Pure Beer Beer made in the style of Bavarian Purity Law:


Nothing but barley, hops, water and yeast.

Always On Tap

"Dirty"
Blonde Ale


ABV: 5.4%
IBU: 26

A light, crisp, Summery beer with just a bit of sass. Gently bittered and dry-hopped (or, as we like to call it, "cold hopped") with a subtle citrusy Cascade, the sweeter malt flavors really shine through.
✔️
"Jefferson"
American Pale Ale


ABV 5.7%
IBU: 75

An easy-drinking Pale Ale with a good bite, but lightly attenuated for plenty of that malty, beery flavor. Good ol' American Cascade adds a subtle citrus note.


Blends nicely into a shandy, if you're looking for a session beer.

✔️
"Leftenant Pepper's"
English IPA


ABV: 5%
IBU: 65

More evenly balanced than its American counterparts, this delicious blend of Autumn-sown barley -- together with our special blend of old world malts and hops that range from UK to Czechoslovakia in origin -- results in a full-bodied and well balanced IPA full of English flavor with a little black-pepper on the back end. We think you'll like it.
"Pretty Purple"
Porter (#5)


ABV: 5%
IBU: 20

Full of body, with a soft mouth feel, this solid, dependable porter has barely a hint of toasted chocolate. A family favorite since its inception, this is the 5th refinement ("#5") of the brewmaster's favorite recipe of his favorite style.


Darned-good stuff, if we say so, ourselves! (Also, it's not really purple!)

✔️
"Fur of the Cat"
West Coast IPA


ABV: 6.1%
IBU: 66

Crisp and hard-hitting, but with a smooth aftertaste. Not quite as "in your face" as some WC-IPAs, but plenty bold enough to hold up against any challenger.
✔️

Often on tap


(We do our best, but these beers take time!)
"Lez Böhm"
Pilsner


ABV: --%
IBU: 40

(Next batch is fermenting/lagering. Check back soon!)
✔️
"Pretty Purple"
Porter
~RESERVE~
(Barrel aging...)
✔️

Rotating taps -- when it's gone, its gone!

"Geoooooorge!!!"
Saison


ABV: 5%
IBU: 20

A light, somewhat fruity, somewhat citrusy "Summer" beer. This is for all the folk that asked for a "Hefeweizen" (a German-style, herbal wheat beer) when they really wanted a "Witbier" (Belgian style fruity/citrusy farmhouse ale). NOTE: Geoooooooorge!!! contains no wheat. 🙃


$1 from every pint of Geoooooooorge!!! sold goes to fight AML (Leukemia).

✔️
"Last Mango in Bruges"
Belgian Witbier


ABV: 5.8%
IBU: 18

A light, Summery wheat beer with just a splash of mango fruit for a sweet, refreshing flavor.

"Not Particulaly"
Hazy (New England) IPA


ABV: 5.5%
IBU: 34

Often called a "hazy" IPA, regardless of the beer's clarity, this is a less bitter, more citrusy, more "juicy" variant IPA that has come to popularity in recent years as an easier drinking alternative to the West Coast IPA.
"No Need to Argue"
Sour "Lambic" (Weissbier)


ABV: 6.8%
IBU: 11

Belgian-style wheat beer (weissbier) fermented with lambic yeast. Pucker-factor courtesy of pure 100% cranberry juice (concentrate).
"Wee Three Kings"
Pecan Pie
Scotch Ale
("Wee Heavy")

   (NITRO)


ABV: 7.5%
IBU: 25

"It tastes like Christmas!" ~Pretty-much everyone who tries it.
"Ghost Rider"
Red Ale


ABV: 6.0%-ish
IBU: 60

An American-style red ale with just a little kick to it, courtesy of a few ghost peppers.

In the fermentor,
Aging, conditioning, & etc.
