ON TAP IN SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO

On Tap — San Juan Capistrano

• 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 Minute- men, their band could be your life.

• Frisbee

  Mexican Style Lager

  Picture this- A sunny beach, light breeze, waves rhythmically crashing on glistening sand. The familiar pop and hiss of a fresh opened beer, a sip brings you to your paradise. Swimsuits, palm trees and a cold brew. Now turn off the TV and grab ahold of real refreshment. Inspired by a style honed in the old country, reimagined south of the border and the perfect sip for your own endless summer. This is a beer without a multi million dollar ad campaign, without bikinis and target markets. Just a simple, crisp and easy drinking beer brewed w pilsner malt, maize and hints of a certain citrus fruit provided by Motueka hops. Save a lime, drink a frisbee.

• Geedorah

  Double IPA

  When a meteorite from Venus crashes onto Monster Island one can only hope it is not actually an egg. Geedorah is hatched with intent to raze and ravage the planet. This golden dragon comprised of three heads of the most assertive, fire-breathing hops known Mosaic, Nelson, and Amarillo - to make a worthy advesary of even the great Godzilla, king of the monsters. A smooth bodied, well disguised 8.1% monster of a brew. You can help defeat this beast glass by glass until he is sent back to space from whence he came, saving humanity and leaving our own Earthly monsters to business as usual. The End... or is it?

• 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!

• Grandpappy

  Imperial Stout

  Greet a glass full of dark chocolate, graham cracker, dried cherry, and espresso in this rich and complex brew. A fireside storyteller of a beer, Grandpappy's tale unfolds with each sniff and sip. Elder sweetness tempered by a wisecracking bitterness. Throw another log on and sit back and sip.

• Handful

  Helles

  So we can talk about the handful of grain and hops in this subtle classic, we can talk about the hands that twist the knobs and turn the valves and we can talk about the handful of time it took to create this handful of beer. We can talk about what a handful my kids are and be grateful to have a handful. We can raise our glasses and cheers to having a hand that's full.

• PilsZen

  German Pilsener

  Like spiritual pursuit, pilsner takes presence and patience. The cold conditioning of a lagered beer acts just as the rest between thoughts - dropping away all impurities until what is within is cleansed and clarity achieved. When in proper balance, the polarity of malt sweetness and hop bitterness dissolves the illusion of duality in the dance of delicious oneness. A beer of sage subtlety to be contemplated and savored for all of the serenity in its aged wisdom. A divine devotion to the one who makes the grass green.

• Pretty Alright

  Grisette

  Pretty Alright is actually really good! Modest and slight - this anti-hype beer is everything we love about Belgian styles without the high ABV. A loving ode to a workingman's brew from the old country. Nothing fancy here, just a crisp and refreshing crusher with notes of fresh coun- try bread, lemon meringue, and gardenia blooms wrapped up with a bright, peppery finish. We dont like to toot our own horns, but you are welcome to...

  An exhibit in simplicity / hops and a grain on a carbonated crime spree Strata and Mosaic spin / a gold toned rope to lasso your nose in Held for ransom / Oh's in tandem / Every glass grab a new slab of fandom Every sip eclipse the last mug you glugged from Hold the cold one that stole the show for fun Take a whiff get your mind blown / Cheers to clear beers / Watch him shine like a rhinestone...cowboy

• 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 elixer 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!

• The Rube

  Red Rye Ale

  A yokel, a country bumpkin. Rustic w/ his own refined dignity. Bold yet balanced, audacious but approachable. Malt and hops in harmonious heft. Sweet caramel and spicy rye balanced by an assertive, candied grapefruit bitterness in this easy drinking red ale. Inspired by the classic cocktail, the Rube is your mid-day Manhattan.
