cherry double ipa - 8.9% ABV
Our Cherry Double IPA is exactly what its name implies, a strong hoppy beer brewed with cherries. The nine pounds of cherries per barrel are complimented by the generous use of Pacific Gem (from New Zealand) and Idaho Gem (from Idaho) hops. This results in a hoppy, fruity flavor that while familiar is just a little bit out of the ordinary.
10oz: $7
32oz Crowler (To Go): $14
Galloping Ghosts - scotch ale - 7.3% ABV
Our bold scotch ale is loaded with huge notes of caramel, toffee, dried fruit & vanilla. Packs a punch you never remembered you needed!

THE JOHNNY - TART ROSE ALE - 5.1% ABV
Now everyone can do The Johnny! You’ve got to sit down before you can break down!
This unique ale was brewed with strawberries, raspberries, hibiscus, just a little rose (both hips and petals) and fermented with Philly Sour yeast. The result is tart and fruity with floral highlights.
Inspiration behind the artwork:
As we bring in the "Year of the Tiger", we'd love to talk a bit more about our newest music-series beer, based off of the once in a generation talent, Annie Clark. Having seen her live show and her kick ass band this past year completely solidified the inspiration behind "The Johnny."
We created a character that dances along to her 70's inspired tunes and turns her amps up to 11. The liquid inside this beautiful can is a Tart Rose Ale that was brewed with Hibiscus, Rose Hips, Strawberries and Raspberries. Now everyone can do "The Johnny" and drink "The Johnny' too. So tell your "Young Lover" not to "Fear the Future", and whether it's a "Happy Birthday" or a "Marry Me" - come snag a four pack of The Johnny, dance your "Fast Slow Disco" or your "Slow Slow Disco"
13oz: $7
16oz Cans (To Go): $16
DON’T GO ON ME - GOLDEN ALE - 5.5% ABV
Inspiration behind the artwork:
During the recording of Vs, Pearl Jam’s second album, it was rumored that Go was written about Eddie Vedder’s loyal Toyota pickup truck - which he had also slept in during the recording according to folklore. On this can you’ll see references to the cover of the album with the sheep as well as rats underneath the truckbed.
The David J Gunn Band is a reference to Pearl Jam’s secret show at Slim’s Cafe in San Francisco shortly after they completed the recording of the album, where they were billed as the David J Gunn band after the doctor who was murdered for assisting in abortions. It seems very prevalent to this day.
16oz Can Pour: $7
Four Pack Cans (To Go): $16
LEMON YELLOW SUN - WHEAT - 5% ABV
Inspiration behind the artwork:
Eddie Vedder and composition notebooks are synonymous at this point. What we aspired to achieve was turning this notebook into Jeremy Wade Delle’s notebook (the titular character to the song). You’ll see his initials, some drawings, an homage to Green River, Mother Love Bone, Mookie Blaylock. Richardson High School’s mascot is also represented as well as cultural references of D.A.R.E. the Presidential Election and his sign off of “Later Days” from his last letter to a school friend, instead of his usual, “Write Back.”
16oz Can Pour: $7
Four Pack Cans (To Go): $16
FIST TO THE JAW - IPA - 6.9% ABV
Inspiration behind the artwork:
Evil Kneivel meets Batman. A fist to the jaw is also a little play on “hit me with a surprise left” and immediately the comic book “POW!” “WHAM!” imagery came to mind and given the Evil Kneivel and Batman references from previous tour posters and guitar pics, this just seemed perfect.
16oz Can Pour: $7
Four Pack Cans (To Go): $16
CIGAR BOX ON THE FLOOR - SMOKED PORTER - 5.7% ABV
Inspiration behind the artwork:
Immortality was often linked to the death of Kurt Cobain given the timing of the song premiering live, and of course the words “cigar box on the floor” often being referred to one of the crime scene photos. Instead of referencing the tragic loss of Kurt and drug paraphernalia, we used this concept to pay tribute to the many legends that have previously passed, yet still live on in our ears daily.
Coryell Court is a direct reference to the movie Singles which featured many of the bands from Seattle - and a garage door opener signifying the memory seemed appropriate.
Hi, How Are You? is a reference to a tshirt Kurt Cobain wore, of the Daniel Johnston song - Pearl Jam also covered Walking The Cow later that year at the Bridge School Benefit in 1994.
The Apple is in memory of Andrew Wood - Mother Love Bone.
”Come and Save Me” and the Jesus Christ picture with his eyes sewn shut is a tribute to Layne Staley - and is an image of one of his tattoos - a reference to Man in the Box by Alice in Chains.
The spiral fork was a gift from Shannon Hoon of Blind Melon to Chris Cornell. We miss all of these singers dearly.
16oz Can Pour: $7
