BERT DAY (BLONDE ALE)
A malt focused, yet crisp drinker brewed with Madarina Bavaria hops. Soft notes of orange marmalade and vanilla wafer. 5%abv
TUGBOAT (AMERICAN lager)
When the mini pulls the mighty – as we can say in the world of beer, tides have turned. It is an especially wonderful time to be a beer drinker but avast ye before the surly sea swallows ya. One may have to sail way outside the mapped territory to discover the treasure in simplicity and the virtues of restraint. As far off shore as we have buoyed, many astute craft beer drinkers have reconnected with their native tongues. Before there were so many exotic ingredients available to landlubbers, there was a small, seaworthy, and valiant vessel of a beer. American lager in all it’s unpretentious glory has found safe harbor in the craft beer canon while the titanics sink under the mass of shrewd industry. We are excited to see the community reconnect craft to the essentials and tug some of these bloated boats out of the murk. 4.7% abv.
HEFTY FEE (SESSION IPA)
What price freedom? Some may say it is a hefty fee. Which must be why some borrow to keep it around. A punch of Mosaic hops arrive to collect what the nose owes. On the hot side, an overdue hop bill adds up to bright notes of berry and limeade from thriftless amounts of Nelson and Motueka hops. All leveraged by honey gold notes from the finest Canadian malts. A delicious, low abv hoppy beer that tastes expensive yet offers a refreshing break from the debt of a life born free. 4.8% abv
self titled (belgian style saison)
A beer so lovely we named a brewery for it. Self Titled is a petit saison beer with a refreshingly crisp, wheat kissed body designed for play in the sun. Fresh baked french bread and biscuit support notes of white grape and marmalade from Nelson Sauvin hops. A noble guide to delicate flavors and subtlety. 5.4% abv
sound and color (coffee BROWN ALE)
With me, for my mind… Layered notes of chocolate, raisin, cherry tobacco, biscotti pluck the bassline for carefully roasted coffee beans to dance the day away. 5.8% abv
THE RUBE (RED RYE ALE)
Your mid day Manhattan. Notes of sweet caramel, bitter grapefruit, and spicy rye. Draper’s delight 8% abv
PEEL TOP (EXTRA PALE ALE)
Nectar like notes of mango and tangerine in a bready and balanced pale ale. The pale ale has been many a beer drinkers jump off point and we are proud to offer this take on a classic highlighting some of our favorite contemporary hops. abv 6%
DOUBLE NICKELS (pale ale)
Brewed to a calculated 55 ibus and 5.5% abv or double nickels on the dime. Angular notes of ruby red grapefruit, sweet orange, and pine strum upon a groovy bassline of light honey and vanilla in a compact yet satisfying little ditty. A liquid tribute to a group of cats from San Pedro who jam econo – or fitting a lot into a little. “Punk was whatever we made it to be” a quote from late lead singer/guitarist D Boon inspires every recipe Ive ever brewed. Listen to the Minutemen, their band could be your life.
A gold medal winner in the 2024 World Beer Cup for American Pale Ale!
Gimme (ipa)
The perfect course companion. On the green with hoppy notes of tropical fruits and candied citrus. Wheat malt tees a subtle tart snap and caddies a medium bodied, easy swinger. An ace, or at least close enough amongst friends, now gimme another! 7.2% abv
ourglass (ipa)
-to celebrate the passing time we all share- This abiding brew, built to commemorate our birth by the creek in San Juan Capistrano years back, is a testament to all we have learned since the beginning a few turns ago. Many a glass been drained as many a friend made along the way and our gratitude deepens. A union we have discovered deliciously compatible is the harmonious coupling of Mosaic and Nelson Sauvin hops. Notes of bright berry, punchy citrus and shortbread kindly share this glass with you. We hope for you to share a few good times and pints with friends before the sand runs out. To take time to celebrate the OUR in hourglass. After all, you are a little wiser and a tad older than when you started reading this. So let’s drink to that – and the passing time! 6.5% abv

udo (german style ipa)
Straight from the Fatherland that gave me my Father, an all German ingredient IPA built to celebrate the man who I call Pop! If you ask him, he’ll tell you we have the best beer! Showcasing a newer school of German cultivars with Huell Melon and Mandarina Bavaria – these hops for pops include reliably cordial notes of orange peel, honeydew melon, and Gardenia upon a sturdy and traditional German grain build. Raise a glass and prost to the man largely responsible for my beer making instincts but please, dont hold it against him. 6.6% abv
NEW NOISE (ipa)
Simcoe, #586, and Mosaic hops shape the beer to come. Loud notes of pineapple kush, pine and dark berries. Woo! 7% abv
EXTRA FEES (DOUBLE IPA)
Extra notes of raspberry jam, lime citrus and dark fruits from Nelson, Motueka and Mosaic hops. Hefty Fees big bro! 8.5% abv. .
SUPER TONIC (COFFEE OATMEAL STOUT)
Musically speaking, the second note of the diatonic scale, or one step above Tonic. In our terms, a more potent elixir than the original. Infused with more flavors of milk chocolate, more roast, more mouthfeel, and most important – more coffee. Whoever said there can be too much of a good thing never had a chance to try this here beer. A wiser man once said – everything in moderation, especially moderation. Cheers to that, and you! 8.5% abv *available on NITRO
NO QUARTER PORTER (CHOCOLATE PORTER)
