What’s On Tap
Our Line Up of Beers
Slap on the wrist
Irish Red Ale
5.8% ABV.
A malt forward, easy drinking Irish red ale. Notes of Caramel, toffee and chocolate with a deep red color.
You’ve heard the common saying “a slap on the wrist,” a mild reprimand or punishment for bad behavior. Due to the fact that this Irish Red is a lesser ABV than our OG Irish Style Red, called Red Handed, we thought it was fitting.
Amicus Curiae
Kölsch
4.5% ABV.
Traditional easy drinking Kölsch with a light body, transparent orange color and malt forward flavor. Traditional noble hops (Saaz) add balance to round out this crispy treat.
Amicus Curiae means "Friend of the Court" in Latin.
Face The Music
Vienna
5.2% ABV.
Carmel colored light bodied Vienna lager. With slight hints of toasted biscuit, toffee and roasted barley.
Named after the city of Vienna, known as the "World Capital of Music," and the saying "Face the Music" - accepting punishment for one's actions.
By the Book
Dunkelweizen
5.6% ABV.
A flavorful cross between a German-style dunkel and a hefeweizen, brewed with darker grains. Translating to “dark wheat” in German, this beer strikes a perfect balance with creamy wheat, rich maltiness, and notes of banana, clove, bread, toast, and caramel. With a smooth, medium-full body, it pairs well with roasted chicken, gouda, and banana cream pie.
This style dates back to 1516 in Bavaria, where the Purity Law (Reinheitsgebot) allowed only water, barley, and hops in beer to keep wheat and rye available for bakers. Hence the name "By the Book."
Solitary Confinement
Baltic Porter
6.9% ABV.
Medium bodied malt forward lager with notes of milk chocolate and coffee. Light noble hop presence.
Legal-Ease
Helles
4.4% ABV.
A traditional Bavarian Helles style lager. Super light bodied and straw yellow with notes of fresh baked bread and classic Hallertau Mittelfrüh noble hops.
A crushable light lager.
Offshore Trust
Hazy IPA
5.1% ABV.
A hazy IPA full of fruity hop flavors. Pours straw yellow with a pillowy with a white head. The hops are the star of this beer (Alora & Idaho 7), showcasing a blend of pineapple, orange, mango and papaya flavor.
Named after a trust created in a foreign country to protect assets from domestic creditors. Protecting someone from lawsuits or to maintain privacy.
Fire pit Amber Ale
Amber Ale
6.5% ABV.
Hoppy Amber Ale that pours clear with notes of caramel and dark fruits. The moderate herbaceous hop character balances the malt backbone and medium body. At 6.5% ABV this beer is perfect for nights at the pub or warming up by the firepit.
Sod's Law
Dry Irish Stout
ON NITRO
4.8% ABV.
Dry Irish Stout served on nitro. A roasted coffee aroma with hints of dark chocolate and herbal bitterness. A classic dry finish and creamy head.
Named after the British saying, if something can go wrong, it will. (While Murphy's law says that anything that can go wrong, will go wrong (eventually), Sod's law requires that it will always go wrong with the worst possible outcome or at the worst time and... we've been there.)
The Verdict is PINK
Sour – Fruited Berliner Weisse
NOW ON NITRO!
4.2% ABV.
A fruited kettle soured Berliner weisse
German wheat beer with strawberries and hibiscus. A bready aroma gives way to flavors of tart hibiscus and summer strawberries with a dry champagne like finish.
This beer was created to honor Breast Cancer Awareness Month. This charity beer was inspired by our team to support breast cancer research and raise funds for local organizations making a real difference. A portion of every pint sold in October goes directly to two impactful causes, Embrace Emily and Y-Me, as we join together in the fight against breast cancer.

Crolwers: Banging Gavel offer to go 32oz CROWLERS. - Not to be confused with glass screw top growlers, CROWLERS are sealed 32oz cans.
Why Crowlers? CROWLERS allow Banging Gavel to control the cleanliness and sanitation, while giving the beer a longer fridge life. Where a crowler can last 3-5 days in a refrigerator, a growler should be consumed within 25hrs of filling.
Banging Gavel strives for the best customer experience, whether they are enjoying our beer onsite or at home. Crowlers keep beer fresher longer.
