  • Rice Above - Super Dry Rice Lager - 4.8% - Inspired by Japanese beers styles, brewed super dry with the use of rice. Lagered and naturally carbonated to perfect refreshment
  • Fire in the Ham - Rauchbier - 5.4% - Fire in the Ham is our take on an unfiltered rauchbier, an intensely smokey lager similar to those found in Bamberg, Germany. Most of this brew’s malt was dried over flaming beechwood, which ingrains unique smoky flavors. Aromas of campfires, smoked ham, and bacon dominate a soft malt and hop backbone.
  • Modern Märzen - Märzen - 5.4% - Our Modern series reimagines classic beer styles, inspired by our founder Jack's journey through lager breweries around the world. Modern Märzen uses new hops to recreate a centuries-old style that was traditionally brewed in the spring and lagered in caves over the summer.
  • Modern Fest - Weisn-Style Fest Lager - 5.9% - Our Modern series reimagines classic beer styles, drawing from our founder Jack's journey through breweries around the world. Inspired by the lighter, refreshing beers now enjoyed at Oktoberfest, this fest lager offers a twist on tradition and a crisp, clean lager that refines a traditional style.
