What's Brewing
Current Offerings as of 9/4/2024:
​​​​
Bureaucracy (Abbey-Style Triple) 10% ABV 14 IBU
A simple base of premium bohemian pilsner and pure cane sugar provide a rich golden canvas for our expressive Belgian yeast. Aromas of candied orange peel and orange blossom lead with a subtle hint of clove like spices and delicate banana.
​​​​
Pangloss (Helles) 5.2% ABV 19 IBU
Brilliant pale gold in color, this classic German-style lager is ever so slightly more full-bodied than a pilsner or light lager with traditional German hops balanced by a touch of malt sweetness.
​​​​
Berry Sangria Hard Seltzer 5.8% ABV
House hard seltzer infused with Ohio Tea Co's Berry Sangria Tisane. A medley of berries, rosehip, hibiscus and cherries.
​​​​
This I Know (Midwest Pilsner) 5.6% ABV 30 IBU.
Brewed with American barley and a blend of Ohio Grown Triple Pearl and E’Desem then dry hopped exclusively with E’Desem for a distinctively local twist on a classic pilsner.
​​​
A Beer of One's Own (Saison) 5.5% ABV 15 IBU
Bright and effervescent with notes of passion fruit, citrus and spices. Complex enough to contemplate, easy to crush.
Needle (Fir Tip Pale Ale) 5.8% ABV 35 IBU.
Inspired by the rich orange and pine aroma of the Concolor Fir we brewed and dry “hopped” this pale ale with fir tips from Sycamore Hollow Tree Farm. Small additions of Comet from Auburn Acres enhance the fir notes and help balance the sweetness of the malt.
​​​​
Oy, the Brave! (Graf) 6% ABV
A fitting brew for a gunslinger’s brave companions. This fusion of apple and malt is the product of fermenting sweet cider with a base of rich English malts and a pub yeast for a beer with an apple aroma, vinous body and delicate tart flavor that is deceptively more like an East Anglian farmhouse cider.
​
Cult Fiction (New England Style IPA) 7.9% ABV 54 IBU
Brewed with oats and wheat and massive additions of Cashmere, Citra, Centennial, Amarillo and Simcoe. Juicy and bursting with fruity and floral hop aromas.
​​​
Queequeg’s Quaff (American Barleywine) 9.3% ABV 60 IBU.
Heavily hopped with 5 separate additions of a blend of Simcoe and Ohio Grown Comet to balance the rich character of this big malt forward beer. Notes of sweet orange and delicate pine dominate in this decidedly too quaffable ale for such strong beer.
​​
Kindness Yet (Wee Heavy) 9.5% ABV 22 IBU
Rich in sweet malt flavor and finishing with a warming alcohol presence. In a nod to traditional brewing practice we went with a simple malt bill of Maris Otter and roast for color relying on a complex, extended boiling process to produce the styles classic caramel notes.​
​​​
Animal Farmhouse (Mixed Culture/Sour Saison) 5.5% ABV
This iteration spent 2023 aging in sauvignon blanc barrels with the blend of brettanomyces & lactobacillus started for our 2020 batch and used to for each subsequent one representing a continuing evolution from the first Codex brew to the present.
​​​​
Page Turner (American Brown Ale) 5.6% ABV 27 IBU
This dark malty brew has notes of chocolate, vanilla and toffee producing a smooth quaffable ale.
