That other brewery posting cat pictures is ripping us off. You can’t drink fancy beer here, but you can drink fancy beer at our taproom Mousetrap.
Just in time for January, our first NA beverage!! Day of the Jaguar is a Chicha de Molle inspired NA beer. Peruvian purple corn added to the mash creates a stunning scarlet color with pink hued foam and rich cereal aromatics.

One nice thing about lists is a single person made a conscious decision to include you and that’s a nice feeling. For us it’s generally going to be like 6 best American sahtis with a bear on the label currently being brewed or 10 breweries to avoid if you really like hazy ipas 😘

Beer for Hoops - Inspired by the peach basket used as a hoop in the first ever game of basketball, our cream ale gets a healthy dose of fruit flavor from peach puree and additional sweetness from vanilla along with sweet stone fruit notes from hot side hop additions.

Double Release at Mousetrap!
Bare Bear - Michael Jackson claimed “Sahti is the only primitive beer to survive in Western Europe. The beer that peasants learned to brew in the 1500s is still made much the same way today.” Here’s our interpretation of this traditional Finnish beer.

This snowstorm ain’t no joke. We’re not trying to have people trekking in to avoid the roads and then losing their shoes in the snow like paulie walnuts and then blaming us for their cold, wet feet and battered spirits. That’s not our style. So we’re heading home at 5:30 and you should stay home.
