    Darn tasty Porter.

    For beer lovers

    Darn tasty Barely Bitter

    For beer lovers

    Georgetown brewers decided to divert Lovely Reida sparged wort once it reached a certain concentration to the 15bbl system for a whole new beer and try their hand at an English Style Bitter.

    Darn tasty Beer Church ale

    For beer lovers

    Using a technique called "Hop Bursting", when the standard bittering hop addition is completely omitted, all the bitterness comes from late additions of high alpha hops. An experimental hop variety (HBC 366) went into the brew along with Simcoe, Cascade, and Bravo. The result is a slightly bready beer with spicy citrus, passionfruit, grass, and starfruit aromas and flavors. Brewed in conjunction with Beer Church, the hops and malt were donated with proceeds benefitting the local chapter of the Crohn's & Colitis Foundation of America.

Brewing the beer as a lager gives the beer a crisp character, brightening the passionfruit and stone fruit aromas from the Mosaic hops, but still delivering the citrus flavors and upfront bitterness of an IPA.

    Darn tasty Dunkel.

    For beer lovers

    It's more dunkel than dunkel - it's Über Dünkel. A malty, dark lager brewed from the second runnings of our Oharov Russian Imperial Stout, ÜD shares the same chocolate, coffee and toasted nut flavors. The hop selection leans "noble" with Sterling and Hersbrucker, traditionally used in European lagers, picked for their low bitterness, but spicy and earthy aromas.

    Darn tasty Belgian Pale

    For beer lovers

    Waldman is modeled after an English Ordinary Bitter with a few decidedly Belgian stylings. It is brewed with Northern Brewer hops and 36 lbs of Belgian Candi Sugar then fermented with a Belgian Ale yeast. We finish with Brettanomyces "Wild" Yeast Strain and a heavy dose of dry hops. The Brett is carried over to the bottles where Waldman continues to develop complex flavors throughout bottle conditioning.

    Darn tasty Baltic Porter

    For beer lovers

    In 2011, our friend Toby Willis started an organization, Independence Guide Dogs, that places guide dogs free of charge. Recently, brewer Tom did a lil' experimentin' on the 1.5 barrel system and brewed up a delicious Baltic Porter - rich and malty with hints of dark fruits, molasses and chocolate and a warming alcohol presence. When it came time to name the beer, we decided to name it in honor of Toby's dog, Zakai.
