What’s On Tap
Our Line Up of Beers
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.
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.
Prop 65
West Coast IPA
6.7% ABV.
An orange, full bodied pour with an enduring foamy white head. A caramel maltiness balances the big west coast hop bitterness. The hops magnum, simco, columbus, centennial and cascade together exhibit big aromas of pineapple, citrus and pine.
The 1986 California Proposition 65, (previously known as The Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, and also referred to as Prop 65) is a California law passed to protect drinking water from toxic substances that could cause cancer or birth defects and eliminate exposures to chemicals.
Banana vs Clove
Wheat Beer - Hefeweizen
3.8% ABV.
A light, refreshing wheat beer that’s perfect for hot summer days. Banana vs Clove showcases a balance of both of these flavors, starting with banana then giving way to clove on the finish.
Join us in celebrating this harmonious battle of tastes, and let "Banana vs Clove" become your go-to beer for sunny afternoons and laid-back gatherings. Cheers to the perfect summer brew!
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.
Miracle on Hickory Street
Winter Ale
6.5% ABV.
Hoppy English Brown 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 a fire.
Meaning behind the name: If you know anything about the history of The Vogt House and the construction of the building, you know, the project getting completed and finally opening last December was a miracle! Also a nod to the Movie with a similar name, where Santa ends up on trial at Christmas time.
