Dogfish Head 90 Minute IPA

Esquire Magazine calls Dogfish Head’s 90 Minute I.P.A., "perhaps the best I.P.A. in America." An Imperial I.P.A. brewed to be savored from a snifter. A big beer with a great malt backbone that stands up to the extreme hopping rate.

Moo Thunder Stout

This stout beer pays tribute to the Butternuts Brewery's former life as a dairy farm. It's a more drinkable version of the Stout breed than its heavy, boorish and smelly European sisters. We use lactose sugar for body and mouthfeel; not too strong, not too viscous at 4.9% abv. Unlike a true bovine it has a malty, roasty aroma and a dry finish but no tail or teats, and leaves no unsightly cow pies laying around the yard for you to step in.

4.9% ABV

Dogfish Head 90 Minute IPA

Harpoon UFO Pale Ale

UFO Pale Ale is a twist on a traditional British Pale Ale. It pours a vibrant amber color with a medium malt body and an assertive hop character throughout.

Tröegs Troegenator "Double Bock"

The Troegenator Double Bock, is a dark, strong lager (8.2% abv). It pours into a glass with a bronze to brown color, fluffy white head and bready malt aroma. The Troegenator leaves a rich, warming feeling and subtle spicy flavors. The style, Double Bock, dates back a century or so ago. During periods of fasting without solid foods, the Monastic brewers relied on the double bock; a stronger, richer beer to fulfill their basic nutritional needs. Known to them as "liquid bread," a double bock has a strong malt aroma and chewy rich body. Traditionally these brewers ended the name of their double bock with the suffix "ator", ex. Celabrator, Illuminator, Subliminator... In the spirit of the tradition we give you the Troegenator to provide warmth and richness through the early spring months. A double bock of epic proportions, beware, the Troegenator is deceiving smooth and delicious.

Food compliments
Since Troegenator is a big beer, it is perfect with big beef—like grilled steaks and stews. It can also serve as a nice compliment to sweet, non-chocolate based desserts.

8.2% ABV

Lake Placid Winter Lager

With the mountain town of Lake Placid being the Winter Sports Capital of the World, Winter Lager, a full bodied, malty, dark German Lager, is the perfect fit for celebrating the winter season. Lake Placid salutes their international roots by brewing Winter Lager with a selection of deep and dark United States, Canadian, and Belgian Malts balanced smoothly with hops from Germany and the United States. A medium-bodied bock beer, this brew uses biscuit and crystal malts as well as noble European hops. The resulting deep amber beer is dry and flavorful, perfect for a cold Lake Placid winter.

Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout

This is the famous Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout, our award-winning rendition of the Imperial Stout style once made exclusively for Catherine the Great. We use three mashes to brew each batch of this beer, achieving a luscious deep dark chocolate flavor through a blend of specialty roasted malts. We brew it every year for the winter season. It is delicious when newly bottled, but also ages beautifully for years.

Harpoon Celtic Ale

Harpoon Celtic Ale is an Irish red ale. In its first year of production, it was available only on tap in the Greater Boston area. This was Harpoon’s salute to and the celebration of St Patrick. The following year it became Harpoon’s official spring seasonal beer.

Harpoon Celtic Ale features a deep amber color. The flavor is malty and complex. Celtic Ale has a moderate hop finish that, along with the generous amounts of malt, makes for a medium bodied, smooth, rich beer. Try serving Celtic Ale with a hearty stew… the beer’s robust character will complement the bold flavors.

The overall character is a complex maltiness with a deep amber color.

Innis & Gunn Scottish Oak Aged Beer

Oak aged like no other beer…
No other beer is brewed the same way as Innis & Gunn, or for so long. It's a unique process that marries traditional, highly skilled craftsmanship with a unique modern innovation.

We go deeper into the oak...
After our barrels have been filled with beer, they are locked inside a traditional 'Dunnage' warehouse to absorb the flavours in the oak grain - hints of vanilla, citrus and toffee. This takes a minimum of 30 days.

77 days to mature...
The barrels are then emptied and blended. Maturation then continues for a further 47 days in a 'marrying tun', where the flavours fall into perfect balance.

From chaos comes consistency…
Being a natural process, every barrel matures in a different way and at a different speed, imparting different flavours to the beer inside. We nose and taste the flavour of every individual barrel. Only when we deem it perfect does the beer 'make the blend'

So called because of the immediate ruinous effect on your palate. 100+ IBUs. Bracingly bitter. Thick, pungent hop aroma.

Southampton Altbier

Altbiers (or Alts) are hybrids of an ale and a lager. Altbiers are made using an ale yeast but fermented at cooler temperatures closer to lager beer. The result is an ale with less pronounced fruitiness than typical ales. Additionally, Altbiers are aged colder for a longer period of time, again similar to lagers. This more expensive and time consuming process tends to smooth out the beer and give it a cleaner, lager-like finish. Classic Altbiers have a malty flavor, subtle fruitiness and a clean finish.

Southampton Altbier is made in the tradition of the classic Altbiers from the city of Düsseldorf in Northern Germany. Ours uses four grains and two hop varieties to make a complex, yet deceptively drinkable beer. It’s malty with a refined hop note and a crisp finish. Southampton Altbier is refreshing and extremely balanced.

Alts are unique; less fruity than most ales but with the crisp drinkability of a lager.....let this one surprise your senses!

Inspired by strong European beers and developed to a closely guarded secret recipe, Discovery is brewed with a strong body, crisp taste and a refreshing flavour, losing none of the taste but all of the allergens.  Don't let the "organic" or "natural" label scare you, this is a great classic "English Strong Ale".

Weyerbacher "Old Heathen Imperial Stout"

Next we have Weyerbacher "Old Heathen Imperial Stout" which pulls in a B+ from BA and a solid 96 from RB. Here's what they say about it...

Rich, velvety and deliciously complex, Old Heathen (8.0% ABV) is a truly distinctive stout. We use seven types of malt and two varieties of hops to bring forth this big brew. Quite robust and roasty on the palate, Old Heathen Imperial Stout has a wonderfully fruity nose and a moderately dry finish. The taste is highly complex - perhaps you'll even discern notes of espresso or chocolate.

Old Heathen Imperial Stout is our interpretation of a beer style that originated in the 18th century. Brewed in England and exported to Germany, Scandinavia and Russia, these beers became fashionable among the members of the Czar's court. In order to survive long voyages they were brewed with high alcohol content to prevent spoilage.
Like most of our beers, Weyerbacher Old Heathen is a perfect accompaniment to foods. Try it with rich stews, oysters, caviar or roasted meats. Old Heathen is also a perfect companion to chocolate desserts.
