New Limited Edition Beer Kits
  • Québécois Quadruple Wheat Wine $40.50
    • The Québécois are proud, bold and fiercely loyal people that can't be understood after a few pints, and they sure can make a damn good beer. This quadruple wheat wine is very much along the lines of a strong belgian golden ale but with a wheat focus. The wheat adds a ready character and keeps the beer from being too dry and the addition of Grains of Paradise adds a spicy, peppery finish. This dangerously potent libation is a peace offering to our friends to the North. In all seriousness, sorry for stealing Shatner.....
    • Uses Wyeast 3864-PC Canadian/Belgian Ale
  • XX Ale $34.25
    • Crowded, polluted, foggy and dangerous: these were the streets of Victorian London. Porter was the everyday drink of the working man who would, on rare occasion, order a pint of something more special. Stock ales, what we now call Old Ales, were different in the fact they had been aged and blended to produce a much more flavorful beer. This 'aged' character was sought after and cherished so much so that these beers were nearly double the price of the regular offerings. This beer, with its dried dark fruit character exemplifies the base of these stock ales. Additionally, a small amount of Brettanomyces is used in combination with yeast to give that unique aged flavor. Drink this young for a rich fruity libation or let it age and you'll get notes of leather and dark cherry pie. If you ever wanted to know what a traditional stock ale tasted like, this is your chance.
    • Uses Wyeast 9097-PC Old Ale Blend
  • Imperial Slavic Ale $62.95
    • If California can have its double IPA's, why can't one of the finest hop growing regions in the world do it one better? This triple IPA clocks in with a face-melting 200+ IBU's given by a half pound of hops. We added three pounds on Orange blossom honey to this beast which lend a sweet citrus character that blends perfectly with the floral and pungent bouquet. At approx. 11% abv, this is one bad matka... can you handle it?
    • Uses Wyeast 9093-PC Imperial Blend
