MAKE ME WANNA STOUT
COFFEE AND CREAM STOUT
RELEASE DATE: 8/30
Made for Sunday mornings. We brewed this beer specifically for football Sundays in Western New York! This coffee and cream stout is brewed with Revolution coffee beans from Public Espresso. Besides the rich coffee taste, this beer features a light roast from the roasted barley, a light sweet finish from the milk sugar, and a creamy body from the oatmeal. Let’s Go Buffalo! 5.2% ABV
CINNAMON APPLE
AMBER ALE
RELEASE DATE: 8/31
Apples are the state fruit of New York. We wanted to brew a beer that incorporated our state fruit to properly celebrate autumn in New York State. We use locally pressed cider from New York state apples and locally grown 2-row barley to create our fall seasonal. This beer also incorporates cinnamon, allspice, oatmeal and brown sugar. Savor this beer and enjoy autumn in Western New York. 6.5% ABV
BEER THAT TASTES LIKE BEER: OKTOBERFEST
RELEASE DATE: 9/2
We love beer because of the diversity of styles that can be produced from the four basic ingredients of malt, hops, yeast, and water. But, in a world where it seems like craft beer is increasingly tasting similar (not that we have anything against juicy IPAs and fruited sours), we wanted to shine a light on “beer that tastes like beer” to keep us from forgetting why we fell in love with craft beer in the first place. This German-style malty lager features notes of toasted bread, fig, and a light touch of honey on the finish, with a fairly light and refreshing body for the style. 6.0% ABV.
DEVIL CHICKEN
DOUBLE DRY-HOPPED IPA
RELEASE DATE: 9/2
No chickens were harmed during the making of this devilishly good hop bomb of an IPA. Yet.
We started the brew with sticky Galaxy and Mosaic hops, added flaked oats to smooth out the bitterness, added a touch of Cashmere hops to add stone fruit and pineapple notes, then double dry-hopped the beer to up the hop intensity. You’ve been warned, chickens. 6.8% ABV
ELECTROPOSITIVITY
IPA
RELEASE DATE: 9/2
This collaboration between Big Ditch Brewing Company from Buffalo, NY and Underground Beer Lab from Syracuse, NY blended our collective brewing science knowledge to create an IPA like neither of our breweries have made before. Featuring Nelson Sauvin, Motueka, and Strata hops, then mash hopped with New York State Cascade hops and fermented with Cosmic Punch yeast, this beer features flavors of white grape, honeydew and passion fruit, with notes of grapefruit and peach. 6.3% ABV.
