AMBELLINA

Spoonwood AMBELLINA

BELGIAN TRIPEL  ABV 8.2% IBU  29   Fermentables: 2-Row, Pilsner, Candi Sugar Hops: Apollo, Hallertau Blanc   A traditional Belgian golden strong ale with the addition of dry-hopping. Ambellina is built upon a simple grain bill (2-Row and Pilsner malts) with Candi Sugar to enhance fermentability. The Hallertau Blanc hops play well with the fruit and spice of the Belgian yeast, adding notes of tropical fruit and white grape. A hint of alcohol dries the finish and contributes a subtle fruitiness of its own.  

CLOUD TRIP

CLOUD-TRIP-SBC-White-IPA

WHITE IPA  ABV  6.4% Fermentables: 2-Row, Wheat, CaraPils, Oats Hops/Spices: Amarillo, Mandarina, Orange Zest, Coriander A Belgian witbier at heart. But in the kettle, it takes a turn toward IPA country. Pale and hazy from suspended yeast and proteins, and spiced with orange zest and coriander, the way a witbier ought to be. American and German hops double up the fruity character of the Belgian yeast, providing distinct orange, tangerine, and grapefruit flavors. Altogether a darn fine beer for summertime drinking.

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. It’s fake news, as far as beer styles are concerned, landing somewhere between a Strong American Porter and a Belgian Trappist Dubbel. Bruna gets its defining character from a combination of chocolate malt, Special B, and dark candi syrup, which contribute dark chocolate, dark fruit, and coffee flavors. The Belgian yeast adds fruit and spice, which blend well with the …

COLD DRIP CITY

COFFEE BLONDE   ABV 5.9% Fermentables: 2-Row, Vienna, Crystal, CaraPils, Flaked Barley, Lactose Hops: Santiam, Cascade Cold Drip City is a basic blonde ale with lactose (milk sugar) that we infuse with a strong cold-brewed coffee during carbonation. The trick is that the beer picks up a distinct coffee flavor and aroma without much color. The coffee is a robust dark roast Sulawezi bean, carefully selected by our friends at Allegheny Coffee & Tea Exchange.

WHITE HOT RAGE

BELGIAN WIT   ABV  5.0% Fermentables: 2-row, Wheat, CaraPils, Flaked Oats Hops/Spices: Ekuanot, Orange Zest, Coriander, Habanero, White Pepper “I’m sorry, but that really steams me. That really burns me up. I mean, I am filled with a White Hot Rage!” -Barney Stinson.

VAN DAMSEL

Weizenbock    ABV  7.0%   Fermentables: 2-Row, Wheat, Munich Dark, Vienna, CaraMunich, Chocolate Malt Hops: Sterling Weizenbocks come in different shapes and sizes, though all are relatively strong and incorporate a significant portion of wheat in the recipe. Ours is modeled after a classic German example, Schneider Aventinus, which is a dark wheat ale brewed to the strength of a doppelbock lager. Rich, bready malt with dark fruit aromas combine with phenols and esters from the yeast to create a flavor similar to spiced banana bread. We brew Van Damsel …

WOLKENHIMMEL

Hefeweizen ABV 6.0%. IBU 12 Fermentables: Pils, Wheat, CaraPils Hops: Santiam, Hallertau Hefeweizen is a type of German wheat beer. “Hefe” means yeast and “Weizen” means wheat. And what we have here is a wheat-heavy beer fermented with an estery, phenolic yeast. We fermented at a warmer temperature to promote the production of fruity esters like isoamyl acetate, which smells and tastes like banana. The yeast also produces phenols like 4-vinyl guaiacol, which has a spicy clove-like character. There is a heightened acidity, which together with the wheat lends a …
