Speedway Stout’s ominous, pitch-black appearance has become a hallmark of this modern-day classic. Chocolate and roasted malts dominate the flavor, supported by notes of dark fruit, toffee, and caramel. A healthy dose of locally-roasted coffee from Ryan Bros. Coffee, Inc. added to each batch brings out the beer’s dark chocolate flavors and enhances its drinkability. Despite its intensity, Speedway Stout’s fine carbonation and creamy mouthfeel make it very smooth and surprisingly easy to drink. This beer ages very well and will continue to mature for many years to come.
Southern Tier's celebration of the change of the seasons, a deeply comforting ale to usher in the sunset as the evenings get cooler. In salutation to that special moment in time when the year's harvest is a gracious cornucopia before us, we take a combination of English hops, cracked barley, and hard work to brew a classic English style Extra Special Bitter of the highest order. Let Harvest's deep ruby color take you away to a bright autumn mountainside where a warm sweater, a good beer, and the gratitude for the seasons are all you need.
FOOD PAIRINGS: Particularly tasty with venison, stews, aged cheeses, macaroni and cheese, roasted game.
This English Special Bitter is Ska Brewing's “Special Ale.” Special because it was the second canned microbrew in the nation (after Dale’s Pale Ale). Special because the Galena hops and pale ale malts create a crisp first sip, a hoppy tongue, and a malty sweet finish. Though “bitter” is part of the name, “better” would be a more accurate term. Fresh and lively, this canned beer suits the needs of any outdoor enthusiast.

This amber ale is the perfect balance between malt and hops. A great session beer. Sessionable and unpretentious. Our original flagship.
Proof that a beer can be both complex and balanced. Malty chewiness slowly transitioning over to herbal, earthy hops with a dry finish. Brewed to be enjoyed with friends and to stimulate serendipity.
This dark wheat beer is velvety and quaffable with typical malt aroma. Hacker-Pschorr's Weisse Dark wheat beer shimmers gently like a black opal with glint of amber. Its taste as strong as its look. A touch of caramel pleasantly spreads over the palate. Fine noses will detect nuances of apricot and clove in addition to its characteristic malt aroma. The spicy sweetness of the dark malts harmoniously combine with subtly bitter hoppy notes.
The secret of the unique taste is the use of selected wheat and barley varieties and especially the brewing process. This gives the beer its distinctive color and its delicate, velvety smooth character.
Märzen (Mayrt-zen) was historically brewed in Bavaria from March through the end of October. It was brewed dark and strong, using dark roasted Munich and caramelized Munich malt to help cover up flavor changes from the lack of refrigeration (ice in those days) used to keep the beers cold in the cellars during the warm summer months. Gordon Biersch Märzen accentuates the flavors of the dark roasted imported malted barley and exhibits a caramel malt aftertaste, while downplaying the hop level.
Boulevard Brewing Company's fall seasonal beer, Bob’s ’47 Oktoberfest is a medium-bodied, dark amber brew with a malty flavor and well-balanced hop character. With this Munich-style lager, the brewery salutes friend Bob Werkowitch, Master Brewer and graduate of the U.S. Brewer’s Academy, 1947.
