Belgian Strong Golden ABV 8.8% 32 IBU Fermentables: 2-Row Pale, Pils, CaraPils, Candi Sugar Hops: Horizon, Styrian Celeia Our brewer’s favorite beer.

BRUNA
Belgian Porter ABV 7.1% IBU 30 Fermentables: 2-row, Munich, Chocolate Malt, Special B, Candi Syrup Hops: Cascade, Crystal One of our seven “original lineup” beers, and a brewer favorite.
