BITTER GEEZER
English-style ESB
5.5% abv

Bitter Geezer is a true-to-style ESB brewed exclusively with premium ingredients imported from England including Floor-Malted Maris Otter barley, lightly roasted biscuit malts, caramel rye, and a generous portion of East Kent Golding hops.

Bitter Geezer is among the Top 20 highest rated ESBs on the planet via Untappd. Come see why it's one of the highest rated examples of the style and compare it to its barleyw**e counterpart, Elder Geezer!

Technically Bitter Geezer is a Strong Bitter, but in America that style has become synonymous with ESB (Extra Special Bitter). Expect notes of toasted almonds, English biscuits fresh from the oven, brown bread, sun kissed raisins and a touch of earthy English hops.

FRESH FROZEN CITRA
Fresh Hop IPA
6.5% abv

The next iteration of our Fresh Frozen series has arrived! Fresh Frozen Citra is a Fresh Hop IPA brewed in the West Coast-style that is dry-hopped exclusively with Citra Cryo Fresh hops.

Cryo Fresh is a new advanced hop product that involves freezing the hops with liquid nitrogen immediately after being harvested (hops are typically dried with hot air after harvest to make them shelf-stable). Once cryogenically frozen in it's fresh form, the hops are ground into powder and pelletized, giving us the ability to use fresh "wet" hops any time of year. The result is a Fresh/Wet Hop IPA full of distinctive bright hop notes that can only be found in hops when fresh off the bine.

The weather is going to be beautiful this weekend; see you in our forest for a pint!

BARREL-AGED TMAVÉ PIVO
Czech-style Dark L***r
7% abv

For this version of Barrel-aged Tmavé Pivo, we filled freshly emptied port w**e & bourbon barrels with our mildly roasty Czech Dark L***r. The port barrel influence is front-and-center because the final blend ratio consists of ~85% port barrels. Tons of dark fruit leather, lightly toasted tannic oak and a touch of charred wh***ey oak peak through the classic Tmavé Pivo dark l***r base.

All four of our 8 Year Anniversary b**rs are still available in our taproom so come grab them before they're gone!

ELECTRIC GRAVEYARD
Munich-style Dunkel L***r
5.5% abv

It's officially autumn and we have the perfect b**r to celebrate the arrival of spooky season!

Electric Graveyard is a true-to-style Munich Dunkel (Dark) L***r brewed entirely with German malts for glorious notes of extra toasted bread crust, nutty Munich malt, light roast coffee and delicate caramel woven throughout.

ELDER GEEZER
Barrel-aged English Barleyw**e
16.2% abv

Based on our ESB recipe, Bitter Geezer, but with an additional 2,500 pounds of barley split into a triple mash and then boiled for 24 hours for intense natural caramelization.

After fermentation, Elder Geezer rested for 19 months in a blend of heavily charred rye wh***ey barrels & lightly toasted port w**e barrels that were used to finish rye wh***ey for three years before we filled them with this robust barleyw**e.

Because of the caramel malt, dark biscuit malts, and barrel selection, we believe this is the most quintessentially malt-forward example of barleyw**e that we've released to date. When sipping Elder Geezer, we detect prominent impressions of chocolate raisin cake, brûléed figs, wh***ey pecan pie, caramelized bread pudding and old wooden to***co boxes.

We've been dreaming about making Elder Geezer for many years and we're so glad we finally carved a spot into our production schedule for it. We're currently gearing up for the first barleyw**e brew of the cold season and it's looking like Lord Maris will be returning to steer the ship. Last time he visited Munich, but where will he end up this time?
