, its higher ABV cousin) — the perfect marriage of flavor and drinkability. Its bread-crusty malt flavor and slightly sweet fruit esters come together in this copper beauty to make an extremely delicious ale. ABV 5.7%
Winter Saison
Winter Saison
The winter version of our seasonal saison lineup. Featuring Grains of Paradise, rye, chocolate rye, Belgian chocolate malt and black currant. The perfect saison to help get you through the dark, rainy winter months! ABV: 7.1%
Notorious BSG
Notorious BSG
A trickster of an ale, our Belgian Strong Golden hides some kick behind its deceptive pale, easy-drinking appearance. It's smooth and medium-bodied, and has malty, fruit notes with just a hint of spice. The dry finish lets a slight warmth sneak through - a too late announcement of its 9.9% ABV.
