Fruited Sour
Limited Release
4.14 out of 5 points – Untappd
Brewer’s Description
Super Slurp Fruited Sour Ale with Blueberry, Raspberry, Vanilla, and Lactose!
This fruited sour beer was brewed with lactose, aged on Madagascar vanilla beans, and uses a healthy portion of ripe raspberry and juicy blueberry. The tart taste of blue-raspberry together with the richness of vanilla beans and lactose creates the perfect combination of sweet and sour. Just like the slurpies you had as a kid!

Daybreak
Wolf’s Ridge Brewing, OH
Cream Ale
Year-Round
3.85 out of 5 points – Untappd
Brewer’s Description
Just as the break of a new day ushers in endless possibilities, this provocative variant of our popular Clear Sky Cream Ale awakens new and intriguing tastes. We infuse our pre-prohibition styled ale with light roast beans from Columbus’ own One Line Coffee in addition to robust vanilla. What results is an aroma that defies convention and a flavor that opens up like the new morning.

Terrifico Italian-Style Horror Pils
Wayfinder Beer, OR
Pilsner
Limited-Release Collaboration
Brewer’s Description
Inspired by the crazy expressive new-world riffs on German-style pilsners being made in Italy, which are typically dry-hopped with modern Euro hops. Taking some hints from the Italians, we hopped this with 2#/bbl of spice heavy German hops; Spalt Select and Tettnanger. Then we dry-hopped it with Polaris and more Tettnanger, krausened with fresh Czech Pils wort, spunded and cold-conditioned to perfection.
ABV: 4.7%
